About Christie

Dr. Christie Taylor brings more than 30 years of clinical leadership and front-line counseling experience to her practice.

Background and approach

She focuses on concerns such as stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family challenges, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career concerns, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, coaching, compassion fatigue, and ADHD.

Her work also addresses aging and geriatric issues, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, chronic pain and illness, codependency, communication and control problems, divorce and separation, and substance use disorders. Dr.

Taylor practices with a restorative, person-centered orientation that emphasizes understanding attachment patterns and practical cognitive strategies. She draws on attachment-based and client-centered principles to build trust and clarify how past experiences shape current feelings, while using cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns.

Her background includes leadership of psychiatric and addiction treatment programs, clinical director roles across levels of care, nonprofit executive experience, and two decades of adjunct faculty teaching in mental health and addiction counseling programs. Dr.

Taylor is licensed in Texas as an LPC and welcomes conversations with prospective clients ready to explore change and recovery.

Online Approaches That Support Change

Attachment-based work focuses on how early relational patterns influence current emotional responses and close relationships; it helps people reshape trust, boundaries, and intimacy in present-day connections. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathic listening and collaboration, helping clients articulate goals and explore their values while the therapist offers gentle guidance and acceptance. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) targets the connections between thoughts, emotions, and behaviors by teaching practical skills to identify and reframe unhelpful thinking and to develop healthier coping strategies.

Choosing the right combination of approaches is part of the therapeutic process rather than a fixed decision at the outset. Dr. Taylor collaborates with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals, adapting methods over time so interventions align with what is most helpful for the individual’s situation and priorities.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, making it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules or to connect from different locations. These formats support continuity of care and let clients access licensed professionals from Texas and beyond while working on stress, addiction recovery, relationship concerns, ADHD-related challenges, and other issues in a convenient, adaptable way.
