About Christie
Christie Phillips is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 13 years of experience. She helps people who are dealing with relationship struggles, trauma, anxiety, depression, and life changes. Christie aims to build a calm working connection so people feel understood and able to move forward.
Christie draws on a broad background that includes work in behavioral, business, medical, academic, legal, and community settings. That variety taught her to adapt her approach to each person's situation and stage of life.
Background and approach
She has assisted people across a wide age range and values diverse perspectives. She has developed focused experience in trauma, extreme emotional behavior, relationship improvement, and autism spectrum behaviors. Those areas grew from referrals and sponsored training, and they sit alongside many other concerns she addresses, such as grief, parenting, addiction, and career stress.
In sessions Christie listens for goals and practical next steps. She uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques and straightforward tools to help clients learn new coping skills, manage mood and stress, and improve communication. The work is collaborative and paced to what a person can handle.
Christie practices in Georgia as an LPC and offers services that fit different schedules and needs. Her approach is warm and grounded, with an emphasis on solving problems in ways that make sense for daily life. If someone wants steady guidance through a difficult time, she focuses on clear strategies and steady support.
How evidence-based approaches translate to online care
Christie often uses straightforward, evidence-based techniques that focus on symptom relief and skill building. One common approach emphasizes practical coping skills for anxiety, stress, and mood management - teaching breathing, grounding, and thought-challenging tactics that people can use between sessions. Another frequently used method concentrates on relationship skills and communication, helping individuals practice clearer requests, active listening, and boundary-setting to improve connection with others.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christie works with each person to understand goals, preferences, and what feels doable. Together they test methods and adjust the plan so therapy fits the client’s needs and life rhythm rather than forcing a single model.
Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions are good for deeper conversations and nonverbal cues, phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a camera isn’t needed, live chat is useful for short check-ins, and text messaging supports brief coaching and reminders. These options let people fit sessions around work, family, and other responsibilities while keeping a steady line of support.
