Christie Jacobus

Christie Jacobus is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Texas who helps people facing relationship strain, parenting stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She focuses on practical steps people can take to feel steadier. Christie writes plainly and listens closely so concerns are addressed without jargon.

Christie draws on 17 years as an LPC and a long background in nursing to understand how stress affects daily life. She offers a calm, compassionate space for people to talk through communication problems, family of origin issues, caregiving strain, and intimacy-related concerns. She pays attention to how health, sleep, and chronic conditions shape emotions.

Her style centers on the person in front of her. Christie uses Client-Centered Therapy to follow each person's priorities, and she brings in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy when patterns of thinking and behavior are getting in the way. For relationship concerns she uses elements of the Gottman Method and solution-focused ideas to map small, concrete changes people can try between sessions.

Christie works with common struggles like grief, trauma and abuse, bipolar disorder, ADHD, body image, and career stress. She also supports people facing midlife questions, blended family dynamics, infertility stress, and first responder-related pressures. Her approach aims to be practical and hopeful rather than abstract.

Christie welcomes conversations about goals and fits methods to each person. People in Texas who want to explore next steps start by sharing what matters most to them and scheduling a first meeting to see how the work feels.

How Christie’s Approaches Fit Online Therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person’s own goals and pace. It involves listening, reflecting, and shaping sessions around what the client says matters most, which helps with relationship and life-change work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, and uses simple experiments and skills to change patterns that feed anxiety, anger, or depression. The Gottman Method offers practical tools for couples communication and problem-solving and can be used to rebuild trust and reduce conflict.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christie works collaboratively to decide which methods to use based on the client’s needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts plans as work proceeds so people feel the approach fits their life and values.

Please confirm current session options before booking so you know how sessions are delivered. Many people find online work helps fit therapy into a busy schedule, makes shorter check-ins possible during a workday, and lets them try strategies between meetings without long travel. Licensed professionals can guide clients through practical skills and communication tools over remote sessions while focusing on measurable steps that carry into everyday life.
