About Christine
Christine Williams-Kelly is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida. She has 17 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, ADHD, and life transitions. Her work emphasizes practical steps and steady support for people feeling overwhelmed or stuck.
She focuses on listening first and learning what matters to each person. Sessions often start with what the client wants to change and small, doable goals. Christine helps people build self-esteem, improve communication, and find ways to cope with workplace and relationship strain.
Background and approach
Her style blends clear problem-solving with attention to feelings. She uses methods from client-centered therapy to keep the conversation grounded in the client's experience. She also draws on cognitive behavioral tools to address unhelpful thoughts and patterns.
Mindfulness and skills from dialectical behavior therapy are used to teach emotion regulation and stress reduction. Emotionally-focused ideas help when intimacy or attachment issues come up. These approaches are adapted to each person's needs rather than applied in the same way for everyone.
Christine pays attention to cultural background and identity in the room. She often supports people through grief, trauma, caregiving stress, and career changes. People looking for steady, collaborative support to make concrete changes may find her approach a good match.
Approach and online options that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on the person's perspective and pace, giving space for the client to lead while the therapist reflects and clarifies what matters most. It helps when someone needs understanding and a nonjudgmental companion to sort through feelings and values.Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) targets the thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going. It teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, ADHD-related challenges, and unhelpful routines through small experiments and clear steps.
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) contributes tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and more effective communication, which can be useful for intense emotions and relationship strain.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose or combine methods based on needs, goals, and personal preferences. That means therapy can shift over time as goals change.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video is useful for fuller conversation and visual cues, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or live chat can serve quick check-ins or flexible support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or other commitments.
