Edie Factor

Edie Factor is a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with 15 years of experience in private practice in Florida. She meets people where they are and offers a direct but compassionate style. She listens, points out patterns that get in the way, and suggests practical next steps when those are helpful.

Edie works with adults who face anxiety, depression, stress, relationship concerns, and trauma. She also addresses challenges like grief, addiction, parenting strain, issues around intimacy, and coping with life changes. Her approachaims to reduce stuck patterns and unhealthy behaviors that limit daily life.

In sessions she blends different methods to match each person’s needs. Edie uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. She also draws on emotionally-focused ideas to look at how feelings shape relationships, and psychodynamic approaches to trace how past experiences affect present choices.

Her style is warm and sensitive, yet straightforward when guidance or direction is needed. She offers coaching-style suggestions alongside therapeutic work, and supports clients as they try new ways of coping. The goal is clearer choices and steps that feel doable in real life.

Clients who come for help with attachment concerns, abandonment, codependency, infertility stress, or end-of-life issues will find focused attention on those topics. Edie encourages small experiments between sessions and regular check-ins to track progress.

How her approaches translate to online sessions

Edie uses cognitive behavioral and emotionally-focused approaches that fit well with conversation-based work. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy concentrates on the feelings that shape relationship patterns and helps people communicate needs more clearly.

Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try methods that match those priorities. If something doesn’t fit, adjustments are made together as therapy progresses.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current online and in-person options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, allow for shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Edie aims to help people test practical changes between meetings so progress can be noticed in everyday life.
