About Christine

Christine Edwards is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She brings ten years of experience and a straightforward, human-focused way of working. She talks with people in plain language and focuses on what they want to change.

Christine emphasizes respect, compassion, and a nonjudgmental attitude in sessions. Her practice covers a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, addictions, and ADHD.

Background and approach

She also addresses relationship and family issues, parenting, grief, intimacy-related problems, and anger. Additional areas she works with include attachment and abandonment concerns, codependency, chronic illness and pain, caregiver stress, body image, and dissociation. Christine combines client-centered listening with structured tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and skills from dialectical behavior therapy.

She also uses elements of Emotionally-Focused Therapy and the Gottman Method when relationship work is needed. Treatment plans are adjusted to fit each person’s situation and goals. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Christine notes that international clients are not accepted. Pricing varies with location and uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time. To begin, a person selects the Start Therapy button, completes a short matching questionnaire, and schedules according to the therapist’s availability.

Christine aims to support people through practical steps and steady guidance as they navigate life changes.

Online approaches that meet practical family needs

Client-centered therapy starts with listening. The therapist follows the person’s lead and creates space to talk about what matters most, which helps clarify goals and build trust. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, and managing reactions to stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day challenges to decide which methods to try first. Sessions often mix listening with specific skills training so the plan can change as needs evolve.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to meet. Video calls let people use face-to-face time for deeper conversations. Phone sessions can work when schedules are tight, and live chat or text-based messaging provide shorter check-ins and skills coaching between appointments. These options aim to make consistent care easier to fit into a busy life.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT)

Concrete skills for riding out strong emotion, tolerating distress, and handling relationships without things escalating. The skills are practised in daily life, so between-session support by message or phone fits naturally.
