About Christy
Christy Stinton works with people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and big life changes. She greets clients with a warm, interactive style and aims to make sessions feel direct and practical. Christy uses clear conversation and tailored plans to help people take the next step toward change.
Christy has 14 years of experience as a licensed counselor. She holds LPC and LCPC credentials and is also listed as MD in her credentials.
How Christy works
She has helped people facing trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, parenting strain, career concerns, bipolar disorder, ADHD, and relationship or family conflict. She also supports clients exploring sexual orientation and LGBT issues. Her usual way of working blends talking therapies that focus on thinking patterns, development over time, and a person-centered approach that follows the client's pace.
Christy adapts sessions to fit each person's needs and life situation rather than following a single script. One of her clinical tools is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often used when people carry distressing memories that keep affecting day-to-day life. She pairs that with practical coping strategies for stress and emotion management.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and goal-focused, with steps people can use between meetings. Christy is based in New Hampshire and offers services in English. She accepts international clients and works with people across a wide range of concerns who want steady, practical support.

Online support options
EMDR and practical approaches in online therapy
Christy uses Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, a method that helps people process distressing memories that continue to cause strong reactions. EMDR typically involves guided attention and structured steps to reduce the intensity of troubling memories and the feelings tied to them.Alongside EMDR she emphasizes person-centered conversation and cognitive-behavioral ideas. That means sessions include listening to what matters most to the client, identifying unhelpful thought patterns, and practicing concrete skills to manage stress and mood between meetings.
Finding the right method is collaborative. Christy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and adjust the plan over time. Clients help decide whether EMDR, focused skill-building, or a mix fits best for their situation.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use visual cues and a fuller back-and-forth conversation. Phone sessions can be a simpler option when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, quick problem-solving, or fitting therapy into busy days. These options make it easier to schedule care around work, family, or travel, while keeping the focus on steady progress.
