Full Bio

If you’re feeling overwhelmed—whether it’s navigating a difficult life situation, balancing the demands of motherhood, or helping your child heal from trauma—you don’t have to do it alone. Healing is possible, and it starts with finding the right support.

I’m Christine Mark-Griffin, founder and clinical director of Spark All Wellness, where my team and I are dedicated to helping children, teens, families, and mothers rediscover their strength and resilience. At Spark All Wellness, we specialize in EMDR therapy and trauma-informed yoga to provide healing tailored to each individual’s needs.

As the author of the award-winning EMDR Workbook for Kids and founder of EMDR for Kids, I’ve spent my career empowering children and their families to process trauma and thrive. I am also a lead trainer for Transcending Trauma Through Yoga and a certified yoga instructor with additional child yoga certifications. In my practice , I often integrate evidence based practices such as EMDR & play therapy with yoga and other body-based practices to bridge the mind-body connection, releasing trauma and rebuilding safety and empowerment.

Additionally, I specialize in perinatal mental health, supporting mothers through the emotional challenges of pregnancy, postpartum, and NICU experiences. For me, it’s about more than therapy—it’s about creating an authentic, welcoming space where clients of all ages can express themselves, explore their experiences, and gain tools to build resilience. Whether through evidence-based therapies like EMDR, CBT, and play therapy, or creative approaches like yoga, art, and music, I strive to make healing intuitive, engaging, and deeply personal.

Therapy is a journey of growth, empowerment, and reconnection to your best self. Together, let’s uncover the tools, strength, and hope you need to create a brighter, more balanced future for you and your family.
