She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions, LGBT concerns, relationship and intimacy-related issues, parenting, anger, career, depression, coaching, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.
Christy uses Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, and Jungian Therapy. She describes her work as practical and interactive. Sessions include talking through problems, learning coping skills, and trying exercises that connect to clients' interests.

Those tools are used alongside standard therapeutic techniques like thought work and emotion regulation skills.
Her practice addresses complex or layered concerns such as attachment and abandonment issues, family of origin problems, codependency, dissociation, substance use, and first responder stress. She also lists focus areas that include autism and Asperger Syndrome, BDSM and kink dynamics, and communication problems.
Christy describes sessions as a collaborative effort. She works with people to set goals, practice new skills, and check progress over time. To begin, readers should confirm current session options and schedule an initial meeting through the site's scheduling flow.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and following the client's concerns. Online sessions focused on this approach typically concentrate on understanding current struggles and supporting the client's own problem solving. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets thoughts and behaviors with structured exercises. Online CBT sessions often involve setting goals, practicing specific skills, and reviewing progress between meetings. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) teaches emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills. It is useful for managing intense emotions and improving interpersonal effectiveness.Choosing an approach is collaborative. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful. They adapt methods as needed and check in about what is and isn't working over time.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm the current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a workday, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. The therapist will aim to match the format and approach to practical needs and therapeutic goals during the first meetings.
