“Christina is probably the best therapist I've ever had and I've been going to therapy for 28 years !! She's very down to earth and makes you comfortable with being yourself. She helps me make decisions in my life that I struggle with by talking things thru. She gives me things to work on between each session and to pay better attention to myself. I actually recommended her to a friend who agrees that she is an excellent therapist!”

Getting to know Christina Gaudiana

I am a licensed therapist in Florida with over 15 years of professional experience in both inpatient and outpatient settings. I am EMDR trained and work with children, adolescents, and adults. My therapeutic approach is integrative and draws from Gestalt, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and Reality-based theories. I utilize a range of evidence-based interventions, including client-centered therapy, motivational interviewing, cognitive restructuring, and mind–body connection techniques. I have extensive experience working with trauma, addiction, self-esteem and confidence issues, anxiety, anger management, ADD/ADHD, and depression. I chose this profession after recognizing how deeply our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are shaped by our self-concept. That understanding inspired my commitment to helping others heal, grow, and move forward with support and encouragement. My therapeutic “toolbox” is broad and adaptable, allowing me to meet you where you are and tailor treatment to your unique goals and needs. You do not have to navigate this journey alone—you have an ally in this process.

What should a new client know about working with you?

During our first session, we will begin to establish rapport. I ask questions to get to know you, your thoughts, your feelings, and history. We can talk about any apprehensions you have regarding the therapeutic process. As we continue to meet, you will see that we have created a safe, secure, and comfortable space for you to evolve. Every session will consist of time for you to process how you are feeling and any stresses or anxiety. You will feel supported and validated in this process. Most sessions will also have a psychoeducational or skill building component followed by interventions (things to practice) that help to create change in areas you have identified.

More information on payments and coverage

Payment is due after each session and will be charged with your card on file for any portion of patient responsibility. Receipts will be provided at the time of the charge. This typically takes place 2-4 weeks after the session, once your insurance has had a chance to process the claim. We try our best to verify eligibility, but it is ultimately your responsibility to check coverage and out-of-pocket costs for services. For out-of-network visits, you will be billed at the provider’s self-pay rate, and we can provide an invoice for you to submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement based on your plan’s benefits.

She knows what to say and she knows what she is talking about she is very intelligent and caring
Christina has been a great resource for helping my mental health and staying on track.
She is knowledgeable and caring at the same time. I really enjoy her style!
Christina is probably the best therapist I've ever had and I've been going to therapy for 28 years !! She's very down to earth and makes you comfortable with being yourself. She helps me make decisions in my life that I struggle with by talking things thru. She gives me things to work on between each session and to pay better attention to myself. I actually recommended her to a friend who agrees that she is an excellent therapist!
Honestly, I’ve tried other therapist before and felt that they were just blowing smoke and Christina not only listens, but talks to you like a real human being who isn’t broken. She doesn’t beat around the bush, but at the same time make sure that you realize that this is a process, that she’s there to support, and there’s no real pressure that everything you’re doing and feeling is for a reason and how to work through things. I would highly recommend her. I’m a difficult person with a lot of sarcasm and bluntness, and it doesn’t phase her one bit. She takes my sometimes strong attitude and stride, and always makes me feel safe and heard.
Best human on earth. Of all time.
Christina is a great therapist that uses mostly CBT in a very natural and effective way! I appreciate her insights and skills to listen deeply!
