Christine Holden, LPC, LMHC

Christine Holden is a Licensed Professional Counselor and Licensed Mental Health Counselor with 22 years of experience. She focuses on helping people who are feeling stressed, anxious, overwhelmed by trauma or abuse, or struggling with mood and self-worth. She aims to offer steady support and practical help as people take steps toward change.

She works from the belief that each person knows their own story best. She looks for strengths clients already have and uses those strengths to tackle hard problems. Sessions focus on realistic goals, clear steps, and encouragement so progress feels doable.

Her background includes many years of practice in Florida and Mississippi, across a range of concerns from relationship and family strain to grief, parenting questions, and career stress. She also has experience with mood disorders, ADHD, and challenges that come with caregiving or aging.

Therapy conversations are straightforward and practical. Christine helps clients manage anger, boost self-esteem, and find better ways to cope with life changes. She also supports people working through complex experiences like trauma, adoption and foster care issues, and the emotional fallout from disasters.

If someone prefers an approach that focuses on skills and step-by-step progress, she tailors sessions to fit goals and pace. Her work emphasizes collaboration, pacing that feels comfortable, and using real-life strengths to make lasting shifts.

Therapeutic techniques and online care that fit your life

Many clients benefit from approaches that teach practical skills and create steady steps toward change. One common evidence-based method focuses on building coping skills for stress and anxiety by breaking problems into manageable tasks and practicing new behaviors. This helps with everyday overwhelm, anger, and mood regulation. Another helpful approach centers on processing trauma in a paced, supportive way that aims to reduce overwhelming reactions and improve day-to-day functioning.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christine will work with each person to figure out which techniques match their needs, goals, and preferred pace. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as progress is made.

Confirm the therapist's current session formats before booking, as specific online options are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when a quick status update is helpful. It also gives people the option to meet from different locations when schedules require flexibility. Licensed professionals can adapt exercises and homework to work well in virtual sessions, keeping the focus on practical steps and measurable progress.
