About Me:

Hi, I’m Christie McCullough!

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor who provides trauma-informed healing for teens and adults navigating anxiety, depression, trauma, religious wounding, and major life transitions. My approach is compassionate and collaborative—rooted in the belief that everyone deserves a safe space to reclaim their voice, reconnect with themselves, and move toward a more empowered life.

I work with clients facing a wide range of emotional and relational challenges, including mood disorders, bipolar disorder, personality disorders, grief, relationship struggles, and women’s issues. I am especially passionate about helping clients heal from PTSD and complex trauma, religious trauma, and life transitions that leave them feeling unsteady or unsure of their next step.

With advanced training in EMDR, Brainspotting, CBT, DBT, ACT, Narrative Therapy, and mindfulness-based interventions, I blend a variety of therapeutic modalities to meet clients’ unique therapy goals. My work is eclectic—flexible, responsive, and tailored to each individual’s needs, history, and goals. Whether you need structure, gentle exploration, practical coping tools, or deeper trauma processing, I adjust my approach to support your healing journey at your pace.

My therapy room is a warm, judgment-free space where clients can show up authentically, explore difficult experiences safely, and rebuild emotional resilience. I view the therapeutic relationship as a partnership—one where I work with you to help you understand patterns, develop healthier boundaries, and move toward greater clarity and self-trust.

I truly enjoy meeting new people from all walks of life and doing whatever I can to assist them along the path to healing and improved overall life functioning. As a trauma-informed provider, I strive to meet clients where they are and accompany them along their healing journey using and adapting an eclectic collection of therapeutic modalities to best suit their needs.

If you’re ready to heal, grow, and rediscover your strength with a supportive guide beside you, Christie is here to help you take the next step.

Who I Help:

Many of my  clients come to me saying they feel confused and defeated by life’s circumstances, and they cannot seem to move forward, despite many earnest attempts.

They may feel isolated or abandoned, believing no one can understand their loneliness and often-hidden pain. They report strained relationships and broken hearts. Some have never seen a therapist before, and many wonder whether counseling can really make a difference.

I truly enjoy meeting new people from all walks of life and doing whatever I can to assist them along the path to healing and improved overall life functioning. As a trauma-informed provider, I strive to work with clients to meet them where they are and accompany them along their healing journey using and adapting an eclectic collection of therapeutic modalities to best suit my clients’ needs.
