Cristen Coker, LMHC

I’m a Licensed Mental Health Counselor based in Florida and the founder of Better Day Therapy. For more than twenty years, I’ve worked with individuals facing anxiety, trauma, OCD, ADHD, and depression. My approach blends evidence-based practices such as EMDR, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Solution-Focused Therapy with a strong focus on building a safe, trusting therapeutic relationship.

Outside of private practice, I’ve supervised counseling interns, written guided journals and workbooks on topics like ADHD and OCD, and created resources to make mental health support more approachable. I enjoy translating clinical knowledge into practical tools that people can use every day.

My goal, whether in therapy or writing, is the same: to help people move from feeling overwhelmed or stuck to finding clarity, strength, and direction.
