Christine M. Nicholson, Ph.D.

Welcome to MyWorryDoctor.com. I'm Christine Nicholson aka the Worry Doctor.

The primary focus of my private practice is the treatment of troubled children and teens. Treatment may extend to all members of the family because each individual influences the growth and healing of the patient. I specialize in the effects of divorce, family violence, and early attachment issues and their effect on the development of the Self. I believe protecting, understanding and nurturing the health and welfare of our children and their caregivers helps insure a better future for us all.
