About Dr. Christi Cabrera, PH.D., ABPP
Dr. Christi Cabrera is a licensed, board-certified clinical psychologist who specializes in helping high-achieving individuals overcome anxiety so they can feel more confident, present, and engaged in their lives. She provides compassionate, evidence-based psychotherapy for individuals who may look successful on the outside but are struggling with anxiety, self-doubt, perfectionism, or feeling overwhelmed on the inside.
Dr. Cabrera believes that therapy should be more than simply talking about problems, it should help you develop practical skills and create meaningful, lasting change. She uses evidence-based approaches, including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), exposure-based therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), to help clients understand the patterns that keep anxiety going and learn how to respond to life’s challenges differently.
Her approach is collaborative, practical, and empowering. Rather than doing the work for her clients, Dr. Cabrera helps them develop the skills and confidence to become their own best therapists. She particularly enjoys working with individuals who are ready to move beyond simply managing anxiety and want to live with greater freedom, confidence, and intention.
Background & Experience
Dr. Cabrera is a licensed psychologist in Florida, Georgia and North Carolina and has authority to provide psychotherapy services in over 40+ states through PSYPACT. She is also a board-certified psychologist in Behavioral & Cognitive Psychology through the American Board of Professional Psychology (ABPP).
With more than 15 years of clinical experience, Dr. Cabrera has worked with adults experiencing anxiety disorders, depression, and related concerns. Her clinical work emphasizes evidence-based treatments, particularly Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and exposure-based interventions.
Dr. Cabrera has specialized experience treating anxiety disorders, including panic disorder, specific phobias, social anxiety, and generalized anxiety. She has a particular interest in helping clients understand the cycle of anxiety and use exposure therapy to gradually face situations they have been avoiding so that anxiety no longer dictates their choices.
Her clinical and research interests also include the intersection of anxiety, diversity, and culturally responsive mental health care. She is committed to providing therapy that recognizes the individual, cultural, professional, and personal contexts that shape each individual’s experience.
