More about Christie

  • 13 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

Welcome! My name is Christie Jacobus and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Board approved Supervisor (LPC-S) in the state of Texas. I have been a therapist for over 12 years serving a variety of clients in both public agencies and private practice. I have experience with individuals, families, and groups experiencing challenges related to relationship and family concerns, parenting issues, and career conflicts. Additionally, I have over 30 years of experience as a Registered Nurse and I understand the correlation between physical and emotional health, and I have worked with many clients to improve their health and wellness. I also have experience working with domestic violence, physical and emotional trauma.

I love working with people and my approach to counseling is to work together to help clients grow and become the best version of themselves. I use a variety of skills and interventions based on cognitive behavioral, client centered and solution -based therapies. Since each client is unique, we will collaborate to meet the needs and goals of the person. I think every individual is entitled to compassion, dignity and respect. Open and honest communication in a warm non threatening environment is key to our success.

It can be difficult to ask for help and finding the right fit for a counselor is very important. I wish you success on having a more healthy and vibrant life and if I can be of assistance, I welcome the opportunity to share the journey.

Thank you

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

Christie is amazing! I've been working with her for over 2 years now, and am WAY better off for it! So grateful for her support, guidance, and listening ear. I couldn't have hit my goals and worked through issues so quickly without her. Thank you Christie!!! :)

Christi clearly cares about her patients and is quick to pick up on patterns in someone’s life or to identify if there are missing pieces to a story and yet balances that without placing pressure to share more until her client is ready.

I have just begun my counseling journey with Christie and I wish we had met sooner!!! Christie is very kind, warm and understanding. I am in the counseling field myself and I appreciate how she views me as any other client and is sensitive to my needs. She is readily available and always eager to listen. Highly Recommend! :D

Christie has been a big help to me. Not only is she a good listener and guidance counselor, but she asks me what I need from her. This is something I’ve never been asked before from a therapist. I plan to continue working with her and highly recommend her!

Christie is very relatable and i feel comfortable with her. Ive had other counselors who i felt were just giving me text book answers and not really care about what i was discussing. Christie is good at listening and trying to help find the best solution for my problems. She responds quickly.

Christie has been a great counselor for me. She responds to me quickly when I want to get my thoughts out by messaging her, but she’s also available by phone. I feel like I can trust her and unravel what’s going on in my head in a way that I can’t with friends or family.
