About Christine
Christine Williams-Kelly is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with 17 years of clinical experience. She helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or family concerns. Her work also addresses parenting, ADHD, addictions, grief, and issues that arise in blended family situations.
She prefers straightforward, practical conversations. Sessions focus on improving communication, managing emotions, and building routines that fit everyday life. She uses tools from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and mindfulness to help people make small, steady changes.
Her background includes work with cultural and identity questions, women’s concerns, and young adult transitions. Christine pays attention to how past family patterns shape current reactions and relationships. That helps when someone struggles with abandonment, family of origin issues, or co-morbid conditions.
In practice she aims to help clients reduce stress reactions, strengthen coping skills, and set realistic goals for relationships and work. Typical topics include communication problems, caregiver stress, and intimacy-related concerns. She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma, and anger in clear, practical ways.
Clients can expect collaborative planning at the start of therapy. Christine will outline simple strategies and homework options when appropriate. She recommends checking session formats and logistics before booking a first meeting.
How her approaches translate to online work
Client-Centered Therapy helps people speak about what matters to them while the therapist follows their lead. It supports building trust and clearer self-expression, which can help with relationship and family concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down patterns of thought and behavior into small steps and practical exercises. It is useful for anxiety, low mood, and managing reactivity. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) focuses on emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness; it can be helpful for intense emotions and relationship conflicts.Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Christine will collaborate with each person to decide which methods make sense based on their goals, preferences, and day-to-day life. That means adjusting tools and homework so they fit the client rather than imposing a single model.
Confirm the specific session formats before booking, as options are not listed here. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. They also let people use video, or other supported formats if available, to practice communication skills in real situations. Ask about formats and any practical needs when you set up the first appointment.
