About Christa
Christa Martin is a licensed professional counselor who helps people dealing with anxiety, stress, panic attacks, and life changes. She practices with attention to each person’s values and aims to make sessions practical and calm. Christa’s work is straightforward and focused on usable skills rather than long lectures or jargon.
Christa uses tools from cognitive behavioral approaches to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking patterns. She also brings in mindfulness practices to teach simple ways to manage intense moments. When trauma is part of the story, she may use approaches intended to reduce the hold of distressing memories while keeping the client’s pace in mind.
Her background includes seven years working with veterans, first responders, and people facing strong stressors. Christa’s Mississippi practice emphasizes coping strategies for panic disorder and panic attacks, mood concerns, and substance-related struggles. She aims to help people build steady routines and clearer thinking when anxiety feels overwhelming.
Sessions commonly address relationships, money worries, parenting strain, grief, and job or career stress. Christa focuses on small, achievable steps the client can try between meetings. She frames therapy as a collaborative effort where the person sets goals and she provides structured methods to reach them.
Christa holds an MS and is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC). She practices in Mississippi and offers therapy in English. Before scheduling, readers should confirm the current session format options.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Christa often uses cognitive behavioral methods to help people identify upsetting thought patterns and try new ways of responding. CBT tends to focus on small behavior changes and practical exercises that can be practiced between sessions.She also incorporates mindfulness techniques to teach steadying attention and breathing strategies. Mindfulness work is useful for moments of panic, anxious spikes, and ongoing stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christa will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and comfort level. That decision is collaborative and may shift over time as needs change.
