About Christine

Christine (Chris) Angier is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, licensed in Florida with three years of experience listed for this profile. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, along with parenting, depression, addictions, trauma and grief. Chris also notes work around sleep, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes and ADHD, and she lists blended family issues among her additional focuses.

Chris takes a direct, practical approach in sessions. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and asks for honest feedback as therapy unfolds. Sessions aim to identify what needs to change and build concrete steps to start that change sooner rather than later.

Her background includes many years working with families on behavioral problems and family dynamics. That past work involved a range of issues such as trust and infidelity, parenting challenges, time management, and working with children who have Autism, ADHD, or ODD. She also has experience providing crisis counseling in a psychiatric hospital.

In practice she favors solution-focused work and combines that with client-centered methods and cognitive behavioral ideas. She helps people set small, achievable goals and checks progress frequently. Narrative therapy also informs how she helps people reframe difficult events and choices.

People seeking help with blended household realities - for example becoming a stepparent, merging routines, or handling co-parenting challenges - may find her practical orientation useful. She asks clients to be candid about what works so plans can be adjusted together and progress can move faster than it might otherwise.

Approaches used online and how they help

Client-centered therapy puts the client's goals first and encourages the person to guide what matters most. It helps when someone needs a base to talk through choices and decide next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and uses small exercises to shift unhelpful patterns; it is often useful for anxiety, mood, and sleep problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit best based on needs, goals, and personal preference. That collaborative process can include trying a technique for a few sessions and adjusting if something else would be a better fit.

The profile does not list specific session formats, so confirm the current online options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time so people can meet between work and family responsibilities. For some concerns, like stepfamily routines or co-parenting logistics, working online can let conversations happen from wherever the client usually manages daily life.
