About Christine

Christine Berberian is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) who brings 14 years of clinical experience to her practice. She works with people navigating stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship and family conflicts, grief, trauma, mood concerns such as depression and bipolar, and ADHD among other life challenges.

Background and approach

Christine emphasizes a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate stance, shaping treatment to each client's individual needs and goals. Her approach centers on collaborative dialogue and personalized planning so that therapy fits the person rather than applying a one-size-fits-all method.

She supports clients through transitions, parenting struggles, intimacy and communication problems, coping with chronic illness or caregiving strain, and issues around self-esteem, impulse control, and life purpose. Christine encourages prospective clients to view the decision to seek help as a courageous first step and offers steady guidance for those ready to make meaningful changes.

Evidence-based approaches and flexible online care

Christine draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients address emotional and behavioral difficulties. One approach focuses on teaching practical skills for managing anxiety and stress, helping clients build coping strategies and reduce reactivity in daily life. Another approach centers on addressing relationship and attachment patterns, exploring how communication habits and past experiences shape current interactions and emotional responses.

Determining the best therapeutic approach is part of the collaborative process; the therapist partners with each client to identify goals, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust the plan over time based on what is most helpful. This cooperative stance helps ensure treatment aligns with personal preferences and evolving needs.

Online sessions are offered through video calls, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to increase flexibility and make services more accessible for people with busy schedules or mobility constraints. These options allow clients to maintain continuity of care, fit therapy into their routines, and connect with a licensed professional from different locations within California.
