About Christi
Christi Clark is an Ohio-based Licensed Independent Social Worker with ten years of experience as a psychotherapist. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, relationship problems, and the impact of trauma and abuse. Christi aims to make sessions feel calm and conversational for people who may be nervous about starting therapy.
Christi keeps a respectful, nonjudgmental tone in sessions. She listens closely and helps people name feelings and patterns that get in the way of daily life.
Background and approach
Her approach is practical and warm, with an emphasis on helping people make changes that feel doable. She draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at emotional bonds and how they shape relationships. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based techniques to help people clarify values, cope with difficult thoughts, and repair connection with others.
These methods are used alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral ideas when helpful. Christi has worked with people facing addictions, grief, parenting stress, bipolar mood challenges, LGBT concerns, compassion fatigue, and many life transitions. She also supports people dealing with attachment issues, adoption and foster care questions, chronic illness, caregiver stress, and body image concerns.
Sessions are offered in English and are provided through video calls, phone, live chat, or text messaging. Fees vary with location and therapist arrangements, and sessions use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.

Online support
How these approaches translate to online therapy
Christi uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people understand and shift emotional patterns that affect their relationships. EFT focuses on identifying core emotions and changing how people respond in close connections, which can help with relationship distress and attachment concerns.She also incorporates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while choosing actions that match their values. ACT is useful for managing anxiety, depression, and life changes by learning practical skills to move toward meaningful goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christi collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. She talks through options, tries techniques, and adjusts the plan based on what helps most in real life.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when visual connection matters. Phone sessions can be a good choice when bandwidth is limited or you need a shorter check-in. Live chat and text messaging offer quick, ongoing check-ins or a way to reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and keep work moving forward.
