Meet Patricia Christie, LPC

Hi! I’m Patricia and being invited to your story and to walk alongside you is not something I take lightly. I believe that therapy has the potential to be deeply heartfelt and transformative both for you and for the people in your life. This passion led me to study Clinical Mental Health Counseling at a graduate level at the University of the Cumberlands. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor-Associate #95750 and am supervised by Mariah J. Tailleur, LPC Supervisor #66631.

My own journey has led me to marvel at the sacred work that is found in walking through life’s valleys and mountain tops. I grew up seeking and creating order in a chaotic world. As a young adult, I sought freedom through artistic expression. As I have processed all that comes with a very rich life, I have come out on the other side with a sense of peace and freedom. A new synthesis can be found through the integration and the delicate balance between order and freedom. This is an example of what we explore walking together as we address struggles like anxiety, depression, and relationship issues.

In life, we all experience many transitions and changes. The approach I use in therapy helps you capture the gems offered amidst those difficult times. If you are struggling, you don’t have to walk alone. I am here to walk with you so that you can emerge on the other side with a sense of peace. Through the autonomic nervous system healing that comes from expressive arts, synergetic play therapy, and attachment-based techniques explore where you are and where you want to go. I also offer Christian and Biblical counseling upon request.

Working with children, adolescents and their families is something I have 20+ years of experience in as an educator. I offer therapy in English, Spanish and Portuguese. We can work together in the playroom, over coffee or on a walk outside.
