About Christina

Christina Medis is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in Florida with nine years of experience. She works with relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, self-esteem, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, and life transitions. She also addresses career stress, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and intimacy-related issues.

Christina uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She listens first, then helps people identify practical next steps. Her approach draws on client-centered ideas, mindfulness, solution-focused techniques and parts work to help people notice patterns and try new ways of coping.

Sessions often focus on communication, boundaries, and problem-solving. Christina helps people talk through attachment and abandonment issues, blended family stress, divorce and separation, and family of origin concerns. She also supports parents with fatherhood questions and fertility-related strain by working on clear goals and small changes.

Her work can include brief coaching-style conversations or deeper exploration of long-standing patterns. Christina helps clients break down big problems into workable steps. She uses mindfulness practices to manage anxiety and solution-focused moves to build momentum toward specific goals.

People usually start by describing the current problem they want to fix. Christina then outlines practical options and checks what feels doable. She asks about strengths and supports, and helps set a plan for the first few sessions.

Approaches used and how online sessions work

Christina draws on client-centered work that focuses on the person’s own experience and strengths, helping people notice what matters to them and make choices that fit their life. Mindfulness techniques are used to build calm and present-moment awareness, which can reduce anxiety and make emotional reactions easier to manage. Solution-focused work emphasizes setting clear, short-term goals and testing small changes to create momentum toward preferred outcomes.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina treats this as a collaborative process. She will review goals, try methods that suit the client, and adjust direction based on what helps and what feels doable for the person in front of her.

Confirm current session options before booking, since formats were not specified in the biography. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, and remove travel time for people juggling school or early career commitments. Talk with Christina during the first appointment about how to structure sessions so they fit work, study, and everyday life.
