About Christie
Dr. Christie Taylor helps people facing stress, anxiety, addiction, depression, ADHD, and relationship or parenting strains. She focuses on what you want your life to look like and on practical steps to get there.
Her approach is calm and straightforward, with attention to both feelings and day-to-day challenges. She listens first to understand how your history affects today. If the past still feels present, she works with you to set it aside where possible and build new patterns that support current goals.
Background and approach
Sessions can include talking through difficult memories and finding ways to change unhelpful thought patterns. Dr. Taylor has a long history leading mental health and addiction programs.
She has directed psychiatric services across inpatient and outpatient settings and has been a CEO of nonprofit addiction treatment programs. That background informs a clear-eyed approach to recovery and to problems that involve mood changes and substance use. For many years she has also taught counseling and addiction topics at local universities, sharing practical skills with future clinicians.
Her training and leadership work give her experience with a wide range of concerns, from chronic pain and caregiver stress to grief and career questions. In sessions she combines respectful listening with methods that help change thinking and behavior. The work is collaborative and aimed at small, realistic steps.
She invites people who want steady, experienced guidance through emotional and life challenges.
How therapy approaches translate to online care
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns. Online sessions using this approach look at how you relate to others and offer ways to build more stable connections and trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, concentrates on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is practical and goal-oriented, suited to anxiety, depression, ADHD-related routines, and coping skills.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist works collaboratively to match methods to your needs, goals, and preferences. You and the therapist will try things, check what helps, and adjust the plan together.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video is useful for full conversations and visual cues, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and short check-ins work well over text or live chat. These options make scheduling more flexible and allow therapy to fit around work, parenting, or health needs.
