Background and approach
Conversations are direct and respectful, aimed at reducing symptoms and improving day-to-day functioning. Christy has worked with people across the lifespan, including adolescent, adult, and geriatric populations. That breadth of experience informs how she tailors care for each person who reaches out.
She is familiar with issues linked to adoption and foster care, aging concerns, blended family dynamics, and caregiving stress. Other areas she addresses include domestic violence, substance-related problems, divorce and separation, cancer-related issues, and hospice or end-of-life counseling. She also helps people dealing with isolation, emptiness, guilt, and family conflict.
The practice accepts sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Christy aims to create a supportive, nonjudgmental setting where clients can talk through experiences and develop concrete plans. She explains options plainly and works collaboratively to set goals that fit each person's life and needs.
Evidence-based methods delivered online
Christy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and recovery. One common strategy emphasizes teaching coping skills and stress management techniques to reduce anxiety and improve day-to-day functioning. These are concrete tools people can try between sessions to handle worry and tension.She also works with trauma-informed approaches that help people process difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable. That work often combines grounding strategies, pacing, and planning to reduce overwhelming reactions and support safer day-to-day routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and adapt methods based on each person's concerns, goals, and preferences. Clients and the therapist make decisions collaboratively and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls allow fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be simpler when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work for quick check-ins or when typing feels easier than speaking. These formats aim to make therapy easier to fit around work, caregiving, or travel.
