I am a licensed clinical psychologist licensed in Florida with over 10 years of experience working as a clinician. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including: depression, anxiety, parenting problems and disruptive behavior disorders. I have helped clients of varying ages; including children, adolescents and young adults. I have also supported parents using an evidenced based approach called Parent Child Interaction Therapy, also referred to as PCIT. This type of treatment addresses the parent-child dyad as well as implementing consistent and predictable discipline strategies.
My experience is varied and across settings. I have provided individual psychotherapy in outpatient clinics, inpatient psychiatric facilities, school settings and community mental health agencies. I have experience conducting psychological evaluations to assist with diagnostic clarification and treatment planning. I am familiar with making appropriate recommendations depending on the issues the individual is presenting with.
My therapy style is empathetic and supportive. I believe that the client is in charge of their goals and the clinician helps guide and support the process through a respectful and compassionate journey. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic and solution focused psychotherapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. I also value feedback and enjoy working collaboratively.
It takes courage to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support you!
I look forward to working with you!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Dr. Krystal Bittar. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
As someone who’s had such a hard time to open up Dr. Bittar has really helped me open up. After only 2 sessions I feel like this is one of the best decisions in my life thanks to her understanding.
