More about Christy
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I'm a therapist dedicated to supporting individuals through life's most challenging moments. With several years of clinical experience, I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, and a range of other concerns including attention and mood-related challenges, as well as substance use issues.
My approach is grounded in genuine connection and respect for who you are. I believe in meeting clients where they are—honoring your values, beliefs, and background—while creating a safe, nonjudgmental space for growth. Whether you're exploring questions of faith and purpose, working through communication difficulties, or addressing feelings of isolation, guilt, or shame, I'm here to support your journey toward self-compassion and meaningful change.
I draw on evidence-based therapeutic practices to help you build insight, strengthen your relationships, and reconnect with what matters most to you. My goal is to walk alongside you with authenticity, warmth, and genuine care as you move toward healing and wholeness.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
