About Christine
Christine Edwards is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) working in Florida with ten years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, relationship and family concerns, grief, and ADHD. She sees individuals who want practical help with day-to-day struggles and coping skills.
She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside client-centered methods and elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT), and the Gottman Method. Sessions emphasize noticing unhelpful thoughts and habits, then testing different ways of responding. Conversations are straightforward and aim to produce clear steps to try between meetings.
Christine draws on a humanistic stance in session. She listens, reflects, and helps people find what works for them. She adapts treatment plans as needs change and focuses on concrete strategies for managing symptoms and improving routines.
Her work covers a wide set of concerns beyond mood and anxiety, including attachment issues, codependency, caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, body image, and dissociation. She also addresses intimacy-related problems, communication and commitment issues, and the effects of trauma and loss.
People who come to her often want practical tools they can use right away. She offers a mix of skill-building, emotional processing, and relational work aimed at clearer thinking, steadier mood, and better interactions with others. The emphasis is on useful steps and plain language rather than clinical jargon.
How CBT and related approaches are used online
Christine often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going and then practices alternative reactions. CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and for building everyday coping routines.She also integrates client-centered work, which focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can choose their next steps. When emotional regulation or interpersonal skills are a concern she brings in Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques to teach concrete coping skills and emotion-management strategies.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She collaborates with each person to decide whether CBT, client-centered methods, or DBT skills will fit their goals and preferences. That decision can change as issues shift over time, and she adjusts plans accordingly.
Confirm the session formats offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific online options. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists can guide practice exercises between meetings and help people apply new skills to daily routines.
