About Christi

Christi Jones begins from a long-established clinical path, bringing 25 years of counseling experience and an Oklahoma LPC credential to her practice.

Background and approach

She frames therapy as a collaborative process that honors a person's expertise about their own life, offering practical tools and paced support to address stress, anxiety, trauma, family conflict, depression, addictions, grief, and a wide range of related concerns. Christi emphasizes using clients' strengths to solve problems and encourages clients to decide how deeply to explore their experiences.

Her approach blends client-centered care with strategies drawn from cognitive behavioral and emotion-focused work, along with mindfulness and motivational interviewing techniques. This integrative stance allows her to tailor interventions to each person's comfort level, whether the focus is on changing unhelpful thinking patterns, processing attachment and relational themes, or developing coping skills for life transitions.

Christi practices from Oklahoma and accepts international clients, offering multiple session formats to fit differing needs and schedules.

Integrating Evidence-Informed Approaches into Online Care

Christi commonly draws on cognitive behavioral techniques to help clients identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping skills development. She also uses client-centered principles that focus on empathy, respect, and supporting the client's own goals so people feel heard and involved in deciding therapy direction. Emotionally-focused approaches are also part of her toolkit, helping clients explore relational themes, attachment patterns, and emotional experiences to bring greater understanding to interpersonal or intimacy-related issues.

Choosing the right approach is seen as a collaborative process. Christi works with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and comfort level, and she adapts interventions over time as progress and preferences become clearer. That collaborative stance helps clients feel empowered in shaping therapy content and pace.

Online therapy with Christi is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives, continue care during transitions, and connect from different locations while maintaining the same therapeutic focus and professional support provided by licensed professionals.
