See more cliniciansAbout
Christie’s approach to patient care is grounded in authenticity, curiosity, and respect for each individual’s lived experience. She practices from a trauma-informed, relational lens and believes that healing happens through trust, collaboration, and honesty. She values thoughtful assessment, psychoeducation, and shared decision-making, and aims to empower patients to better understand themselves and their patterns, not just manage symptoms.
Christie’s strengths include emotional attunement, empathy, and the ability to tolerate complexity in a nonjudgmental way. She believes emotions are not problems to eliminate, but signals to listen to and integrate.
She integrates evidence-based psychopharmacology with a holistic understanding of the person, considering sleep, relationships, environment, and cultural values alongside medication decisions. Above all, she approaches her work with humility and openness, recognizing that each patient is the expert on their own experience.
Outside of work, Christie enjoys spending time in nature, camping, dancing, skiing, and attending live music events. She also loves knitting and textile arts, which she finds grounding and meditative. She believes creativity, movement, and connection are powerful tools for healing, and often integrates these perspectives into her practice.
