Christie offers steady, collaborative support and helps clients break big problems into manageable steps. The goal is clearer thinking, better coping, and usable strategies for moving forward.

How therapeutic approaches fit with online care

Christie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors. CBT is practical and works well for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.

She also draws on client-centered therapy to make sessions feel collaborative and respectful. This approach focuses on listening and helping people find their own solutions. Motivational interviewing is used when someone wants help finding motivation to change, such as reducing substance use or building healthier habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the work she does with each person. Christie will talk through goals and preferences and then shape the plan together. That way the methods match what the client needs and what feels doable for them.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and practicing skills. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or movement is an issue. Live chat and messaging allow brief check-ins, coaching moments, and ongoing support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy routine and try different ways of communicating as needs change.
