About Christie
Christie Jacobus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 17 years of experience. She works with adults facing relationship and family concerns, anger, stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, and life changes. Christie also addresses issues like parenting, intimacy-related problems, self-esteem, career concerns, mood disorders, attention difficulties, and eating or sleeping struggles.
Her style is straightforward and person-focused. She listens for what matters to each client and helps people talk through communication problems and relationship tensions. Sessions aim to identify practical steps clients can try between meetings, rather than only talking about feelings.
Christie uses approaches such as Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns and try different responses. She also draws on the Gottman Method for relationship work and Solution-Focused Therapy when short-term goals are needed. These methods are chosen to match the issue at hand and the client’s preferences.
Her background includes long experience in helping caregivers, people dealing with blended family questions, and those managing chronic illness or pain. She also supports people facing fertility or midlife concerns, commitment or communication problems, and the fallout of infidelity or separation.
In sessions Christie helps clients build clearer communication, manage anger and resentment, and plan practical changes for everyday life. She combines conversational work with exercises that can be practiced outside sessions to track progress and adjust strategies as needed.
Approaches used and what online sessions involve
Christie works from Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in ways that are easy to understand. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening closely and following what the client says matters most. It helps people clarify their priorities and feel heard. CBT looks at thoughts and behaviors and helps clients test small changes to reduce stress, manage anger, and change repetitive patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christie treats the choice as collaborative and will help you decide which methods make sense based on your goals and preferences. That means trying approaches, reviewing what helps, and adjusting plans together.
