About me
I am an experienced pscyhotherapist in private practice for the past 20 years, dedicated to providing compassionate, confidential and quality care to individuals and couples.
Christie has been working in field of social welfare for over 25 years. She was in private practice in the central Wisconsin area for 15 of those years. Moving to Madison in 2015, she worked as the School Mental Health Consultant for the Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction before, once again, opening up her own private practice, Bemis Psychotherapy and Consulting LLC.
Christie is a graduate of UW-Madison with a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Psychology and in Behavioral Science and Law. She is a graduate of UW-Milwaukee with a Master's Degree in Social Welfare.
Christie also owns and operates Hot Pink YOUniversity. Working with hundreds of women through coaching, retreats, travel and events to make transformational change and live life more fully.
Christie has worked in many areas of social welfare, including: child protection, juvenile justice, in-home family therapy, school social worker, treatment foster care worker and school based mental health. This gives her a multi-perspective view point when working with clients and a respect for the systems that might be a resource for clients. As well as the stress and intricacies that might be associated with each of the systems.
On a personal note, Christie lives in Madison, Wisconsin and enjoys kayaking, reading, campfires, boating and hiking. She loves to travel and meet new people and have new experiences in cultures not her own. Raised in a blended family and having first hand experience raising her own children in a blended family, Christie has sensitivity to issues that might arise in these circumstances in terms of communication and unique mental wellness issues.
