Christine Collins, M.A., LCPC, NCC, CADC
Clinical Director / Therapist
Primary Areas of Care: Addiction, Mood Disorders, and Life Transitions
I am the Clinical Director, a supervisor and a licensed clinical professional counselor with Cornerstone Counseling Center of Chicago. I work with clients who want to change their thoughts and behaviors that keep them from experiencing fulfilled and genuinely happy lives. I focus on creating a safe space to develop a therapeutic relationship with you. I use a direct approach, more action-oriented that helps you gain clarity of “how I got here” and moves you towards your goals. I treat stress and anxiety, depression, mood disorders, personality disorders, and alcohol and other substance use issues. My experience ranges from working in outpatient hospital settings, community mental health centers, and private practice. In addition, I will integrate spirituality and Christian perspectives at your request. My passion and gift for helping others led to me to my calling, becoming a clinical mental health therapist. My belief is that each of us has unique gifts, and our life journey is to discover them, and it is then that we can feel content and enjoy our lives.
