Christine Hanna (#82185) is a licensed clinical social worker who earned her Masters degree in Social Work from the prestigious program at the University of Southern California. She has been practicing social work since 2001, and has comprehensive experience working with individuals with OCD, anxiety, PTSD, at-risk youth, and people experiencing stress due to major life transitions.

Christine joins the Beachfront Anxiety Specialists team with extensive agency and clinical experience. In addition to her work at Beachfront, she currently serves as a program director for a local boutique residential treatment center for individuals with more severe OCD and anxiety struggles. She integrates exposure and response prevention, acceptance and commitment therapy, and psychoanalytic methods to help her clients feel immediate relief from symptoms while being able to navigate her clients through deeper work to affect long lasting change.

Online or in-person. I also offer extended session times which are often appropriate for clients seeking relief from OCD, as it allows for enough time to practice behavior change strategies in session. Typically, meetings are weekly or bi-weekly.
