About Christy
Christy works with people who have lived through trauma, abuse, or neglect and with those coping with family conflict or loss. She has experience with adolescent, adult, and geriatric populations and with issues that come from adoption, foster care, aging, blended families, and hospice or end-of-life needs. Intellectual disability is included among her focus areas.
Her sessions usually center on real-life coping strategies and pacing change in ways that feel manageable. She helps clients identify strengths, build routines, and try practical tools for feeling better. Conversations are direct, compassionate, and focused on what the person needs right now.
Christy emphasizes a tailored approach rather than a single method. She looks at someone’s whole situation and adjusts support as needs shift. Her goal is to help people regain confidence and function after hard experiences.

Step 3
How evidence-based approaches translate to online support
Christy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to guide sessions in clear, practical ways. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life experiments; this helps reduce anxiety and improve mood by changing day-to-day thinking patterns. Another approach emphasizes building step-by-step coping skills and routines to manage stress, trauma symptoms, or grief; this gives clients concrete tools they can use between meetings.Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, daily challenges, and preferences and then try methods that fit those needs. Adjustments are made as progress or new concerns appear, so the work stays relevant and useful.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking since formats are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow short check-ins when schedules are tight. It can also let people use quieter surroundings or avoid being on camera when that helps them engage more comfortably. Licensed professionals can adapt these methods to remote work while focusing on practical, everyday improvements.
