About Christie
Christie Phillips is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage relationship struggles, trauma, mood challenges, and life transitions. Her style aims to make difficult topics easier to talk about so parents and caregivers can take the next step.
Christie uses clear, practical steps when working with clients. She listens first to understand what matters most, then offers tools and strategies tailored to the situation. Sessions often include guidance for handling stress, anxiety, parenting pressures, grief, or changes related to adoption and foster care.
Her background spans clinical and professional settings. Christie has worked in behavioral, medical, academic, legal, and community environments. That range has shaped how she adapts tools for different needs and age groups, from young children through older adults.
Christie has experience supporting people after trauma, with extreme behavior or emotional challenges, and with relationship or couple concerns. She also has experience with autism spectrum behaviors and related supports. Those areas grew from referrals and sponsored training rather than being the only focus of her work.
Her goal is to connect with each person, understand their challenges, and use approaches that help them move toward their goals. She values diversity and brings a practical, respectful manner to sessions. If you want straightforward help for parenting, relationships, or adapting to big life changes, she may be a good match.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Christie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and symptom relief. One common approach she uses emphasizes building coping skills for anxiety, stress, and mood problems through step-by-step strategies people can practice between sessions. This helps with sleep, eating concerns, and everyday worry.She also applies trauma-informed methods that prioritize safety and pacing when addressing past hurt or abuse. Those methods tend to focus on stabilizing emotions, improving daily functioning, and reducing triggers so clients can move toward healing at their own pace.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christie will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then adapt techniques to fit the client's needs. The process is collaborative and revisited as progress is made.
