About Christie

Christie Gait is a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) in North Carolina with 11 years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, and the challenges of life changes. Christie also focuses on issues like abandonment, attachment difficulties, blended family tensions, and questions about life purpose.

Christie respects that clients know their own stories. She helps people identify strengths they already have and use those strengths to tackle what feels hard. Sessions are practical and conversational. People can expect straightforward dialogue rather than jargon.

She supports work on communication problems, commitment worries, control issues, and the emotional fallout from divorce or separation. Christie also addresses feelings of emptiness, isolation, guilt, and jealousy. The goal in sessions is to look at patterns and try small, manageable shifts.

Her approach is collaborative. She listens for the ways past relationships and family of origin themes shape present choices. From there she helps people practice clearer boundaries and healthier interaction habits. Christie pays attention to how attachment and abandonment concerns repeat over time.

Christie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure sessions and track progress. She asks questions that clarify practical next steps. For someone unsure what comes next in work or life, Christie helps talk through options and test new ways of responding.

How evidence-based techniques are used online

Christie draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to structure online sessions in a clear, practical way. She focuses on approaches that help people examine patterns in relationships and daily life, learn specific communication skills, and practice new responses to anxiety or past hurt. These methods are applied in short, focused conversations and homework tasks that fit into everyday routines.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christie collaborates with each person to identify which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferences. She pays attention to what feels achievable and adjusts methods as progress and feedback indicate whether a different strategy would be better.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking, as the biography does not list specific online delivery options. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work and family obligations, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. It can also make it simpler to continue steady work through life changes without rearranging an entire day.
