Cristi works with adults and couples who carry significant responsibility in their lives. She specializes in anxiety and depression, grief and loss, relationship concerns, infertility, self-esteem, and life transitions. Many of the individuals she works with are high-functioning and deeply committed, yet feel stuck in relational patterns, internal pressure, or emotional exhaustion. She offers a grounded, supportive space to process what often feels hard to untangle alone.
She works with women navigating burnout, fertility challenges, and identity shifts, as well as men moving through major life transitions such as divorce. Cristi brings depth to her work with grief, anticipatory grief, caregiving roles, and reproductive loss, offering steady support during seasons that feel uncertain or overwhelming.
Cristi is the Founder and Clinical Director of Austin Counseling House and maintains her own private practice. If there is no available appointments that work for your schedule and needs in either practice she does have other clinicians that she can refer you to within Austin Counseling House that do accept insurance and work on a sliding scale.

We hope that when you visit us you feel embraced in a warm setting with a therapist that will use their expertise to engage you in the process. We are guided by many different theories, clinical modalities, and specialties. While therapy can be emotional work there is also joy and connection and laughter in many of our sessions.
