About Christine
Christine D'Avico is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with two decades of psychotherapy experience. She focuses on helping people who feel overwhelmed by stress and anxiety, and those coping with relationship concerns, grief, low self-esteem, and life changes. Her approach is straightforward and practical, aimed at easing daily strain and improving emotional balance.
Christine draws from several methods to match what each person needs. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and habits.
Background and approach
She also incorporates somatic techniques that pay attention to body sensations and how they connect to emotions. She has long used Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, often called EMDR, to help people move through intense memories and difficult feelings. Christine blends that with a client-centered stance, meaning sessions follow the person’s pace and goals.
She adapts tools rather than applying a fixed protocol. Clients can expect clear language and focused work in sessions. Christine aims to create a calm, steady space to address symptoms like insomnia, anger, or compassion fatigue and broader concerns such as career stress, parenting strain, or identity questions.
Progress is usually incremental and tied to practical steps people can take between sessions. Her practice is based in Florida and she offers services in English. With 21 years as an LMHC she brings experience but centers each conversation on what matters to the individual.
How therapeutic approaches translate to online care
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. Online sessions using this approach let the therapist respond to what matters most and shape sessions around personal goals and timing.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, teaches practical skills to shift thinking patterns and behaviors. In virtual sessions clients learn exercises, try them between meetings, and review results together to track what helps with anxiety or sleep problems.
EMDR is a method some people use to work through intense memories and upsetting reactions. In an online setting EMDR can include guided attention techniques and step-by-step processing while the therapist monitors pacing and comfort.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with the client about symptoms, history, and preferences, then recommend one or a combination of methods. Decisions are made together and can change as progress unfolds.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people use visual cues during deeper work, phone sessions can fit into a short break or use less bandwidth, live chat is useful for quick check-ins, and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between appointments. These options help make therapy fit into busy schedules and varied routines.
