About Christie
Christie Jacobus is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Texas who helps people facing anxiety, relationship strain, grief, and life transitions. She draws on 17 years of counseling experience to give straightforward support and practical tools. Her style is warm and focused on what will help most right now.
Christie listens closely to what matters to each person. She works with clients to set clear goals and tries simple, proven steps to reduce stress and improve communication.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to leave people with one or two things they can use between meetings. Her background includes long experience addressing caregiver stress, family conflict, and body image concerns. She also supports people dealing with trauma, depression, bipolar challenges, ADHD, and problems with sleep or eating.
The emphasis is on making progress in everyday life, not on labels. Christie blends client-centered conversation with practical techniques from cognitive behavioral work and solution-focused methods. She also uses ideas from the Gottman Method when relationship communication is a concern.
The result is a mix of listening, gentle challenge, and hands-on strategies. People who come to Christie often want help improving communication, coping with change, or managing anxiety and stress. She encourages steady steps, checks progress, and adjusts the plan as needs change.
Her aim is to help clients regain balance and feel more able to handle what comes next.
How her approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and understanding each person's perspective. It helps people feel heard and builds the foundation for change by following the client's pace and priorities.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and actions connect. It teaches concrete strategies to shift unhelpful thinking and reduce anxiety, stress, or low mood in daily life.
The therapist will work with each person to choose the best approach. That choice comes from discussing needs, goals, and what feels most useful. This is a collaborative process and methods can be adjusted as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits short check-ins, and messaging is handy for ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while balancing work, caregiving, or busy days.
