Christie uses a client-centered style that focuses on building a trusting relationship. She works with each person to set realistic goals that reflect their values. Sessions aim to be straightforward and collaborative rather than academic or prescriptive.
In sessions she draws on approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, cognitive behavioral ideas, attachment-focused work, and existential perspectives. Those methods are used to help people notice unhelpful patterns, shift toward meaningful action, and improve everyday functioning.
Christie brings eight years of clinical experience in Florida and pays attention to self-care and balance. She keeps up with trainings and conferences to refine her skills and stay aware of new ideas in the field.
People who choose her often want a therapist who listens closely, helps break problems into manageable steps, and encourages practical changes that fit day-to-day life. Prospective clients are invited to consider whether this direct, relational style feels like a good match for their needs.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then commit to actions that match personal values. It can be useful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behavior that maintain distress and replacing them with practical skills to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current connections and coping, and it can help people struggling with trust, abandonment concerns, or relationship pain.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christie will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can change over time as goals evolve and new issues come up.
The practical benefits of online therapy can include easier scheduling, fewer travel demands, and the ability to fit brief check-ins into a busy day.
