She also supports those facing trauma and abuse, parenting strains, grief and identity questions related to LGBT experience. Christie approaches people with sensitivity and respect, offering steady support as they take steps toward change.
Christie uses a person-centred way of working that places the client’s priorities at the heart of each session.
Background and approach
She draws on mindfulness to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without being overwhelmed by them. Solution-focused ideas are used to build small, practical steps that fit into everyday life. Christie has five years of professional experience and holds BACP registration.
She describes her role as tailoring sessions and a treatment plan to each person’s specific needs and goals. Sessions are shaped around what the client wants to work on rather than following a single fixed programme. In practice she aims to make sessions straightforward and practical.
Christie may combine talking, breathing and body-awareness work when it helps the client. She also pays attention to patterns in relationships and to issues like self-esteem, addictions, sleep and eating concerns. People often contact Christie when they need help coping with life changes, calming anxious thoughts, or finding clearer steps forward after trauma or loss.

How Christie’s approaches work in online therapy
Christie draws on client-centred work, mindfulness and solution-focused techniques to meet practical needs. Client-centred Therapy focuses on understanding each person’s experience and following their lead, which helps when someone wants a supportive space to talk through their situation. Mindfulness Therapy teaches paying gentle attention to thoughts and body sensations so feelings feel less overwhelming and everyday stress can be managed more easily. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on small, achievable steps and builds on what is already working to create clearer progress.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Christie works collaboratively with clients to agree what feels most helpful, adjusting methods over time based on goals and what is proving useful in sessions. This means therapy is shaped around the person's needs rather than a fixed model.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into busy lives and reducing travel time so therapy can happen between commitments. Online sessions can make it easier to keep regular appointments and to try short check-ins when needed. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to ensure they match your routine and needs.
