About Christie
Christie Phillips, LPC, helps people navigate relationship struggles, trauma, anxiety, and codependency concerns. She brings 13 years of counseling experience and practical work in human development to her sessions. Christie emphasizes connecting with each person and building a working relationship that feels comfortable and clear.
She uses everyday language and concrete tools to help clients cope and move forward. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening now, identifying patterns, and practicing new ways of handling stress, emotions, and difficult interactions. Christie aims to help people adjust to life changes and improve how they manage anger, grief, sleep, and addictive behaviors.
Her background includes work in clinical, business, legal, medical, academic, and community settings. That variety shaped an approach that adapts to different needs and ages. She has worked with people from childhood into late life and values diversity in identity and experience.
Christie has done focused work with trauma, extreme emotional or behavioral challenges, relationship improvement, and autism spectrum behaviors. These have come from referrals and sponsored training and are areas she often supports, though she helps with many other concerns as well.
Christie’s goal is practical progress. She listens first, then collaborates on a plan that fits individual goals. Her style is direct, compassionate, and aimed at helping people find clearer choices and better ways to cope.
Approaches that guide online work and practical change
Christie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on behavior and relationships. One approach emphasizes learning concrete coping skills to manage anxiety, anger, and stress. These skills include breathing and grounding practices, routines for better sleep, and step-by-step plans to change unhelpful habits. Another common focus is relationship-centered work that looks at patterns between people and teaches clearer communication and boundaries to reduce conflict and codependent dynamics.Finding the right approach is part of the journey. Christie will listen to a person’s goals and daily reality, then recommend methods that match those needs. She works together with clients to try techniques, track what helps, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into busy days. Online work can make follow-up, homework, and on-the-spot coaching simpler without travel time.
