How her approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following each person's pace. In practice that means the therapist prioritizes understanding concerns and helping clients name their goals before offering strategies. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing different behaviors to reduce anxiety or lift mood. This approach is useful for stress, anxiety, depression, and eating-related worries.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then shape sessions together. That collaboration helps tailor concrete exercises and communication tools to the client's life.

Session logistics and formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm available online options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow quicker check-ins between obligations. Some formats also let clients choose shorter or phone-based sessions when that better fits a break at work or caregiving duties. Ask directly about which session types are currently offered and how they can best fit into everyday routines.
