About Christie
Christie Phillips is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 13 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are dealing with relationship struggles, trauma, stress, anxiety, sleep problems, and life transitions. Christie aims to build a working connection so people feel understood and ready to try new ways of coping.
She uses straightforward, practical methods and adapts tools to each person's needs. Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented, with room to talk through feelings, develop skills, and plan next steps. Christie emphasizes respect for a person's background and life story when choosing what to try together.
Christie has worked across many settings including medical, legal, academic, and community environments. That range means she is used to helping people navigate different systems and real-world challenges. She has significant experience with trauma, intense behavioral or emotional concerns, relationship difficulties, and autism spectrum behaviors, though she treats a wide range of issues beyond those areas.
Her practice also addresses parenting, grief, self-esteem, addictions, eating and intimacy-related concerns, career questions, ADHD, bipolar challenges, and aging-related topics. Christie aims to match the approach to what the person wants to change and how they prefer to work. She values diversity and responds to each person as an individual.
If someone is unsure where to start, Christie helps with clear next steps. The focus is on practical progress - small changes that add up to better sleep, less stress, healthier relationships, or clearer life direction.
Approaches that support better sleep and daily coping
Christie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage sleep problems, anxiety, and life stress. One common approach focuses on practical behavioral changes and daily routines that support sleep and reduce nighttime arousal; this involves identifying habits that interfere with rest and replacing them with steadier rhythms and coping steps. Another approach targets strong emotions and trauma responses by teaching grounding skills, emotion regulation, and pacing strategies to reduce overwhelm and improve calm before bedtime.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christie collaborates with each person to match techniques to their goals and preferences. She checks in on what is working and adjusts tools over time so therapy feels useful and realistic for day-to-day life.
For practical reasons, confirm current session options before booking so you know which online formats are offered. Online sessions can make scheduling easier, help fit therapy into a busy day, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. They can also let someone try skills in real-world settings between appointments, which often helps transfer improvements into daily routines.
