About Christina

LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) in Florida with 8 years of clinical experience, Christina Javete focuses on stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and related concerns. She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Mindfulness, and Motivational Interviewing to help people regain footing during hard periods.

Christina helps people manage symptoms like panic, mood shifts, and low self-esteem. She also addresses relationship strain, communication problems, isolation, and life purpose questions. Veterans and people coping with trauma and postpartum challenges are included among her experience areas.

Her sessions emphasize practical skills and clear steps. Christina teaches strategies from CBT and DBT to change unhelpful habits and to stabilize strong emotions. Mindfulness practices are used to increase present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity.

Motivational Interviewing is applied when people are working through change or substance-related concerns. Christina focuses on building motivation in small, achievable ways rather than pushing rapid change. Sessions tend to be action-oriented, with homework and skill practice when useful.

In conversations she aims to listen carefully and adapt the plan to what each person needs. People can expect straightforward explanations of methods, specific tools to try between sessions, and regular checks on progress. To begin, clients follow the site's matching and scheduling steps and choose a first session time.

Approaches used in remote sessions and what they do

Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in her work. CBT breaks problems into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and focuses on testing and changing unhelpful thinking patterns. It can help with anxiety, depression, panic, and mood regulation. DBT emphasizes emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills to reduce reactivity and improve coping in intense moments.

She also incorporates mindfulness practices to help people notice thoughts and sensations without acting on them, which supports anxiety and anger management. Choosing which methods to prioritize is a collaborative process. The therapist will review needs, goals, and preferences and then try approaches that fit the person’s situation.

The biography does not specify which session formats are offered, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins or weekly skill practice between obligations. Licensed professionals often adapt exercises and homework to work well across different session setups, and this therapist will help match the approach to practical life constraints.
