Christine Whittaker

Very caring, compassionate, understanding and got to the root of the issue unlike other therapists could. She was really helpful!

I highly recommend Christine, I have been doing online counseling with her for over 6 months and she is so insightful and helpful!

I actually have not been seen by her; however, I tried calling the phone number (813)240-0855 five seperate times today and the phone is never working! In my opinion, this is unacceptable, especially with all the tech support out there. People are in crisis, and have no one to turn to, I'm finding it extremely hard to find help at all!

Christine is so helpful, knowledgeable and kind, she has helped me find who I am again and has helped me learn coping skills to help me stay this way and still have relationships. I have been to other therapists in the past who were not very helpful, I have had my first session with her two months ago and I am so excited for session day every week! I highly recommend Christine!

Christine has been so helpful to our family, I have been to 4 therapists before we so luckily found her last month! I wish we would have went to see her first. My husband as we learned had a high conflict personality and he was verbally abusing me and our children. She has begun to help us like no other therapist has. She is helping the whole family find ways to talk about our feelings and get through our family problem she has also been teaching my husband how to reframe thoughts and manage his anger. She is wonderful with making sure each of are heard and understood and she responds with such honest care and compassion. She knows exactly what each of need and gives the tolls to practice at home in between our sessions. I feel so empowered and proud that I have the skills to stand up to him and communicate instead of being scared of him. I am so excited for our weekly sessions!

I have worked with Christine Professionally, she is excellent with identifying individual and family dynamics and unhealthy patterns that make an environment for a child unhealthy. The reports written are intended to be long as there are certain protocol that need to be followed. The conclusion of the report is intended to re-cap or summarize important information from the report, it may be redundant information but necessary and important. Many times the summary/conclusion of the report is the only part of the report that the professionals involved read, unless requested to read the entirety of the report. Christine is very detailed and comprehensive, many times during interviews with collateral sources the information is different than how a parent may perceive it or how a parent reports it. Christine is one of the most ethical, fair and honest person I have had the pleasure to work with. The only reason she moved was for family reasons to caretake an older relative.

I would never recommend her to anyone. Her work is extremely sloppy and her reports confuse names and events of providers and clients. I had heard that she lost her license to practice in USA and moved to Europe. How she has gotten away with what she has done is outrageous! She has also lied on many occasions.

If I could leave no stars I would. Christine is highly unprofessional. She convoluted information to fit her agenda to be able to milk family court for more sessions and reports to make more money. He reports we highly inaccurate. She literally copied and pasted information just to make the report longer to be able to bill more. Most of the information she regurgitated was completely inaccurate and totally false. If you are looking for a therapist to help your family she is not the one. You could just give her money and let her abuse your children that would at least save you the time of having to hear her make no sense at all. I really think she may be on some kind of mood altering substance. She was very swollen and seemed out of it 90% of the time.

She is a wonderful specialist psychologist who can easily understand my problem and help to make me stronger to deal with it.

She has no business evaluating legal parental matters. She is bias from the start and can not manage to use her degree to see when she herself is being lied to. She is utterly incompetent and has helped me to lose my children to the wrong parent. If you want to lose your kids then go ahead and hire this hack.

She is fantastic. She is straightforward, no nonsense and honest. She quickly identifies, understands and reports the truth. Very helpful.

Christine Whitaker is amazing at what she does. She's honest. She's understanding. She's compassionate. And most importantly, she listens... like, REALLY listens by hearing the exact words you're saying, allows you time to feel what you're feeling and without judgement, validates your feelings, and only then does she offer guidance to help you maneuver through those feelings rationally and successfully. To say I highly recommend is an understatement.

I have to score. I doubt that I'm the first, but this needs to be addressed. Ms. Christine Whittaker from the first visit sided with the children's mother, relating to the lies. Off the back I did not catch her unprofessionalism in taking sides due to gender/race. Due to this her evaluation, in which her and the other party submitted to the court has been bias. Being treated unfairly is not justice being served. This has caused heartbreak not just for me but for my little ones.

I came to Christine because she was referred to me by my attorney for help with my children's father. During my first visit I felt very comfortable with her and she was very knowledgeable about the parenting legal issues and how to help us. She was approved by the judge to do a parent assessment on my children's father and family counseling to help both of my kids. I highly recommend her and my attorney was happy with what she did, she helped my case.

I brought my son to see her and we have had wonderful results! She was very courteous in scheduling appointments during her after hour time and she didn't charge more money for seeing us for evening appointments. She kept every appointment that was scheduled and even worked with my son's school guidance counselor to help my son with his issues. My son felt very comfortable talking with her and is doing so much better, we were able to stop therapy and he can now manage his issues.

I have never had a problem with cancelled appointments with this therapist. My husband and I have been seeing her for 3 months, she is very knowledgeable and caring I really feel she wants to help and she definitely did help. She hit the nail on the head with what needed help in our situation and she has given us tools that have helped us a lot.

I feel as though she means well and is a nice person, however, I do not feel she is the most organized.She cancelled family counseling sessions on my family twice in a month period. She rarely has followed through with appointments, and doesn't notify me about the actions of my child's father til weeks later. Do not recommend.
