About Christianne

Christianne Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with 33 years of clinical experience. She focuses on common and complex problems such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and family concerns, and anger. Christianne also works with issues like grief, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and career difficulties.

Her approach is practical and directive. She uses familiar therapy methods to help people build resilience and manage upsetting feelings. Sessions emphasize clear steps and coping strategies rather than abstract theory.

Christianne draws on a mix of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. She explains tools plainly and helps people practice them between sessions. That makes it easier to try new ways of responding when anger or stress arises.

She also addresses longer-term patterns such as attachment issues, codependency, control concerns, and body image. Christianne helps people notice how past experiences shape today’s reactions and then practice different responses. The work often combines talk, skills practice, and planning for real-life situations.

Christianne sees clients who want to reduce reactivity, repair relationship strain, or manage stress that interferes with daily life. She accepts international clients and conducts sessions in English. To begin, people complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How Christianne uses ACT, CBT and DBT online

Christianne commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions aligned with their values. ACT is often useful when frustration or resentment keeps someone stuck.

She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), which breaks down upsetting situations into thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. CBT gives concrete exercises to test and change reactions that fuel anger and anxiety. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) appears in her work as well for teaching emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and practical communication skills. DBT tools can help during heated moments or ongoing stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. She works collaboratively to pick methods that fit a person's goals and preferences. That means trying tools, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, cut travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that practicing skills between sessions is simpler when sessions can be scheduled around work or caregiving demands.
