Christie Phillips, LPC

Christie Phillips is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with 13 years of experience working across therapeutic and human-development environments. She has supported individuals, families, and couples in settings that include personal, business, legal, medical, academic, and community contexts, applying practical tools and clinical insight to help clients move forward.

Christie has worked with people from early childhood through their nineties, bringing respect for each person’s unique background and a clear appreciation for diversity. Her work emphasizes building a strong therapeutic connection, understanding each client’s specific needs, and selecting evidence-based techniques and tailored interventions to help clients adjust, cope, and improve their daily lives.

While Christie draws on broad experience across many concerns, she has developed particular expertise in trauma, extreme behavior and emotional challenges, couples and relationship improvement, and autism spectrum behaviors. These specialties grew from referrals and sponsored training, and they complement a wide-ranging practice rather than limiting it. Christie aims to create a comfortable, collaborative space where clients can explore goals and discover practical steps toward the outcomes they seek.

Evidence-Based Approaches and Online Therapy Options

Christie Phillips uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address core concerns and help clients build skills for everyday life. She commonly applies trauma-focused strategies that help individuals process difficult experiences and develop practical coping skills to manage emotional responses and daily functioning. She also works with relationship-focused methods that support communication, conflict resolution, and rebuilding connection between partners, which can benefit couples facing intimacy and relational challenges. Additionally, Christie adapts behavioral strategies to support people on the autism spectrum, emphasizing structured approaches and skill-building that can improve routine, social interactions, and emotional regulation.

Choosing the right therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process. Christie partners with clients to understand their goals, preferences, and life circumstances and then tailors techniques that fit those needs. This collaborative planning helps ensure therapy feels relevant and useful from the start.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, maintain continuity of care during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from different locations, all while allowing clients and therapists to focus on meaningful progress together.
