About Christina
Christina Javete is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) in Florida with eight years of clinical experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, grief, self-esteem problems, addictions, trauma, relationship concerns, and anger. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
Christina uses practical, evidence-based methods to help people manage strong feelings and everyday struggles. She often draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy to help people notice thought patterns, practice new skills, and change behaviors that keep problems going. Mindfulness and motivational interviewing are also part of her approach when clients want to build motivation or calm intense reactions.
Her work includes helping veterans develop concrete coping strategies and teaching skills for emotional regulation. She focuses on clear, teachable tools such as grounding, thought records, distress tolerance techniques, and behavioral experiments. Sessions tend to emphasize skill practice and short-term strategies that people can use between meetings.
Christina frames goals with the person in front of her rather than promising a fixed outcome. She helps people set realistic steps for coping with anger, improving communication, or addressing mood and stress concerns. The tone is direct and practical, aimed at helping someone lower reactivity and regain steadier daily functioning.
To begin, clients follow an intake process that includes a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session. Christina uses a subscription-based payment model that can be canceled at any time and varies with location.
How sessions work
How CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness inform online sessions
CBT helps people identify and test unhelpful thoughts and then try small behavioral experiments. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and anger that comes from repetitive thinking patterns. DBT provides clear skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving communication when strong feelings arise.Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase awareness of triggers. Together these approaches give a blend of thinking tools, behavioral practice, and moment-to-moment regulation strategies that suit problems like anger, panic, or persistent low mood.
Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, current habits, and what has or has not worked before. From there she and the client decide which approaches to try and how to sequence skill work, experiments, and check-ins.
Details about session delivery should be confirmed before booking. The practical benefits of working online include easier fitting of sessions into a busy schedule, fewer travel interruptions, and the option for shorter check-ins when days are tight. These factors can make it simpler to practice skills consistently between meetings.
