About Christie
Dr. Christie Taylor is an LPC with thirty years of work in mental health and addiction services. She helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship struggles, addiction, parenting strains, or major life changes.
Her approach centers on listening, clarifying what matters to the client, and using that clarity to set practical next steps. Christie focuses on supporting people who want to move past patterns that no longer serve them.
Background and approach
She encourages clients to name hopes and goals, and then to try small, manageable changes that build momentum. Her style is direct and compassionate, with attention to real-life concerns like work, parenting, and caregiving. Her background includes leadership roles in psychiatric hospitals and nonprofit addiction treatment, plus decades of teaching in university counseling and addiction programs.
That mix of clinical work and administration shapes a pragmatic view of treatment - what will help in daily life matters most. Christie draws on several therapy methods to fit each person’s needs, including existential ideas about meaning, attachment-focused work on relationships, client-centered listening, and cognitive-behavioral tools for changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
She also uses couple-focused techniques informed by the Gottman method when relationship skills are a focus. People seeking help for substance use, chronic pain, caregiver stress, codependency, or parenting challenges will find her experienced with these concerns. She welcomes clients who want steady, experienced support as they make practical changes to their routines and relationships.

Online support
How approach and online care come together
Dr. Taylor uses several therapy approaches that translate well to online work. Existential Therapy helps people examine meaning and life choices; it supports those coping with emptiness, grief, major transitions, or questions about purpose. Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on relationship patterns and emotional bonds, which can help with intimacy issues, communication problems, and family of origin wounds. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress management.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. She will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods as progress unfolds. Clients and therapist decide together whether to use existential reflection, attachment work, CBT skills, or a mix of methods.
Online formats offer real flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text-based messaging is useful for brief updates, ongoing coaching, or when typing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work, caregiving responsibilities, or travel while keeping the focus on practical change.
