About Edie
Edie Factor is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience in independent practice in Florida. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship problems, and struggles around intimacy and parenting. Her tone is warm and direct, offering practical guidance alongside emotional support.
Edie uses clear, goal-focused conversations to help people notice unhelpful patterns. She points out behaviors that keep stress and sadness going, then works with clients to try different responses.
How Edie works
She offers suggestions and direction when they are helpful, but decisions remain with the client. Her approach blends several therapeutic styles to match the person in front of her. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify thoughts and behaviors that feed anxiety and depression.
She uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy ideas to address closeness, communication, and attachment concerns. Psychodynamic concepts help uncover early patterns that affect current relationships. Solution-Focused Therapy supports quick, practical steps for immediate problems.
Edie also helps people dealing with grief, addiction, ADHD, career stress, and compassion fatigue. She can assist with issues such as abandonment, codependency, infertility stress, and end-of-life concerns. Conversations are straightforward and paced to each person's needs.
Sessions aim to move people out of stuck patterns and toward clearer choices. Edie invites clients to try new ways of coping, communicate differently, and rebuild trust in themselves. She supports clients through small steps and more challenging changes.

Online support options
How therapeutic approaches work online
Edie often uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her online work. CBT focuses on spotting and changing thoughts and behaviors that increase anxiety or depression, which helps with mood, stress, and coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on patterns of closeness and communication, useful for intimacy concerns, attachment issues, and repairing relationship wounds.Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Edie will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most helpful, then adjust methods as therapy progresses. She works collaboratively so clients have a say in which strategies to try and when to shift focus.
Online sessions include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video calls are helpful for face-to-face interaction and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when internet bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging support shorter check-ins, between-session coaching, or people who prefer typing. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and varied life circumstances.
