About Alina
Alina Ghitea is a licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) based in Florida who uses emotionally-focused ideas alongside other practical methods. She helps people untangle stress, anxiety, sadness, and relationship or intimacy concerns. Her style is warm and direct, aimed at helping people feel steadier in daily life.
Alina draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people notice and name patterns in their emotional life and relationships. She also uses attachment-based and client-centered techniques to create a respectful, listening space.
Background and approach
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools are used when practical skills and coping strategies are needed. She has six years of clinical experience working with a wide range of concerns including grief, trauma and abuse, parenting challenges, mood disorders, and ADHD. She also focuses on family of origin issues, communication problems, codependency, and multicultural or immigration-related stresses.
This variety helps her tailor care to each person's situation. Sessions are offered in English and are delivered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. The therapist works with people navigating life changes, career shifts, compassion fatigue, or struggles with self-esteem and purpose.
Practical support is emphasized over jargon. Alina aims to help people build clearer emotional awareness, improve communication, and develop skills to manage strong feelings. To get started clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule sessions based on the therapist's availability.

Online support
Emotion-focused and practical care delivered online
Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and change unhelpful emotional patterns that keep them stuck. It focuses on accessing core feelings and using them to reshape how people relate to themselves and others, which can help with relationship and intimacy struggles.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early bonds influence current reactions and connections. This approach can clarify why certain triggers feel intense and guide steps toward steadier, more supported ways of relating.
Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes listening and acceptance so people can explore concerns at their own pace. This supportive stance pairs well with CBT or DBT skills when practical strategies are needed to manage anxiety, mood symptoms, or impulsive reactions.
Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, and will adapt methods over time based on progress and feedback.
Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, live chat helps for quicker check-ins, and messaging can support ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to attend sessions from work breaks, home, or on the go.
