I am licensed in Georgia with many years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I believe in helping each person achieve their own goals and walking with them rather than directing them. I am direct with each person I work with but will always treat my clients with respect and unconditional acceptance. I sometime bring my geeky nature into therapy. Do we need to explore your identity I developed a Star Trek based intervention to help with that. Do you want to explore your view of yourself or your partner we can use aspects dungeons and dragons to explore that. Have you been feeling disempowered , lets channel your inner super hero! I try to make your therapy experience as specific to your needs and goals. Thank you for trusting me to take this journey with you.

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Christy Bell. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
Christy continues to have a huge influence in both my recovery and my general well being. She honestly helped me regain confidence in mental health care. She is a valuable asset and a wonderful therapist.
