Christine Wolf

Christine Wolf, MSW-LICSW is a psychotherapist, bilingual clinical social worker, and mother. Born in Germany to WWII refugees and raised in Venezuela, Christine immigrated to the United States at age twenty, living first in Cambridge, Massachusetts and later settling in the adjacent town of Belmont to raise a family. After earning her undergraduate degree at the University of Massachusetts-Boston and her master’s degree at Smith College School for Social Work, Christine went on to enjoy a long career in the field, leading seminars, trainings, and working with at-risk youth both in a Boston area community health center and the public school system. Her work with those suffering trauma and the long-term effects of violence was further informed by her own experiences as the mother of a murder victim and as a child of refugees. Her memoir, "Speak for Me, Mom: A Murder, a Trial, and a Mother’s Enduring Love," chronicles her experiences in the aftermath of her teenage son's murder and during the trial of his accused killer.
