About Christine

Christine Edwards is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with ten years of experience. She works with adults on common early-adulthood pressures such as anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, and coping with life changes, and also addresses mood disorders like depression and bipolar. Christine also lists work with trauma, addictions, ADHD, self-esteem, grief, parenting strain, and intimacy-related issues.

Her style is client-centered and humanistic, grounded in listening and respect. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Dialectical behavior skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance become priorities.

Christine also draws on emotionally-focused methods and the Gottman Method to address relationship patterns. She adapts approaches as needed and combines methods to match what each person brings to sessions. Sessions focus on practical strategies and clearer ways to handle real problems.

She describes therapy as a collaborative effort where the person’s goals guide the work. Christine helps people map small, achievable steps when life changes feel overwhelming. She also supports those dealing with medical or caregiving stress and chronic illness challenges.

Her background spans individual concerns and family-related stress, and she frames treatment to address both symptom relief and daily functioning. To begin, Christine asks people to complete an initial questionnaire and schedule a first session so the plan can be shaped around their needs.

How her therapeutic approaches translate to online work

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and building a respectful working relationship. Online sessions can follow the same rhythm, focusing on the person’s concerns while the therapist reflects and clarifies to help sort feelings and priorities.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. In online sessions CBT tasks can include structured goal-setting, thought records, and homework that fit into studies, work, or daily routines.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) supplies concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness. These skills are taught and practiced in sessions and can be reviewed between meetings to support real-world use.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to decide which methods match their goals and preferences. That decision is revisited as needs change so the plan stays practical and relevant.

Session formats were not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Explain your daily routine and constraints at the first meeting so session length and homework can be adjusted to fit your life.
