About Christina
Christina Javete is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) practicing in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, low self-esteem, and anger. Christina also supports clients facing addiction challenges and life changes that feel overwhelming.
She works with veterans and focuses on teaching practical skills that people can use between sessions. Christina uses straightforward, evidence-based methods to address problems rather than relying on jargon. Sessions tend to center on clear goals and step-by-step strategies clients can try in daily life.
Her approach draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice patterns, test new behaviors, and manage strong emotions. She also brings mindfulness techniques to slow down reactivity and motivational interviewing to strengthen commitment to change. These tools are offered as part of a collaborative plan agreed with each client.
Christina usually frames therapy as skill building. She talks through communication habits, coping tools for panic or mood difficulties, and ways to rebuild confidence after loss. The focus is practical - learning skills, practicing them, and tracking progress.
People who are worn down by repeated anger, work stress, or relationship strain may find the pace and structure useful. She encourages straightforward conversation about goals and what will help most between sessions. If a client has questions about how a method will be used, Christina discusses options and next steps during the first meetings.
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Christina commonly uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new actions to reduce distress, which helps with anxiety, depression, and problems like panic attacks. DBT teaches concrete skills for managing strong emotions, improving distress tolerance, and building better emotion regulation in heated moments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals and preferences and then try methods that fit the client's needs. That collaborative process can include adjusting techniques as progress is tracked over several sessions.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. In general, online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Christina aims to adapt session length and skills practice to a client's schedule so therapeutic work can fit into everyday life.
