About Christi
Her work often includes parenting psycho-education and clinical case management. Christi has worked with people connected to the child welfare and criminal justice systems, and she has supported those facing homelessness, substance use, trauma, and domestic violence. She also helps with adoption and foster care concerns, blended family issues, and family-of-origin problems.
Christi’s approach centers on client self-determination and empowerment. She uses a harm-reduction mindset and focuses on what is realistically manageable rather than perfection. Sessions tend to be practical and goal-oriented, with an emphasis on small, achievable steps that fit a person’s life.
Her methods draw on Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Solution-Focused Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. Those methods are used in short-term, integrated ways to address symptoms and daily challenges. Conversations in sessions are meant to feel respectful and nonjudgmental.
Christi practices in New Mexico and works in English. She has an LCSW credential and a decade of direct practice experience supporting people with a wide range of concerns. To begin, readers are invited to follow the site’s process for matching and scheduling a first appointment.
