Christy Stinton

Christy Stinton is a licensed counselor who helps people facing stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She speaks English and works from New Hampshire. Christy brings a straightforward and warm approach that aims to make it easier to talk about hard things.

Christy uses a mix of conversational and structured work in sessions. She draws on ideas from cognitive-behavioral approaches and person-centered methods to shape practical conversations. She also incorporates developmental perspectives to understand how life stages affect feelings and behavior.

Many people come for help with relationship strain, parenting worries, grief, and trauma or abuse. Christy also supports people dealing with addictions, bipolar mood concerns, ADHD, career transitions, and issues related to LGBT identity. Anger and coping skills are part of her regular focus.

She has 14 years of clinical experience and holds LPC and LCPC credentials. Christy aims to tailor talk and exercises to each person’s needs rather than offering one fixed plan. Sessions typically involve checking current stresses, setting small goals, and practicing skills to manage strong feelings.

Christy emphasizes collaboration and steady progress. She encourages those ready to try therapy to take a first step and says she will work alongside them to build clearer coping strategies and stronger day-to-day routines.

EMDR and practical approaches for online care

EMDR, or Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, helps people process traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided techniques to reduce distress and improve how memories feel in daily life. It is often used for trauma, abuse, and distressing past events.

Person-centered work focuses on creating a respectful space to talk through what matters most, while cognitive-behavioral ideas look at patterns of thinking and behavior to build new coping skills. These approaches help with anxiety, anger, depression, and life transitions by teaching concrete strategies and supportive conversation.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christy will work collaboratively to decide which methods to try based on a person’s goals, needs, and comfort. That plan can be adjusted over time as progress is reviewed.

Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions around school, work, or caregiving, and reducing travel time so appointments are easier to keep. Online work can allow shorter check-ins when needed and make it simpler to include real-life examples from the client’s day.
