  • LCSW

Welcome—I’m Christine Stryjewski, LCSW, CADC, and the founder of Affirm Behavioral Health. I’m glad you’re here.

I see asking for help as an act of courage and care. It means something matters to you, and you’re ready for change.

My path as a therapist was shaped by years of walking with people through some of life’s hardest seasons. My professional background includes behavioral health, substance use and co-occurring disorders, medical and oncology social work, and healthcare administration.

Your story might involve anxiety, depression, trauma, ADHD, relationship struggles, substance use, a major life transition, or feeling overwhelmed by everything happening at once. Sometimes you can name exactly what’s wrong, and sometimes you just know you don’t feel like yourself anymore.

That’s where therapy can help.

My approach is compassionate, practical, and trauma-informed. I want our work together to feel steady and judgment-free—a place to be honest, understand yourself more clearly, and build tools that truly fit your life, so you can move forward with greater confidence.
