About Christine

Christine (Chris) Angier is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with three years of experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, parenting and family concerns, addictions, trauma, grief, sleep difficulties, anger, self-esteem, and ADHD. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.

Chris describes a direct, down-to-earth approach that focuses on practical changes. She favors solution-focused work that looks for the most important areas to shift and makes step-by-step plans to begin change soon after starting therapy. Clients set goals and identify what works best for them, and she asks for honest feedback to shape the process.

Her background includes a range of settings that informed how she responds to crisis and complex family situations. That experience contributes to skills in addressing communication problems, attachment issues, blended family concerns, adoption and foster care matters, and other relational stresses. She also has worked with issues such as codependency, infidelity, isolation, and impulsivity.

In sessions Chris uses client-centered listening alongside Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Narrative Therapy tools when helpful. She applies solution-focused techniques to create short-term plans and small experiments people can try between meetings. The work emphasizes practical steps and clearer thinking about patterns that keep problems going.

People who prefer straightforward guidance and concrete plans may find this style a good fit. To start, follow the online matching and scheduling steps linked on the profile to set up a first appointment.

How therapy approaches are used in online sessions

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and treating the person as the expert on their own life. The therapist reflects what is said, asks clarifying questions, and follows the client’s priorities to shape each session. This approach helps when someone needs a calm, non-directive conversation to sort out feelings and choices.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact. Sessions identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical experiments to test new ways of thinking and acting. CBT is often used for anxiety, stress, sleep problems, and low mood because it breaks problems into manageable steps.

Narrative Therapy helps people name the stories that shape their experience and consider alternative ways of describing their struggles. It can be useful for issues like identity, grief, relationship patterns, and feelings of isolation.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and comfort level, and adjust the plan as progress is made.
