Christle Reddix

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who specializes in working with adolescents, teens, and young people navigating emotional, behavioral, and relational challenges. Many of the teens and families I support are dealing with anxiety, depression, anger outbursts, defiance, low self-esteem, school stress, peer conflict, family tension, and difficulty managing big emotions. Parents often come to me feeling overwhelmed, unsure how to help, or concerned about changes in behavior, mood, or communication at home.

I believe healing begins with feeling truly seen, heard, and understood. I provide a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where young people can safely express themselves, build trust, strengthen emotional regulation, and develop a stronger sense of identity and self-worth. My work also focuses on helping families improve communication, reduce conflict, rebuild connection, and create more stable, supportive relationships at home. My goal is to help teens feel more confident and families feel more connected.

My approach is collaborative, solution-focused, and strengths-based, drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Reality Therapy. I help teens and families understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected - especially when anxiety, depression, impulsivity, oppositional behavior, or communication breakdowns are creating stress. Together, we identify practical strategies to manage anger, reduce anxiety symptoms, improve coping skills, and increase accountability. Therapy is tailored to each individual and family system, meeting you where you are while gently challenging growth. My goal is to empower young people to make healthier choices and strengthen relationships that support long-term emotional well-being.

The first session is designed to feel welcoming, supportive, and pressure-free. We’ll take time to understand what’s been happening - whether that’s mood changes, behavioral concerns, family conflict, academic stress, or emotional overwhelm. I’ll ask thoughtful questions to clarify goals and identify patterns contributing to current challenges. Families can expect clear direction, open communication, and an early plan for moving forward. My hope is that you leave feeling heard, respected, and more confident about the next steps toward healthier relationships and emotional stability.
