About Edie
Edie Factor is a licensed clinical social worker with 15 years of experience in private practice in Florida. She works with people facing anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship struggles, and issues such as codependency and addiction. Her manner is warm and compassionate, and she speaks plainly while offering clear suggestions when those are needed.
Edie keeps sessions direct and practical. She helps clients notice repeating patterns that keep them stuck and then identifies small steps to try instead. She offers support while leaving decisions in the client’s control. Many people come to her feeling overwhelmed, isolated, or unsure how to change habits that harm their relationships or well-being.
Her background includes long experience with grief, parenting strain, anger, self-esteem problems, and life transitions. She also works with people dealing with attachment and abandonment concerns, intimacy-related issues, infertility stress, and end-of-life matters. Edie brings a steady presence when clients need to talk through painful memories or difficult choices.
Sessions blend tools and conversation. She uses practical techniques alongside deeper discussion to help people test new ways of thinking and acting. When a clear direction helps, she will offer suggestions and next steps rather than leaving everything open-ended.
Edie welcomes clients who want a therapist who listens with warmth but is not afraid to be direct. If someone needs help sorting emotions, changing unhealthy patterns, or rebuilding after loss, she aims to guide them toward manageable, realistic change.
How these approaches translate to online care
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people notice and name strong feelings and how those feelings shape relationships. In practice it guides people to express core emotions and try new ways of connecting with others, which can help with intimacy and attachment struggles.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. It teaches straightforward tools to test negative thoughts and build new habits, and it is useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals and preferences. Sessions often combine emotion-focused conversation with practical CBT-style steps when that fits the client's needs.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the available session formats before booking since the therapist's biography does not list specific options. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when helpful, and reduce travel time. Licensed professionals can adapt both EFT and CBT tools to remote sessions so clients can practice new skills between appointments.
