Christi is a Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) and received her Master's Degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Northwestern University. Christi utilizes a number of therapeutic approaches to help clients achieve their mental health goals. She completed training in Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART) which provides relief from the strong physical and emotional reactions associated with post-traumatic stress (PTSD), trauma, anxiety, and depression. Christi also has training in Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy (EFIT). EFIT helps individuals explore their emotional and relational patterns with the goal of uncovering underlying needs, fears and dreams. This integration equips them to create meaningful, nurturing connections with themselves and others.

Christi works with clients to address a variety of concerns including:

• Healing from trauma-including childhood, racial, religious and relationship

• Depression and Anxiety

• Grief and Loss

• Career and Life Transition

Our emotional responses to people and situations do not go away simply because we do not give attention to them. Unresolved feelings will bubble up and can damage our relationships and our physical health-and are linked to depression and anxiety. Christi is committed to helping individuals heal painful emotional experiences so they can improve their overall sense of well-being and quality of life.
