About Christi

Christi Nelson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC), a state-licensed mental health professional practicing in Texas with 19 years of experience in the mental health and addiction field. She brings long-term clinical experience to a wide range of concerns, helping people navigate issues such as stress, anxiety, addiction, grief, self-esteem struggles, relationship and family problems, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, mood disorders, career questions, and compassion fatigue.

Her work is grounded in a warm, approachable style that emphasizes respect, sensitivity, and compassion. Christi aims to create a nonjudgmental space where people can explore difficult emotions, identify patterns that get in the way, and develop practical coping skills. Her clinical approach draws from client-centered principles and evidence-informed therapies including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), existential perspectives, and mindfulness practices to tailor care to each person’s needs.

Christi collaborates with clients to build individualized treatment plans that reflect their goals and values. She encourages those who are hesitant about seeking help, recognizing that reaching out is often the hardest first step, and offers steady support and guidance to help people clarify direction and work toward meaningful change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christi Nelson integrates client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people explore their goals and build practical skills. Client-centered therapy focuses on empathetic listening and collaboration so the person sets the pace and priorities, which works well for life transitions, identity concerns, and relationship challenges. CBT offers structured tools to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replace them with more effective patterns, useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with stress.

She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) strategies when needed, teaching emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills that can be especially helpful for intense emotions, impulsivity, and relationship difficulties. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process - Christi works with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences and adjusts the plan as therapy progresses.

Online therapy with Christi includes video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, offering flexibility for different schedules and needs. These options make it easier to access regular support from licensed professionals without disrupting daily life, and they allow therapeutic work to continue during times of change or limited mobility.
