Bio
I’m Dr. Christina Berdebes, a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and relationship specialist dedicated to helping individuals, couples, adolescents, and families enhance their communication skills, build healthier connections, and foster more fulfilling relationships. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in over 15 years of clinical experience.
I received my Ph.D. and M.A. in Marriage and Family Therapy from NOVA Southeastern University and hold active LMFT licenses in Florida, New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. I am trained in multiple evidence-based models—including Gottman Levels 1–3—and integrate systemic, relational, and mindfulness-based practices into every session.
My background spans private practice, higher education, and nearly a decade as a lead school counselor. I’ve supported hundreds of clients through relationship challenges, anxiety, life transitions, parenting concerns, and communication breakdowns. I also teach at the graduate level and enjoy mentoring future therapists.
Whether you’re navigating a difficult season, healing after a rupture, or working to strengthen the relationships that matter most, I offer a space where you can feel understood, supported, and empowered to create meaningful change.
