Christine Ballenger is a licensed clinical psychologist with over 25 years of experience in the mental health field. Christine earned her Master of Science degree in Applied Clinical Psychology in 1998 and her Doctor of Clinical Psychology degree in 2002. Over the last two decades, Dr. Ballenger has worked in multiple capacities of specialized psychological care. Her professional opportunities have allowed for extensive experience in providing clinical diagnoses, psychological evaluations, and treatment of psychological disorders for children, adolescents, and adults of all ages. Dr. Ballenger is pleased to have offered her evaluation and treatment services across a wide array of populations and clinical settings including multi-county youth service centers, domestic violence centers, the behavioral health unit of the Indian Healthcare Resource Center of Tulsa, the Tulsa County Drug Court system, and diverse outpatient treatment facilities across the country. Throughout her career, Christine has also truly enjoyed consulting with fellow colleagues and clinical providers, serving on various community boards including graduated sanctions panels, wraparound service panels, and a number of diverse mental health coalitions. Fifteen years ago, Dr. Ballenger established and began operating her own independent private practice. Throughout her varied experiences, Christine ultimately found herself particularly drawn to the specific issues and treatment of women. This precise interest led to Dr. Ballenger's current clinical practice, which focuses exclusively on the promotion of psychological health in adult women. Christine feels honored to ever potentially be a small part in the healing of any hurting woman.
