About Christie

Dr. Christie Taylor, Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas, has 30 years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family concerns, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy issues, parenting, anger, self-esteem, career challenges, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and coping with life changes. She describes her work as helping people clarify thoughts and feelings that brought them to counseling and then focus on hopes and goals for life.

Dr. Taylor prefers practical, straightforward work. She helps clients put parts of the past in the past when those memories are blocking progress. She supports recovery from substance use and works with people aiming for abstinence and a different pattern of thinking and feeling.

Her background includes leading mental health and addiction treatment programs in both private and public settings. She has served as a clinical director for psychiatric hospitals across levels of care and as a CEO of nonprofit addiction programs. She also helped develop an addiction and chronic pain program for a Houston medical center.

Dr. Taylor has longstanding teaching experience. She has been an adjunct faculty member for about 20 years at the University of St. Thomas in Houston, Cameron University in Oklahoma, and the University of Houston in an addiction counseling training program. This work informs her clinical perspective and keeps her connected to training and practice developments.

She has many years of experience counseling children and a particular interest in supporting teens whose parents have alcoholism or addiction. Her approach emphasizes clear goals, direct discussion of problems, and practical steps toward change.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions can help

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships affect current patterns. It focuses on connection, trust, and how those patterns show up in close relationships. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, centers on how thoughts and behaviors interact. It uses practical exercises to change unhelpful thinking and reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as progress is made and needs change.

Confirm which session formats are offered before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online options can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten commutes, or allow for quieter surroundings when longer travel is impractical. Some formats can be a shorter check-in or a session without video to reduce bandwidth. Discuss practical needs when scheduling so sessions work with everyday life.
