More about Christel
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LMHC
I am licensed in Florida with 5 years of professional work experience.
I believe that therapy should be a safe space to explore, discuss and process thoughts and feelings with the goal of overcoming and managing the obstacles you may be facing in life. My approach is collaborative and I believe in working together to create change. I utilize different therapeutic modalities and tailor interventions based on each client’s individual needs, goals and progress. I specialize in working with trauma including but not limited to domestic violence, sexual assault and stalking and also serve clients with a wide range of needs such as; depression, anxiety disorders, PTSD, grief and loss, self-esteem and relationship issues. I am passionate about my profession, have an open-minded and non-judgmental approach and look forward to working with you and creating the change you are seeking. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space. Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
