Christen Thompson

Her style is direct and warm, and she aims to make therapy feel doable for people in stressful lives. She began her work in behavioral health in 2004 and has nearly a decade of formal licensed practice experience.

Early roles included hands-on work in addiction settings and clinical program development for first responders. Those positions shaped her skill at running programs and supporting people through intense life challenges.

Christen uses approaches that include the Gottman Method, Attachment-Based work, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, client-centered listening, and cognitive behavioral techniques. In sessions she helps people notice patterns, try small behavioral changes, and practice new ways of relating to themselves and others.

Conversations are grounded in daily life and focused on what a person can do between appointments. Her specialty areas include addictions, trauma and abuse, mood disorders, ADHD, anxiety, grief, and relationship and intimacy concerns.

She also supports people dealing with caregiving stress, chronic illness, body-image struggles, and career strain. Christen combines lived experience with clinical perspective to inform her practice.

Christen works with individuals from Florida and beyond, offering several session formats to fit different schedules. She encourages realistic goals and stepwise progress to help people move toward more stable, meaningful days.
