About Christy

Christy Potter is a licensed therapist based in California with seven years of clinical experience supporting people through stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, anger, and challenges to self-esteem. As an LPCC - a Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor - she combines practical strategies with empathetic listening to help clients navigate life transitions and regain a clearer sense of direction. She also works with concerns such as panic attacks, post-traumatic stress, social anxiety, isolation, guilt and shame, impulsivity, control issues, and questions about life purpose.

Christy approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion, adapting conversations and treatment plans to match individual needs and goals. She draws on evidence-informed methods to address mood disorders and coping skills while creating space for clients to discover self-love and build healthier relationships. Taking the first step toward a more fulfilling life often requires courage, and Christy offers steady support and collaboration throughout that process. Her practice centers on helping people develop practical tools and clearer priorities so they can move forward with greater confidence and resilience.

Approaches That Guide Online Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, then identify personal values to guide meaningful action - it can be useful for anxiety, mood concerns, and coping with life changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and learning practical skills to change them, often helping with depression, panic, and social anxiety. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and a nonjudgmental relationship, creating a space where clients can explore self-esteem, identity, and feelings related to trauma or loss.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey, and Christy works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adapts tools and pacing so therapy feels relevant and manageable for the individual.

Online sessions through video calls, phone appointments, live chat, or text-based messaging make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life or challenging circumstances. These formats allow licensed professionals to offer continuity of care, flexible scheduling, and more consistent support for people who are balancing work, family, or geographic constraints.
