I've been working with Christie for a couple of months now and I cannot say enough good things about her. She always makes me feel like my concerns are valid and always offers great tools to help me. I'd absolutely recommend Christie to anyone looking to start therapy, especially if they're new to it. She makes me feel so comfortable.

Therapy sessions with Christie have literally changed my life. She is a great therapist and I always feel heard. She always points me in the right direction with all my problems and I have seen a tremendous change since starting therapy 6 months ago. I would highly recommend her to anyone.

More about Christie

  • 3 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker licensed in Connecticut with many years of experience working with both individuals and families while also providing case management. I have worked with clients with a ride range of concerns including anxiety, depression, relationship conflicts, difficulty with life transitions, cancer, grief, and end of life.

I have a specialty in grief, loss and oncology. I have extensive experience in helping both the patient and the family in these very difficult situations. It may help you to know that I lost my mom to cancer at 19 which is what brought me to this unique specialty. I have worked in an outpatient oncology center for 3 years and have been working with both adults and children who are coping with grief for the past 7 years.

I also specialize in relationship related this issues. This includes but is not limited to, navigating complex relationships, break ups and assistance communicating,

My counseling style is client- centered and I believe that the most important part of therapy is the alliance created between the client and the therapist. I am passionate about empowering others through life's challenges and am hopeful that through communication and commitment on both ends, I can help you get to a place you are feeling much better about these difficulties you are dealing with right now.

Taking the steps to begin therapy is not always easy, but it can be so helpful in getting to a place where you are able to live a more fulfilling life. It may help to know that I have years of experience being the client in a counseling relationship and I have been very picky about what I looked for in my therapist. I have learned first hand how important it is to have a therapist that I feel comfortable saying anything to and feeling validated no matter how I am feeling. If this is the kind of client/therapist relationship you are looking for, you have come to the right place!

I look forward to working with you.

About online counseling

Affordable.

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.

This is my first time ever trying out therapy and Christie is amazing. She's so understanding and easy to talk to and it seriously feels like talking to a friend who just gets everything I'm going through. She has helped ease my anxiety and begin to work through grief/family concerns/etc. I look forward to our sessions every week and could not recommend her enough!

Christie has been great to talk with about everything happening in my life, and what’s to come. She allows me to have that space where I can vent and let go of the fear of having my feelings judged.

Reviewed August 2020

Christie is amazing and honestly I had no idea what I was getting myself into when I decided to get professional help but she walked me through it and didn’t make me feel like a patient. She talks to me like a friend and that’s what I need right now. I feel heard and validated. She’s good at what she does.
