About Christi
Christi Clark is an Independent Licensed Social Worker (LISW) in Ohio with 10 years of clinical experience. She works with adults on issues such as depression, anxiety, relationship strain, addictions, trauma and grief. Christi also helps people facing parenting stress, caregiving burdens, bipolar mood concerns, and struggles with self-esteem and coping with life changes.
Christi keeps sessions conversational and straightforward. She aims to listen without judgment and to treat people with respect and sensitivity. In sessions she uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral approaches and acceptance-based methods alongside attachment-focused conversations to address patterns that cause pain.
Her background includes supporting people affected by physical, emotional, or sexual abuse and working with those who have developmental disabilities, OCD, or ADHD. She has experience with a wide range of personality and relational issues, including attachment, avoidant and antisocial traits, codependency, and blended family stress.
Christi draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy skills when emotion regulation is needed, and she uses client-centered practices to keep the work grounded in each person's values and goals. That mix can help with managing anxiety, reducing unhelpful behavior patterns, and rebuilding relationships after loss or betrayal.
If someone wants to begin, Christi asks them to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and session costs vary with location.
Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online
Christi uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. ACT focuses on clarifying personal values and learning small actions to move toward those values despite difficult thoughts or feelings. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns influence current trust and closeness and can help with relationship and bonding concerns. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns and reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christi will collaborate with each person to choose strategies that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That means trying out different tools, checking what helps, and adjusting the plan together rather than using a one-size-fits-all method.
The biography does not specify which online session formats are offered, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. They also let people use techniques in the places where problems actually happen, such as practicing communication skills after a work or study day.
