Edie Factor, LCSW

Edie Factor is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience in independent practice in Florida. She offers direct, compassionate psychotherapy for people dealing with anxiety, depression, relationship strain, and trauma. Her approach is warm and practical, and she guides clients toward the next right step while respecting the client's choices.

She focuses on helping people break free from negative patterns and unhealthy behaviors. That includes work around intimacy concerns, addiction, grief, parenting stress, ADHD, and issues related to attachment and abandonment. She also supports people facing career strain, compassion fatigue, bipolar mood challenges, and life transitions.

In sessions she blends practical techniques with deeper exploration. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy helps identify unhelpful thoughts and habits. Emotionally-Focused and psychodynamic ideas are used to look at underlying feelings and relationship patterns. Solution-Focused methods keep work grounded in clear, achievable goals.

She is direct when suggestions, advice, or direction will help move things forward. At the same time she aims to stay sensitive and supportive throughout the process. Clients can expect straightforward feedback, concrete steps to try between sessions, and collaboration on which tools feel most useful.

Edie works with common and complex concerns such as infidelity, communication problems, domestic violence histories, fertility and end-of-life stress, and feelings of emptiness or isolation. She encourages small, steady changes that add up to better emotional balance and healthier relationships.

Approaches that guide online work

Edie commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping skills. Emotionally-Focused Therapy looks at feelings and interaction patterns, making it useful for relationship concerns and intimacy-related struggles.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. She will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals, and comfort level. That collaborative decision happens over the first few sessions and can change as progress is made.

The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so please confirm which formats are offered before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. It also gives options when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs a session with lower bandwidth. Licensed professionals can adapt CBT and EFT techniques to remote sessions, using practical tools and goal-focused plans that translate well to an online setting.
