About Edie
Edie Factor is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience providing psychotherapy in Florida. She meets people where they are and offers straightforward, practical guidance alongside a warm and compassionate presence. Sessions focus on clear steps clients can take to reduce distress and regain control of daily life.
Edie helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, and relationship struggles. She also supports people facing addiction, parenting strain, intimacy concerns, career stress, bipolar mood challenges, and compassion fatigue.
Background and approach
She accepts work related to ADHD, self-esteem, anger, and major life transitions. Her approach mixes talk and action. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot unhelpful thoughts and change them.
She draws on emotionally-focused ideas to clarify relationship patterns and attachment wounds. She also uses psychodynamic thinking to look at recurring patterns that started earlier in life, and solution-focused steps to build immediate, practical change. In sessions Edie is direct when guidance is needed and gentle when people need support.
She offers suggestions, exercises, and simple strategies clients can try between visits. The goal is to break negative cycles and create healthier choices that fit each person’s life. Edie aims to help each person take manageable first steps toward feeling better.
She works collaboratively, helping clients set realistic goals and track progress over time.
Therapeutic approaches and online care that fit your life
Edie uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and try small behavior changes that reduce stress and low mood. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.She also draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to look at how attachment and emotional patterns shape relationships and intimacy. That work helps people improve communication, repair trust, and feel more connected to others.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk with each person about needs, goals, and preferences, then suggest a path to try. That plan can change over time based on what helps most in real life.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video lets people use visual cues for relationship work and in-depth conversation. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be easier during a busy day. Live chat or text messaging can suit quick check-ins, brief coaching, or moments when writing feels easier than speaking. These options allow people to fit therapy into work, family, or health routines without long commutes.
