More about Christy

  • 12 years' experience
  • Female
  • LPC

I am licensed in Georgia with many years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe in helping each person achieve their own goals and walking with them rather than directing them. I am direct with each person I work with but will always treat my clients with respect and unconditional acceptance. I sometime bring my geeky nature into therapy. Do we need to explore your identity I developed a Star Trek based intervention to help with that. Do you want to explore your view of yourself or your partner we can use aspects dungeons and dragons to explore that. Have you been feeling disempowered , lets channel your inner super hero! I try to make your therapy experience as specific to your needs and goals. Thank you for trusting me to take this journey with you.

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.
