Christina Simmons is an integrative trauma therapist, educator, and founder of Revitalizing Inner Self Essence®, LLC. As a Black, queer woman, she is deeply committed to creating liberatory, identity-affirming healing spaces where Black women and women of color can heal, be seen, and reclaim their power.

​

With over a decade of experience, Christina blends evidence-based clinical approaches like EMDR, Hypnosis, and Somatic Experiencing with ancestral healing, mind-body medicine, and energy psychology. Her practice centers the whole person—mind, body, spirit, and culture—because healing doesn’t stop at the surface. It’s a layered, lived process.

Christina began her career in child welfare and later became a domestic violence advocate, where she worked closely with women navigating trauma, grief, and systemic injustice. Frustrated by the limits of traditional models, she chose to become the kind of therapist she wished existed—one who could walk beside clients through the full arc of healing, not just refer them out.
