About Christy
Christy Stinton is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor (LCPC) in New Hampshire with 14 years of experience. She works with adults on stress, anxiety, depression, anger, relationship concerns, parenting, grief, trauma and other life challenges. Sessions are presented plainly and directly to help people manage strong feelings and day-to-day strain.
Christy draws on approaches that include Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) alongside cognitive and person-centered ideas. In practical terms she helps people slow down reactive patterns, learn different ways to respond, and process past events that keep popping up. The work is conversational and skills-focused rather than overly academic.
She has supported people through career changes, coping with loss, and struggles with attention or mood differences. She also addresses addiction-related concerns and issues faced by LGBT people. Her background includes over a decade of clinical practice in New Hampshire and neighboring regions.
Sessions aim to balance short-term tools and deeper processing. That might mean learning breathing and grounding techniques, practicing communication moves, or using EMDR for troubling memories. Christy adapts the pace to what each person needs while keeping goals clear and practical.
People who come when anger is starting to affect relationships or work often focus on understanding triggers and building new habits. She helps break down moments of high emotion into steps that can be practiced outside sessions. The emphasis stays on useful, real-world change rather than labels or promises.
How sessions work
How EMDR and practical approaches translate to online work
EMDR is a method that helps process upsetting memories by combining focused attention with guided bilateral stimulation. It is often used for trauma, repetitive distressing memories, and reactions that keep returning during everyday life. Sessions usually involve reviewing a target memory, addressing the strongest feelings, and working through the memory in manageable steps.Cognitive-style techniques focus on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing different responses. These skills help with anger at work or home by giving concrete steps to interrupt automatic reactions. Person-centered elements keep the conversation grounded in what matters to the individual and what they want to change.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide whether to use EMDR, skills training, or a mix based on goals and comfort. That choice can shift as progress is made and priorities change.
The original biography did not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when that suits a schedule. Some people prefer video for full interaction while others choose audio for quicker access; discuss format needs when you schedule the first session.
