Prof. Florence Chichester

Prof. Florence Chichester is a licensed mental health counselor with 15 years of experience in New York. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strains, and life transitions. She also supports those dealing with grief, addiction, trauma, self-esteem struggles, and challenges linked to ADHD and caregiving stress.

Her style is straightforward and person-centered. Sessions focus on clear goals, better communication, and practical steps people can try between meetings. She draws on a mix of approaches to match each person’s needs rather than relying on a single method.

Florence often uses Attachment-Based and Emotionally-Focused ideas to help people understand patterns in close relationships. She combines those with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy techniques when clients want tools to shift thoughts and behaviors. This blend aims to make emotional patterns easier to spot and change.

She pays attention to cultural background and life stage when planning work with someone. That can include support around parenting stress, aging concerns, or challenges tied to adoption and foster care histories. The focus stays on what the individual wants to change and how to get there.

People who reach out will complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to the therapist’s availability. Florence uses a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, with pricing that varies by location and scheduling choices.

How attachment, emotion work, and CBT translate online

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early patterns affect current relationships. It helps people notice repeated ways of reacting and learn new approaches to connection and trust. Emotionally-Focused Therapy focuses on naming and moving through strong feelings in relationships. It helps people and individuals identify emotional needs and ask for what they need more clearly. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy gives concrete tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your goals, try different techniques, and recommend what seems to fit best. Clients are involved in deciding which ideas to use and in tracking progress over time.

Confirm current online session options before booking since formats are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life - it can reduce travel time, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and make it simpler to schedule sessions around work or caregiving. Many people find the same therapeutic gains with remote sessions when they match the approach to their needs and circumstances.
