About Christina
Christina Macnamara is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Florida with 29 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, grief, depression, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, relationship issues, ADHD, and life changes.
She uses a straightforward, collaborative approach in sessions. Christina emphasizes clear goals and practical steps. Sessions often focus on breaking problems into manageable parts and identifying useful coping strategies.
Her background blends client-centered care with solution-focused work and cognitive behavioral techniques. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Motivational Interviewing when those fit a client's needs. That mix is meant to help people adjust thinking and behavior while staying connected to what matters to them.
In a typical meeting she will listen to what is most pressing, help clarify desired outcomes, and suggest small experiments or skills to try between sessions. Conversation can include exploring patterns, practicing new responses, and planning next steps. Christina frames therapy as a partnership where progress is measured by real-world changes.
People who come for help may be coping with loss, caregiving stress, chronic illness, blended family questions, adoption or attachment concerns, body image, or work and life transitions. She also works with those managing codependency, commitment worries, communication problems, and control issues.

Therapeutic approaches and working online
Christina uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward those values while accepting difficult feelings. That approach can be useful for anxiety, grief, and decisions about life changes.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to practice small behavior changes that reduce distress. CBT is often applied to anxiety, depression, and managing stress in daily life.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christina will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and preferences. That means trying strategies, reviewing what helps, and adjusting the plan together over time.
Confirm the current session options before booking to know which formats she is offering. Online sessions can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow quieter or shorter check-ins when needed, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals often use these conveniences to support consistent progress while balancing work, family, and health demands.
