About Christi
Christi Fields is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with ten years of experience helping people cope with stress, anxiety, anger, depression, and life transitions. She offers straightforward support for parenting concerns, addiction issues, grief, relationship strain, and questions about identity and intimacy. Christi works in New Mexico and provides services in English.
Christi uses a calm, nonjudgmental style. She focuses on what a person wants to change and helps them build practical steps toward that goal.
Background and approach
Sessions often include skill practice, problem-solving, and checking what is actually working in day-to-day life. Her approach draws on client-centered care, cognitive behavioral techniques, and solution-focused strategies. That means conversations center on the person’s priorities, thoughts and behaviors are examined for small changes, and short-term goals are set to see quick improvements.
Motivational interviewing is used when people are weighing change or struggling with commitment. Christi has worked in settings that included court-related, criminal justice, and child welfare involvement. She has experience providing counseling, clinical case management, and parenting psycho-education.
This background helps when practical coordination with services matters alongside therapy. People who meet with Christi can expect collaboration on realistic goals rather than pressure for perfection. She uses a harm-reduction perspective and emphasizes self-determination.
Her work aims to help people find manageable ways to reduce distress and move toward a life they value.

How Christi’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy places the person’s goals and values at the center of each session. In practice this means conversations follow what matters most to the client, and the therapist listens to shape goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and trying small experiments to change them. It is often useful for anxiety, depression, and anger when people want skill-based tools.Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Christi will talk with each person about what they want to achieve and suggest techniques that fit their needs. Together they try methods, check what helps, and adjust the plan based on results and preference.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when being on camera is not needed. Live chat and text-based messaging offer brief check-ins, skills practice, or a way to communicate between longer sessions. These options provide flexibility so people can access consistent support without major travel.
