About Christina

Dr. Christina Gonzalez is a bilingual Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) and Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida. She has two decades of clinical work and brings a warm, interactive style to sessions. Many people come to her with relationship struggles, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, and questions about intimacy or addiction.

Her approach mixes practical tools and thoughtful reflection. She draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based ideas, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), existential thinking, and mindfulness practices to match what a person needs. Sessions often focus on clearer communication, managing intense feelings, and creating small habits that add up.

Christina has worked in varied settings around the world and in community mental health, substance use treatment, and child welfare. That background informs how she notices cultural and situational factors, including immigration-related concerns. She also has experience with military and veteran contexts and work related to suicide prevention.

Her style is respectful and compassionate. She avoids labels and centers what each person wants to change. Therapies are tailored and collaborative, with concrete skills and reflective conversation.

Dr. Gonzalez offers help in both English and Spanish. If someone wants to begin, they are invited to take a first step by using the site’s intake flow to match and schedule a session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages people to clarify values and take small, meaningful steps toward them while learning to notice difficult thoughts without getting stuck. It can help with anxiety, relationship avoidance, and coping with major life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how early connections shape present behavior and feelings; it can be useful for intimacy issues and communication problems. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) breaks down unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns into manageable parts and teaches concrete skills for mood and stress management.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist collaborates with each person to see which methods fit their goals, needs, and style. Sessions may combine techniques so people can try tools and then decide what feels most helpful.

Confirm the available session options before booking, as formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into busy lives - for example, shorter check-ins during a work break, audio-only calls when bandwidth is low, or scheduling at times that reduce travel. Licensed professionals can still teach practical skills, guide communication practice, and support emotion regulation through remote sessions, helping therapy become a steady part of daily life without requiring a full-day commitment.
