About Christine

Christine (Chris) Angier is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with three years of experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, parenting challenges, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, sleep problems, anger, self-esteem, life changes, and ADHD. Chris also notes work around adoption and foster care, attachment and blended family issues, and difficulties like codependency and communication problems.

Chris uses a pragmatic, down-to-earth style. She treats clients as the experts in their own lives and works alongside them to shape change. Sessions emphasize clear goals and steps to make progress rather than long, unfocused conversation. She asks for honest feedback so the work can be adjusted as needed.

Her approach draws on client-centered techniques, cognitive behavioral ideas, narrative listening, and solution-focused methods. That mix lets her pull in concrete skills, reframe stories people tell about themselves, and set short-term plans for change. These methods are used to address issues such as parenting strain, trust and infidelity concerns, anger, impulsivity, and coping after loss or trauma.

Before moving into her current work she spent time doing crisis counseling in a psychiatric hospital and supporting families involved with child welfare investigations. Those experiences shaped her ability to work with practical, high-pressure situations and complex family dynamics.

Chris offers sessions in English and accepts international clients. Prospective clients should confirm current session formats before booking and follow the listed steps to begin.

How sessions work

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Client-centered therapy emphasizes listening to the person's priorities and building sessions around what they say works for them. It helps when someone needs validation and wants to shape goals in their own words.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and impulsivity because it gives straightforward skills to practice between sessions.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences, and will adjust the plan based on feedback and progress.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not listed in the biography. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Discuss scheduling and the practical format options during the matching and first session to pick what best fits day-to-day life.
