About Christina
Christina Cannon is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Florida with five years of clinical experience. She works with adults who struggle with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and coping with life changes. Christina also focuses on codependency, attachment issues, body image, family of origin concerns, and problems connected to substance use and domestic violence.
She draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques and a practical, conversational style. Sessions tend to be direct and focused on what is happening now. Christina asks questions, listens closely, and helps people notice patterns in how they relate to others and themselves. She uses straightforward language rather than clinical jargon.
In session she helps people set manageable goals, practice clearer communication, and try small experiments to test new ways of responding. For someone who always puts others first, she will work on recognizing boundary patterns and clearer self-expression. Christina also addresses issues like guilt, shame, and isolation that often come with codependent behaviors.
Christina’s background includes time working with military populations alongside five years of civilian clinical practice. That experience informs how she talks about structure, routine, and handling high-stress roles. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and encourages practical tools that fit day-to-day life.
To begin, readers are asked to use the site’s matching questionnaire to schedule an initial session. The subscription-based sessions can be canceled at any time, and Christina provides services in English in Florida.
How sessions work
Approaches used in remote sessions and what they do
Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on present patterns and behavior change. One common approach helps people recognize how past attachment experiences shape current relationships; it sharpens awareness of triggers and teaches alternative ways to respond rather than react. Another frequent approach focuses on grounding and stabilization after trauma, offering practical exercises to manage strong emotions and reduce overwhelm.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Christina discusses your goals and preferences, then recommends methods to try. Clients and therapist adjust the plan over time based on what feels useful and what produces small, observable changes.
The biography does not specify session formats, so confirm current online options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten travel time, and offer quicker check-ins when needed. Phone check-ins can be simpler when a short update is wanted, and video sessions allow face-to-face conversation for practicing communication skills. Ask during the matching questionnaire which formats are available and which might best fit your schedule and goals.
