About Christine

Christine Finch-Huskey is a Florida-licensed mental health counselor who focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, trauma, depression, and related concerns. She brings 11 years of professional experience to her work and emphasizes respectful, sensitive, and compassionate care while adapting treatment to each person's situation.

Background and approach

Christine frames the first contact as an important step and acknowledges the courage it takes to begin therapy. Her practice centers on collaborative planning that reflects a client's goals and circumstances.

Christine uses evidence-informed approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and solution-focused techniques, tailoring conversations and strategies to what will be most useful for the individual. She also draws on motivational interviewing and trauma-focused methods when they fit the client’s needs.

Practicing in Florida as an LMHC, Christine supports people dealing with a wide range of issues including relationship difficulties, addictions, grief, parenting challenges, sleep and eating concerns, anger, career stress, ADHD, and coping with major life changes. She aims to help clients build practical skills and clearer pathways forward while honoring their unique histories and preferences.

Practical approaches and flexible online care

Christine uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people identify patterns of thought and behavior that contribute to stress, anxiety, depression, and other difficulties, then practice concrete strategies to change those patterns. She also draws on client-centered therapy, which prioritizes empathic listening, validation, and collaboration so clients feel heard while exploring goals and choices. When motivation for change is a challenge, motivational interviewing techniques help people clarify their values and tap into their own reasons for moving forward.

Choosing the right method is a joint process. Christine works with each client to decide which approaches fit their needs, goals, and preferences, adjusting strategies over time so the work remains relevant and manageable. That collaborative stance helps shape a treatment plan that reflects what the client wants to accomplish.

Online formats available include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which offer flexibility for different schedules and comfort levels. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care while integrating therapeutic work into everyday life, whether someone prefers real-time conversation or shorter, message-based check-ins.
