About Christine
Christine Berberian is a California licensed marriage and family therapist (LMFT) with 14 years of professional experience. She works with adults who are struggling with anger, stress, anxiety, relationship and family tensions, and life changes. Christine focuses on practical conversation and steady guidance rather than quick fixes.
She helps people address problems related to addictions, grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy challenges. She also supports concerns around eating, self-esteem, career struggles, bipolar disorder, depression, and ADHD. Her work includes areas such as abandonment, attachment issues, communication problems, and control or impulsivity struggles.
Christine adapts sessions to the person in front of her. That means shaping dialogue and a treatment plan to fit what a person wants to work on. She puts straightforward tools and coping strategies into the conversation so people can try them between sessions.
Her approach includes attention to caregiver stress, chronic illness and pain, money and financial worries, and isolation or loneliness. She also addresses parenting stress, divorce and separation, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and midlife questions about purpose.
Clients can expect a collaborative, practical process that focuses on concrete steps for change. Christine emphasizes respectful, sensitive interaction while helping people build skills to manage strong feelings and improve everyday relationships.
How evidence-based methods translate to online sessions
Christine works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical skills and behavior change. One common approach uses problem-focused strategies to identify triggers, practice new responses, and build routines that reduce reactivity. This helps with anger that shows up at work, home, or in close relationships.Another approach emphasizes understanding attachment and communication patterns. That work looks at how past relationships affect current reactions, and teaches clearer ways of asking for needs and setting boundaries. It can be useful for intimacy issues, repeated conflict, or ongoing resentment.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to test methods, track what helps, and adjust the plan based on goals and preferences. This is a joint process rather than a preset course of action.
If you are considering online sessions, confirm the exact session formats before booking since the biography does not list specific options. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a workday, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. Others prefer a longer scheduled block for in-depth conversation. Discussing scheduling and format choices in the first meeting helps match the practicalities to your life.
