Christy Stinton, LPC, LCPC

Christy Stinton is a licensed counselor who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and life transitions. She practices in New Hampshire and communicates in English. Christy brings a calm, interactive approach to sessions and aims to create a steady space where people can talk things through and plan next steps.

With 14 years of experience, Christy draws on several ways of working to match each person’s needs. She uses person-centered listening to understand what matters most to the individual. She also incorporates cognitive-behavioral ideas to tackle unhelpful thinking patterns and practical coping skills. In addition, she uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) when trauma or painful memories are part of the picture.

Christy often supports people dealing with grief, parenting challenges, addictions, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and career stress. She also helps those facing infertility-related distress, attachment concerns, and divorce-related issues. Her style is warm and collaborative, focusing on what a person wants to change and the small steps that make it possible.

Sessions focus on clear goals and workable strategies rather than abstract theory. Conversations are tailored so tools feel relevant to day-to-day life. Christy emphasizes empowerment and practical progress while respecting each person’s pace.

If someone is ready to begin, Christy asks them to start with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability. She aims to guide each person toward more satisfying ways of coping and relating.

EMDR and practical approaches for online care

Christy uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, which helps people process traumatic memories by pairing focused attention with guided bilateral stimulation to reduce the emotional charge around difficult events. This can be useful when past trauma or abuse affects day-to-day functioning.

She combines that work with person-centered listening that prioritizes the individual's goals. She also uses cognitive-behavioral strategies to identify unhelpful thinking and build coping tools for anxiety, mood, or stress-related problems. Each method is described plainly so people know what to expect in sessions.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, past experiences, and preferences to decide whether EMDR or other strategies are the best fit. Clients take part in planning the work and can adjust direction as therapy progresses.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking since the biography did not list specific formats. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and help fit sessions into busy lives, such as using shorter check-ins during a work break or reducing travel time. Licensed professionals can also adapt exercises for remote work so therapeutic tools remain practical and usable between sessions.
