Christianne Harris, LCSW

Christianne Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with 33 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people work through stress, anxiety, self-esteem struggles, and major life changes. Her practice emphasizes practical steps and clear guidance so clients know what to try between sessions.

Her approach blends direct coaching with warm support. She listens for patterns in relationships and behavior, then helps clients test different ways of responding. Sessions often include skills practice, homework, and gentle reflection to build confidence over time.

Christianne helps people manage depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and the everyday strain of caregiving or chronic illness. She also addresses issues like body image, eating and sleeping problems, and challenges tied to identity and sexuality, including LGBT concerns. Work on career stress, anger, and communication problems is part of her practice as well.

She uses several well-known approaches to guide treatment, including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These methods are applied in straightforward ways to meet each person’s needs rather than as labels.

Christianne practices in Florida and offers care in English. She supports adults navigating midlife changes and other transitions, helping them find clarity and steadier ground. People who want a mix of direct guidance and compassionate listening often find her style a good fit.

Therapeutic approaches and how they fit online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck. It focuses on values and small actions that move a life in a chosen direction, which can be useful for midlife reevaluation and coping with loss.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is about spotting unhelpful thinking and testing new behaviors. It offers clear steps and homework that translate well to online work, such as thought records and behavior experiments.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy teaches skills for managing intense emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and tolerating distress. Those tools can help with strong reactions to life changes or relationship conflict.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as needed.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because formats are not specified in the biography. Online care can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. It also lets people work with licensed professionals from different places, which can expand choices when searching for the right fit.
