My name is Christie Howley, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 15 years of professional experience. I have an extensive background supporting all types of clients, but find I primarily enjoy working adults. Much of my work has been in the areas of life changes and trauma; I have a particular focus and expertise in the areas of anxiety, self-esteem, interpersonal violence, family conflict, relationship issues, and working through past and current traumas, and navigating healing.

With a trauma-informed lens, I aim to let you lead the sessions. I am not here to give advice or make decisions for you. My goal is to help offer tools to empower you to make the best choices for yourself. I am merely an agent to help you make change. After all, you are the only person who knows you best. I honor confidentiality and respect boundaries and truly want to make a connection with you. It’s always a safe space here.

I work with each client to help identify specific goals that you would like to accomplish through our work together. I realize that goals can shift, and I will always reconnect to make sure we are working on the issues you want to focus on. I want to make sure you feel empowered, supported, validated and that you are on the path you want to be on.
