She brings 20 years of experience as an MA Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, and speaks plainly about practical steps clients can take.

Her approach focuses on helping clients notice patterns that cause upset and try small changes that make daily life easier. Sessions tend to include straightforward skills practice, thought reframing, and planning actions that match each person’s goals. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy methods to help people test unhelpful beliefs and build more effective habits.

Dr. Cross pays attention to how past losses and trauma shape current reactions. She works with clients on emotion management, communication, and rebuilding safety in relationships. When needed, she helps people sort out complicated feelings such as shame, guilt, or anger so they can move forward.

People describe her style as calm and direct, focused on what will help now. She aims to help clients develop tools they can use between sessions. Her work emphasizes steady progress over time and respect for each person’s pace.

Dr. Cross practices in Florida and brings two decades of clinical experience to her work. She uses clear language and concrete steps so clients can apply what they learn in everyday situations.

Using CBT online to address stress and relationships

Dr. Cross uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in a practical way, helping clients spot thoughts that fuel anxiety or low self-esteem and then test more balanced ideas. CBT is often used for worry, mood problems, and relationship communication challenges and focuses on doable exercises and skill practice.

She emphasizes collaboration when choosing an approach. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit your situation. Together you decide what feels most useful and adjust as needed during the work.

Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking, since formats are not listed here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce commuting time, and allow shorter check-ins when a full session isn't possible. It also makes it simpler to keep continuity of care through moves or schedule changes while still working on concrete skills and plans that transfer to daily life.
