Chrissy Mobley-Gilmore, LPC

Chrissy Mobley-Gilmore is a licensed professional counselor with more than 15 years of experience. She uses a practical, client-centered approach to help people facing depression, anxiety, grief, and other life changes. Sessions are collaborative and focus on real problems and real steps forward.

She often uses cognitive behavioral therapy, which helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going. She also brings client-centered methods that focus on listening and understanding each person’s experience. Dialectical behavior therapy techniques and mindfulness are used when emotion regulation and coping skills are priorities.

Chrissy's background includes work alongside medical settings as a registered nurse and years in counseling roles. That mix gives her a practical view of issues like chronic pain, illness, and caregiver stress as well as matters such as addiction, trauma, and co-occurring concerns. She draws on that experience to make plans that fit a person’s life and needs.

In sessions, the focus is on clear goals and doable steps. Conversations are interactive and plans are tailored to the individual's circumstances. Motivational interviewing helps when someone is unsure about change or needs support finding momentum.

She works with a wide range of concerns including relationship struggles, parenting stress, body image, eating issues, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and career pressures. People can expect straightforward guidance, skill-building, and practical strategies aimed at steady progress.

How evidence-based approaches work online

Chrissy commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy and client-centered methods in her online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression; it is practical and goal oriented. Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening, empathy, and collaborating on goals so people feel heard while they work through challenges.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy skills when strong emotions and distress tolerance are a concern. DBT techniques teach specific coping skills for managing intense feelings and improving communication in stressful moments. Together these approaches give both skill-building exercises and a supportive space to practice them.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to decide what fits your needs and goals, and adjust methods over time based on what helps. Online sessions make that collaboration easy to maintain across a range of formats.

Chrissy offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and skill practice, phone can be a good alternative when bandwidth is limited, live chat works for focused check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options let clients fit care into busy lives and keep progress steady.
