Christina Laborde

Christina Laborde is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Florida with 10 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. Christina also addresses attachment issues, communication problems, forgiveness, guilt and shame, social anxiety and phobia, mood disorders, self-love, and life purpose.

She has worked with a range of people in different settings. Christina uses direct conversations to identify what feels stuck and what gets in the way of change. Sessions tend to focus on practical steps, clearer communication, and manageable coping strategies for day-to-day life.

Christina adapts her approach to each person’s concerns. She listens for patterns such as how past wounds affect current relationships and mood. From there she helps people try new ways of responding to stress, cravings, or anxious thoughts.

Her work often covers relationships and self-direction. For someone questioning what matters next, Christina will explore values, barriers, and small experiments to test new directions. She balances realistic pacing with focused goals so progress can be seen between sessions.

People who meet with Christina should expect straightforward talk about problems, consistent follow-up on goals, and practical tools to try between appointments. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

Evidence-based approaches and remote sessions

Christina uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to work with stress, anxiety, trauma responses, and addictive behaviors. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practicing alternative responses; this helps reduce anxiety and improve mood by changing immediate reactions. Another approach centers on attachment and relationship patterns, looking at how early experiences influence current communication and trust, which can aid in improving interpersonal interactions and self-understanding.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as progress and new information emerge.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example a shorter check-in during a break or avoiding travel time. It can also let someone continue consistent contact while juggling school, work, or caregiving responsibilities. Therapists and licensed professionals often use remote sessions to maintain regular momentum and to try practical behavioral experiments between meetings.
