About Christine

Christine Holden is a licensed professional counselor who offers practical help for people coping with stress, anxiety, depression, and life changes. She brings 22 years of clinical experience and focuses on building confidence, reducing anger, and addressing trauma and related concerns. Her tone is supportive and straightforward; she encourages clients to use their own strengths as the foundation for change.

Christine believes clients know their story best. She works alongside them to identify small, concrete steps that lead to better daily functioning.

Background and approach

Sessions emphasize clear goals, skills practice, and honest conversation rather than jargon or complex theory. With licenses as an MS Licensed Professional Counselor, LPC 1189, and Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC MH8034, Christine blends long experience with a practical, skills-focused approach. She draws on evidence-based techniques to address mood, motivation, and coping challenges.

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns including grief, parenting stress, career difficulties, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and mood disorders. She also supports people facing adoption and foster care issues, caregiving stress, and aging-related concerns. Sessions are offered in English and delivered remotely through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging.

Christine helps people set manageable goals and practices that fit daily life. If someone is ready to start, the pathway is a short matching questionnaire followed by scheduling the first session.

Evidence-based approaches for online support

Christine uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and coping. One approach emphasizes building emotion regulation and coping skills to manage anxiety, anger, and mood swings; it teaches simple steps clients can practice between sessions to feel steadier day to day. Another approach targets processing traumatic or painful experiences in a paced way, helping people reduce their reactivity and regain control over distressing memories and reactions.

Finding the right approach is part of working together. Christine will discuss options and tailor methods to fit each person’s goals, needs, and preferences. The plan is collaborative and may adjust over time as progress unfolds.

Online therapy offers flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These formats let people fit care into busy days, maintain contact between appointments, and choose the kind of interaction that feels most comfortable. For many, remote sessions make it easier to keep up with therapy while managing work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
