About Christine
Christine Edwards is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor with ten years of experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, and parenting challenges. She uses straightforward talk and practical tools to help people feel more steady. Christine keeps sessions respectful and down-to-earth.
Her work blends client-centered principles with cognitive behavioral techniques and elements from dialectical behavior therapy and emotionally focused work. That mix lets her focus on what you want to change and on patterns that keep problems repeating.
Background and approach
She tailors sessions to each person's needs and adjusts plans as things shift. Christine often helps people manage mood disorders, bipolar symptoms, and attention difficulties by breaking problems into small, manageable steps. She also supports people facing grief, addiction concerns, or reactions from past trauma.
Parenting comes up often in her practice, and she helps parents sort choices and responses that affect family life. Communication problems, codependency, and issues around commitment and intimacy are common topics she addresses. She uses concrete strategies to improve communication and reduce conflict.
Work can include skill-building, role practice, and looking at the stories people tell themselves. Based in Florida, Christine works with adults who want practical support and clear next steps. Sessions are offered in English.
She approaches each person with compassion and without judgment, aiming to make therapy a collaborative, useful process.

Approaches that translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting so people feel understood and can decide their goals. It helps with parenting stress, self-esteem, and life changes by centering the client's experience and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches concrete strategies to shift unhelpful patterns. It is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and mood regulation because it emphasizes practical exercises and homework. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) adds skills for managing intense emotions, tolerating distress, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Those skills can help with anger, relationship problems, and coping during big changes. Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, and may combine techniques over time as needs change. Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls approximate an in-person conversation and allow visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a short check-in or be easier when bandwidth is low. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief updates, journaling between sessions, or people who prefer writing. Together these options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and keep momentum between visits.Questions people ask about Christine
