About Christie
She has worked extensively with individuals facing trauma, addiction, relationship difficulties, depression, stress, and anxiety, and she was part of the inaugural team that facilitated the Matrix Program, an internationally known intensive outpatient program for substance dependence that had not previously been available in her state. That experience informs her practical and informed approach to addiction and recovery.
Christie draws on a range of evidence-based, trauma-informed strategies to help clients build clarity, competence, courage, and connection. Her work focuses on helping people find balance, meaning, and a renewed sense of agency as they move through complex life challenges. She places a high value on respect, sensitivity, and compassion, tailoring conversations and treatment plans to each person’s specific needs and goals.
Online therapeutic approaches for connection and change
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps clients clarify what matters most to them and build psychological flexibility. In practice this means noticing thoughts and feelings without getting overwhelmed by them, then taking steps toward meaningful goals - an approach that can help with stress, anxiety, and patterns that keep people stuck.
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current ways of relating. It supports clients to explore patterns of connection, repair ruptures in relationships, and develop more secure ways of giving and receiving support - a helpful fit for relationship concerns, abandonment, and attachment issues.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to identify and shift unhelpful thinking and behavior. CBT techniques are often used for depression, anxiety, and many stress-related difficulties to build clearer thinking and more effective coping skills.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. The therapist works collaboratively with clients and licensed professionals as needed to determine which methods best match each person’s needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress unfolds.
Online therapy through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging offers flexibility for people juggling work, family, or geographic constraints. These options make it easier for clients to attend sessions consistently, access support from home or while traveling, and choose the format that feels most comfortable for them.
