About Christine
Christine Finch-Huskey is a licensed mental health counselor in Florida who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, parenting strain, and trauma. She speaks plainly and meets people where they are. She focuses on practical steps that fit an individual's life and values.
Christine uses respect, sensitivity, and compassion when she talks with clients. She draws on 11 years of clinical experience and uses several evidence-informed methods. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and change behaviors that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes the person's goals and pace, with the therapist listening and reflecting so the client leads the work. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone feels stuck or unsure about change; it helps clarify personal reasons to move forward. Solution-Focused Therapy concentrates on strengths and small forward steps to create momentum.
Trauma-Focused Therapy guides work with painful past events while keeping safety and pacing in mind. Christine adapts conversations and plans to each person's situation. She pays attention to communication, coping skills, and realistic goals.
Many people find this approach useful for issues such as grief, relationship stress, parenting concerns, addiction, ADHD, and life transitions. Sessions are offered through a range of online formats so therapy can fit busy schedules. Christine encourages people to take the first step and complete a brief intake to begin matching with a therapist.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit your life
Christine commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Client-Centered Therapy in her work. CBT is a hands-on method that helps people spot unhelpful thoughts and test small changes in behavior to reduce anxiety or depression. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's own goals and pace, with the therapist listening carefully and reflecting so the client leads the direction of the work.She also uses Motivational Interviewing when someone feels stuck about making changes. This approach helps clarify personal reasons for change and builds internal motivation in a collaborative way. Together the client and therapist choose which methods to try based on needs, goals, and comfort level rather than following a one-size-fits-all plan.
Online therapy makes it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation from home, phone sessions work for people on the go, and live chat or text messaging let clients check in between sessions or use brief, written support. These options increase flexibility and help people maintain continuity while working toward their goals.
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.
Motivational Interviewing
A way of working through mixed feelings about change without being pushed. The therapist helps you weigh things up and find your own reasons, which often makes a difficult decision feel less stuck.
