Background and approach

She blends talk therapy with concrete tools so people can practice between sessions. Her approach draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioral strategies to change how someone relates to thoughts and feelings. Attachment-based ideas also inform her work, especially when relationship patterns and early wounds show up in adult life.

Christie adapts methods to match each person's goals rather than following one fixed plan. She has eight years of clinical experience as an LMHC in Florida. That background includes supporting people facing chronic illness, caregiving strain, and life transitions such as divorce or blended family shifts.

Christie prioritizes clear communication and steady pacing to help people feel understood. Clients can expect a practical, down-to-earth style and step-by-step suggestions they can try between sessions. Christie helps people practice new habits, test different thinking patterns, and build routines that support daily functioning and emotional regulation.

How therapy approaches translate to online care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. Online sessions can introduce small experiments and daily practices to reduce avoidance and increase meaningful activity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns with clear, teachable skills like thought records, behavioral activation, and exposure steps. CBT tools can be shared during a session and practiced between meetings to track progress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christie will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has helped in the past. She uses that information to try a method, adjust as needed, and keep the person involved in deciding what feels most useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for longer sessions and visual cues, phone can fit a shorter check-in or lower bandwidth situations, and messaging or live chat can support brief updates, skill coaching, or when schedules are tight. These options make it easier to continue consistent care, practice new skills, and keep therapy working around daily life.
