Most likely, you found your way here because you're wanting something to change in your life or in yourself. Maybe you're wanting to change a family situation, improve a relationship, solve a specific problem or simply bring a healthier balance to your life. The situation that brings you here may be a recent one, or it may be a problem that you have struggled with for a long time.
If you're like most people, you have probably expended your best efforts to change things on your own. When we do our best and change does not come, it is easy to feel "stuck", discouraged or even hopeless. Counseling is the process that seeks to help you get "unstuck" and to bring about change.

Services
Standard fees are $130 for the initial assessment and $130 for regular sessions (45-50 minutes). For those who choose to pay out of pocket instead of using insurance benefits, I am often able to offer a slightly reduced rate for sessions. Please feel free to ask about reduced rates. Clients have the option of paying for services by using insurance benefits or by paying out of pocket.

Dr. Widger is such an amazing counselor. She continuously provides me with a variety of ways to view specific situations, circumstances, and events that I have experienced or am currently experiencing. Dr. Widger’s office is such a calming, comfortable space that makes one feel relaxed as soon as they enter. Additionally, Dr. Widger is so friendly, positive, and kind that it would be hard for anyone to not feel at ease in opening up to her. She is very accommodating with my fluctuating schedule, and is always happy to reschedule quickly if I am unable to make my appointment. Overall, I can say

Christie was recommended to me by a dear friend and I will be forever grateful. Christie has help me in so ways; she is so encouraging, non-judgmental, and has such kind heart. I trust her so much that I have sent family members to her. Words can not adequately express what a blessing she has been to me.

We have been going to Christie at Footsteps Counseling for several years now and she has been such a blessing to our family. She is logical, positive, and encouraging. Her professionalism, insight, and behavioral tools have helped us navigate common child and teen challenges. I would highly recommend her.

My daughters have been counseled by Christie the past four years beginning at the ages of 10 and 16 when their parents separated. Our family has been so blessed as she has helped us navigate through the teen years and now into adulthood with the many ups and downs and sometimes big bumps in the road. We all love Christie and she will continue to play an important part in their lives for many more years to come. My daughters have truly benefited from her warm, friendly, and caring nature. Her guidance has been a big factor in the beautiful young ladies my girls are today. I'll be forever grateful

Christie is absolutely wonderful! After many failed attempts with others, my daughter was able to form an instant bond with Christie! She is compassionate, perceptive and knowledgeable. Christie is genuine with a truly loving Christian spirit. She has given my daughter the tools to help manage and understand her depression and anxiety. Christie is always accessible and willing to help if a sudden crisis occurs. My daughter will continue to see Christie as she navigates all the difficult issues that present themselves during the teenage years. I wouldn't trust anyone else but Christie to give my

My children have been going here for about a year now, and we have seen a marked improvement in their behavior. They now have the tools to talk through their emotions and reach out when they need it. Ms.Christie is always so flexible with our schedules and always works to accommodate us--even with unplanned sessions. We just love her. I cannot say enough great things about her. If you need counseling, she is the best IMHO.
