About Christa
Christa Martin is a licensed professional counselor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and trauma. She uses clear, practical steps so clients can start feeling steadier in everyday life. Christa works with adults facing life changes, career stress, parenting strain, grief, and challenges tied to mood and panic.
She draws on several approaches to shape each session around what the client needs. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps spot unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is included for people who want to process traumatic memories. Mindfulness work and solution-focused tools support coping and short-term goals. Christa has seven years of counseling experience and holds an LPC credential - Licensed Professional Counselor.
She practices in Mississippi and brings experience supporting veterans, first responders, and people facing financial or family problems. That background informs practical strategies for stressful jobs and transition periods. Sessions move at a person’s pace.
Early visits focus on immediate concerns and simple coping strategies. From there, she and the client set goals and try approaches that fit that person’s preferences and schedule. Clients can expect straightforward language and concrete steps rather than lots of clinical jargon.
The aim is to build useful habits, improve mood regulation, and create realistic plans for handling anxiety, panic, or difficult relationships. Christa integrates faith-informed perspectives when clients want that included, while keeping the focus on skills, resilience, and practical progress.

Online support
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Christa often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice patterns of thinking that make anxiety or depression worse, then practice small behavior changes to reduce symptoms. CBT works well for worries, panic attacks, and mood problems because it focuses on concrete skills.She also offers Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing as one option for processing traumatic memories and reducing their emotional intensity. EMDR is presented as a step-by-step approach that targets specific distressing memories while pairing them with guided attention.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to current concerns, discuss goals, and try methods that fit the person’s comfort and needs. Plans are adjusted over time based on what helps most.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more convenient. Video lets people work in a near face-to-face format, phone visits use less bandwidth, and messaging or live chat can be useful for brief check-ins or when a written record of thoughts helps progress. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, parenting, or busy schedules while keeping treatment consistent over time.
