About Christine
Christine Williams-Kelly is a licensed mental health counselor practicing in Florida with 17 years of experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anger, anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Christine aims to make therapy straightforward and practical for people who feel stuck or overwhelmed.
She listens first and then helps clients set clear, realistic goals. Sessions often focus on improving communication, building self-esteem, and finding better ways to handle strong emotions.
Background and approach
Christine also supports people coping with grief, addiction concerns, ADHD, and career stress. Her work pays attention to culture and identity. She uses that context to help people understand how past experiences shape present relationships and feelings.
This includes attention to issues like adoption and foster care, family of origin problems, and caregiver stress. Christine blends several approaches to fit the person in front of her. She uses client-centered techniques to build trust, cognitive behavioral tools to change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and elements of mindfulness and emotion-focused work to increase emotional awareness.
Dialectical behavior therapy skills are also used when people need tools for managing intense emotions. Therapy with Christine is collaborative. She helps people explore choices and practice new habits between sessions.
People typically leave with concrete coping skills, clearer priorities, and steps they can try in daily life.

Approaches and online care that fit your life
Client-centered therapy focuses on understanding each person's perspective and building a strong working relationship. It helps people feel heard and supported while they decide what changes matter most to them.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors interact. It teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful habits. Dialectical behavior therapy, DBT, adds concrete skills for handling intense emotions and improving emotional regulation when stress feels overwhelming.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christine works together with each person to choose methods that match their goals and preferences. She may combine client-centered listening with CBT exercises, DBT skills, or mindfulness practices depending on what the person needs.
Online therapy offers multiple ways to connect. Video calls let you have a face-to-face conversation when a longer session is needed. Phone sessions work well when video isn't possible or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or when typing out thoughts feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy schedule and to continue work between sessions.
