About me
Hi! My name is Dr. Krystal Bittar and I’m a clinical psychologist licensed in Florida with more than 10 years of experience. I have worked with patients who have a wide-range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, parenting problems and disruptive behavior disorders. I have helped patients of varying ages, including children, adolescents and young adults. I have also supported parents using an evidenced-based approach called Parent Child Interaction Therapy, or PCIT.
I completed my undergraduate degree at the University of Florida and my Master’s and Doctorate at Carlos Albizu University in Miami, Florida. I completed an APA-approved internship at Miami Children’s Hospital within the inpatient psychiatry unit. In 2010, I returned to University of Florida for a postdoctoral residency in the Clinical and Health Psychology Department providing individual and family therapy to children in a rural school district of North Central Florida. From 2012-2016, I worked in Miami providing clinical services in a community mental health setting.
Clinically, I specialize in the assessment and treatment of children ages two and a half to eight, who have a wide range of concerns, including disruptive behavior disorders, attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder and poor self-regulation skills. I primarily focus on assisting families with strategies to reduce disruptive behaviors in children. In addition, I work with children experiencing anxiety and depression using cognitive behavioral therapy interventions to reduce symptoms and introduce coping strategies.
