About Christa
Christa Martin is a licensed professional counselor who focuses on helping people manage overwhelming stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and life transitions. She works with individuals who are looking for practical ways to feel steadier and more in control. Her manner is direct and compassionate, aimed at making therapy feel manageable on a busy schedule.
Christa uses a mix of Emotionally-Focused Therapy and cognitive and behavioral tools to help people name what matters and change unhelpful patterns.
Background and approach
She also draws on EMDR and mindfulness practices when trauma or intense memories get in the way of daily life. Sessions are practical and goal-oriented, with room to process strong emotions when they arise. Her background includes work with veterans, first responders, and people dealing with family problems and financial stress.
That experience shapes how she approaches mood disorders, panic, postpartum depression, and grief. Christa pairs direct problem-solving with attention to emotional experience so clients can both cope and connect with what matters to them. Christa holds a Master of Science and is a Licensed Professional Counselor, practicing in Mississippi and Louisiana.
She has seven years of clinical experience and helps people who are ready to change habits, improve relationships, or find steadier ground after trauma. Therapy sessions combine short-term strategies and longer-term emotional work. Christa aims to help clients find clearer thinking, better coping skills, and practical steps toward everyday life changes.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Christa often combines Emotionally-Focused Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in online sessions. Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people and therapists identify and work with strong emotions that drive relationship and personal patterns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on changing thoughts and behaviors to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms and build new habits.She also uses EMDR and mindfulness tools when trauma memories or intense reactions interfere with daily life. The therapist and client decide together which approaches to try, tailoring the plan to the persons goals, history, and comfort with different methods. That collaborative process helps find a good fit rather than assuming one approach will suit everyone.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people work face-to-face when interaction and visual cues matter. Phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or easier when video is not practical. Live chat and text-based messaging support ongoing coaching, quick problem-solving, and notes between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or other daily demands while using Emotionally-Focused, CBT, or trauma-focused techniques as needed.
