ABOUT Me

Words that heal. Stories that connect. Content that matters.

Hi, I’m Christina Ditchkofsky—a trauma-informed nurse, writer, and author of Burnt Letters. I believe words should do more than fill a page; they should connect, comfort, and move people to action.

With over 13 years of nursing experience, I’ve walked with patients and families through some of life’s hardest moments. I’ve worked in cardiac step-down, corrections, drug rehab, behavioral health, and medical oncology. I’ve been a nurse educator, and I had the honor of serving as a clinical research nurse at the National Institutes of Health during COVID. Along the way, I earned my Progressive Care Certification (PCCN) and became a certified Journal Therapy Coach.

That background shapes everything I write. I know the science, but I also understand the soul—the human side of healthcare and communication that builds trust and sparks connection.

Through Healing Ink RN, I bring together my clinical expertise, PMHNP training, and love of storytelling to help businesses, organizations, and individuals find the right words for the right people. From healthcare articles to brand copy, I craft content that is clear, compassionate, and impactful.

I also promote LifeWave patches—a non-invasive, drug-free wellness tool I’ve personally found supportive for sleep, energy, and recovery. For me, it’s another way to share resources that help people feel whole in both body and mind.

I don’t show up polished or perfect—I show up real. And I believe that’s what makes words work: honesty, empathy, and creativity.

When I’m not writing, you’ll find me painting, walking my rescue dogs (Willow, Hank, and Larry), or sketching out the next big idea with a coffee in hand.

Let’s create words that heal, stories that connect, and content that truly matters.
