Christine D'Avico, LMHC

Christine D'Avico is a Florida-licensed mental health professional with 21 years of experience in psychotherapy. She practices as an LMHC, which stands for Licensed Mental Health Counselor, and integrates a range of trauma-informed and evidence-based approaches to meet each person where they are. Christine frequently employs Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and has repeatedly observed its capacity to shift entrenched feelings and behaviors when trauma or distress underlies presenting concerns.

She works primarily with higher-functioning adults navigating transitions and complex stressors, offering focused support for anxiety, stress, relationship struggles, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and the many challenges that accompany life changes. Her clinical toolkit also includes Internal Family Systems (IFS), somatic therapy techniques, trauma-focused therapy, client-centered methods, and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), applied thoughtfully and tailored to individual needs.

Christine emphasizes a collaborative, individualized approach that blends practical coping strategies with deeper processing when appropriate. Her background includes work with a broad range of issues such as parenting and family dynamics, intimacy-related concerns, sleep difficulties, anger, career questions, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and aging-related matters. She is fluent in English and brings a steady, experienced perspective to helping people find clearer direction and greater emotional balance.
