Getting to know Heidi Christy

My primary areas of interest include anxiety, depression, ADHD, and substance abuse, with a focus on teenagers and young adults. I use a mindfulness-based holistic approach to assist in goal achievement. I believe in the impact that a healthy lifestyle has on every area of life. I promote empowerment, dignity, and respect for all clients, regardless of age, race, gender, background, or sexual orientation. For the past 15 years, I have specialized in providing treatment for teenagers and young adults. I really enjoy being part of positive change related to self-esteem and empowerment. With our current climate, depression and anxiety rates are skyrocketing among our younger population. Education, treatment, support, and advocacy are critical. I hold a Master's in Social Work from the University of Pittsburgh, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to provide compassionate, evidence-based care.

What should a new client know about working with you?

During our first session, we will determine if I am the right fit for you. The therapeutic relationship is a key component of the success of therapy. If I am not the right fit, I will make a recommendation from a network of providers. If you decide I am the right therapist for you, we will discuss your goals and discuss my treatment approach to helping you achieve them.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

Christy is well rounded and very knowledgeable in what she does. Working with her will be easy and rewarding.
She truly listens to you and gives feedback for self improvement. She wants the best for you and really try’s to help.
Heidi's been a tremendous inspiration to me so far throughout my recovery. I'm very thankful to have her as my therapist.
I enjoy talking with Heidi and look forward to our future sessions.
Listens well, helps and gives personal examples. Happy and high energy vibe.
Seems to be very authentic and down to earth, felt very comfortable with her and look forward to working with her. Loved how direct and to the point she was as well.
Heidi has really helped me improve my personal views on life with just the few sessions I’ve had with her. I feel very comfortable when opening up to her.
Heidi has been wonderful. She very quickly picked up on my ability to parse through my emotions best when given, prompts, homework, or writing assignments and it has been such a great way to pay attention to my emotions and reactions to them. Plus, she is so easy to talk to and it seems obvious that we are similar people with similar core beliefs, which is always very helpful in a therapy setting.
Heidi is amazing, nonjudgmental, and great at pushing you towards growth. She’s made me feel so comfortable right from our first session.
Heidi is awesome! She is direct and funny, and empathetic while still remaining solution and goal focused. She helps me focus on my strengths as well as my weaknesses, and she does a great job of giving me strategies to step back and see the big picture.
