About Christie
Christie Davis-Uwah is a licensed clinical social worker, LCSW, practicing in North Carolina with 14 years of experience. She helps people manage anxiety, depression, stress, and life transitions. Christie also works with concerns such as addictions, self-esteem, grief, and parenting challenges.
She uses straightforward, practical methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try different responses. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the approaches she includes to address thinking patterns that feed anxiety and low mood. She also draws on client-centered work and solution-focused techniques to keep sessions action oriented.
Christie pays attention to cultural background and women’s issues when they matter to a person’s concerns. She supports people dealing with caregiving stress, aging and geriatric issues, and end-of-life decisions, and she talks through family and communication problems in clear, direct terms.
For people facing addiction or substance concerns, she integrates motivational interviewing to increase readiness for change and to set practical goals. She also helps clients who are navigating divorce, career shifts, prejudice and discrimination, or grief after a loss.
Sessions focus on identifying small, achievable steps and building coping skills that fit into everyday life. Christie asks questions, suggests exercises to try between sessions, and reviews what works and what needs adjusting. This approach aims to make therapy practical and usable for daily stressors.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Christie commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Motivational Interviewing in her online practice. CBT means noticing patterns of thought and trying small behavioral changes to reduce anxiety or low mood. Motivational Interviewing focuses on clarifying a person’s own reasons for change and building motivation step by step.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christie collaborates with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. She will suggest concrete exercises and then review what helped and what needs adjusting so the plan stays practical and goal focused.
Confirm the current session formats before booking since session types are not specified in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy life, allow shorter check-in visits when time is tight, and remove travel time so people can keep therapy alongside work, caregiving, or medical appointments. The focus stays on usable tools and steady progress rather than long explanations.
