I started therapy with the belief that I was pretty self-aware. However, even after just a few sessions Dr. Taylor has helped me identify things that I KNOW about me, but have never SEEN in myself. She gently guides me through processing my emotions and toward finding effective solutions to the issues I discuss with her. So grateful she is now a part of my life.

As a counselor my goal is to earn your trust and then help you clarify your thoughts and feelings that led for you into counseling. My focus will be on your hopes and dreams for your life. If your past is casting shadows on your present, then you and I can focus on ways you would like to put some of the past to rest in the past. I have a passion for the change process in individual and group psychotherapy. Recovery in emotional struggles and and abstinance from mood alterning chemicals I believe they are remarkable ways to realign our thought-life; and thereby, change our feelings. I am eager to meet you and begin walking your journey with you.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Christie is a wonderful therapist. She is a great listener & the best supporter. A majority of my obstacles/troubles were sorted out after getting into therapy with her. Most definitely would recommend her.
Christie was great. She understood immediately the issue I was dealing with and offered advice without being prescriptive. She was a great listener and I was able to articulate things for myself during the one-on-one sessions with her. Thanks Christie!
Christie is amazing, she has the most patience in the world and I felt like I could share everything that's in my mind to her. While I do talk a bit too much, she was able to point out a few things that I have to relook into myself again. I think that after a few sessions I'm feeling extremely happy, and everything that was held up within me was released. Thank you Christie for being patient with me.
