About Christina
Christina Javete is a licensed mental health counselor (LMHC) based in Florida. She brings eight years of clinical experience to sessions and focuses on practical skills people can use right away. Her work commonly addresses anger, stress, anxiety, depression, grief, and struggles with self-esteem.
She uses straightforward, evidence-based methods and builds plans that match each person’s situation. Christina often teaches skills for managing intense emotions and for steadying mood day to day.
Background and approach
She also supports people coping with life changes and those dealing with addiction and trauma-related concerns. Christina has experience working with veterans and applies that background when it fits a person’s needs. She aims to be respectful and attentive, and she centers conversations on what matters most to the individual in front of her.
Sessions are conversational and focused on real-life strategies. Her approaches include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing to encourage change and increase coping skills. Christina explains ideas plainly and helps people practice techniques between sessions so progress carries into daily life.

How Christina’s Methods Work Online
Christina uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy in ways that fit online work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to change feelings and reactions. That approach translates easily to video or phone sessions and to short written exercises between meetings. DBT teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and clearer communication, which can be taught in session and practiced with homework or messaging support.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina will talk with each person about goals, symptoms, and what feels manageable. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust plans as progress is made or priorities change. This keeps the work flexible and focused on what the person needs now.
Online sessions offer practical benefits for many people. Video calls let the therapist and client work face to face when schedules line up. Phone sessions can be easier when video isn’t possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text-based messaging can be used for brief check-ins, skill coaching, or when a shorter interaction fits around a work break. These options help therapy fit into a busy life while still using CBT, DBT, and mindfulness skills effectively.
