Christie Phillips

Christie Phillips is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience. She works with people across many stages of life to help them cope with change, manage stress, and move toward clearer goals. Christie aims to build a trusting connection so each person feels heard and understood.

She draws on experience from clinical, business, academic, medical, legal, and community settings. That background informs a practical style focused on problem solving and life skills as well as emotional healing. Christie has worked with individuals across a wide age range and appreciates the differences each person brings.

Christie has developed special experience in trauma, significant behavior and emotional concerns, relationship improvement, and autism spectrum behavior. Those areas grew from referral work and sponsored training, and she treats them alongside many other concerns. She also helps with career questions, parenting strains, grief, addictions, and identity issues related to gender and sexual orientation.

In sessions she listens for what matters most and then uses approaches and tools that match the client's goals. The aim is practical progress - clearer choices, better coping, and healthier relationships. Christie encourages a collaborative process where goals are set together and adjusted as needed.

People who choose her often want a straightforward, experienced counselor who values diversity and respects individual differences. She welcomes conversation about what a good fit would look like and invites prospective clients to begin by sharing their main concerns.

Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life

Christie often uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional healing. One approach emphasizes trauma-focused work that helps people process difficult events, reduce strong reactions, and regain more control over daily life. Another common thread involves relationship-focused strategies that help people improve communication, rebuild trust, and handle conflict with clearer steps.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christie starts by listening to your concerns and goals, then suggests techniques that match what you want to accomplish. She adjusts the plan together with you as progress happens or priorities shift.

For online therapy, confirm the current session options before booking as formats are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins around work or caregiving. They also let people meet with a licensed professional from another location when that is helpful. Christie will discuss which session setup works best for your needs and daily routine.
