About Christina
LMHC Christina Dawson has six years of clinical experience in Florida supporting people with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, and anger. She also focuses on communication problems, guilt, and shame. Her practice emphasizes evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a secular approach that respects each person's values.
Christina works in a straightforward, collaborative way. She helps people recognize patterns that keep them stuck and teaches practical coping strategies. Sessions typically involve clear goals, short-term skills, and space to process difficult memories or reactions.
For parents, Christina addresses the strains that come with caregiving and transition. She helps people break down parenting challenges into manageable steps and practice new ways of responding under stress. For people dealing with addiction, her work includes building relapse prevention routines and identifying triggers.
When trauma and abuse are part of the picture, she supports paced processing and emotional regulation skills rather than pushing for immediate disclosure. For anxiety and anger, sessions often focus on breathing, grounding, and behavioral experiments to test new responses.
Christina aims to be direct and practical in session. She and the client set collaborative goals and track progress over time. If you want to start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule an initial session.

How evidence-based approaches shape online work
Evidence-based therapeutic techniques focus on measurable skills and clear strategies. One common approach is skill-based cognitive work that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts, test them, and try new behaviors; this is useful for anxiety and stress. Another approach centers on relapse prevention and behavioral planning, which helps people with addictions recognize triggers and build step-by-step routines to reduce risk.Finding the right method is part of the process. Christina will work together with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and preferences. That includes checking how comfortable someone is with skill practice, pacing trauma work, or focusing on parenting strategies before committing to a specific plan.
Session formats are not detailed in the biography, so confirm the current session options before booking. In general, remote sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, avoid travel time, and maintain continuity when schedules change. They also allow shorter check-ins when needed and let people choose whether to use video or other approaches depending on what works best for them.
