MEET Christie Hays

Christie Hays (she/they) is a therapist and business coach dedicated to helping highly sensitive, empath and intuitive therapists overcome burnout so that they can create thriving, sustainable, and full private pay practices. As a highly sensitive, empath, and intuitive person herself, Christie understands the unique challenges of running a healing business while feeling and expressing deeply. After experiencing almost career-ending burnout working in hospitals and agencies, Christie started her own private practice growing from just 3 clients every other week to full within 10 months. Combining her experience as a full private pay therapist along with a background in corporate training and public speaking, Christie founded the SoulFULL Practice Academy to provide business coaching tailored to the specific needs of the highly sensitive, empath, and intuitive healer in private practice. She brings a wealth of real-world experience to her coaching focusing on teaching therapists how to attract their ideal private pay clients, implement sustainable business practices while shedding the practices that contribute to burnout, and the importance of creating a mindset that empowers you and your business. Her compassionate approach and practical insights make her a sought-after speaker and coach in the mental health and wellness community.
