Therapist

Hi my name is Cristina, my pro nouns are she/her. I went to two private institutions and graduated with my masters of science in Clinical Psychology. While In grad school I had the privilege of working with children in inpatient pediatric mental health for two years at CHOC Children's Hospital of Orange County. Shortly after I began working in residential addiction treatment with adults at AKUA in Newport Beach for another two years. While at AKUA I graduated from grad school and left to focus my attention in private practice where I currently center LGBTQ+ and POC clients and allies.

I believe that our creative and determined psyche allows us to “make it through” whatever life throws our way. We develop ideals, patterns, behaviors, and ways of thinking about the world, ourselves, and others. These things that at one point were meant to be protective and preserve us can overtime unknowingly to us be the very thing that gets in our way preventing us from living the life we ultimately desire. It can manifest itself in ways such as feeling frustrated with ourselves, self hate, feeling stuck, disconnected from our body, or even frozen with anxiety, depression, and maybe suicidal thoughts.

Hello, I'm so glad you're here.

For the past 13 years as a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I've had the privilege of walking alongside adults who feel unsure of themselves—those who wake up with anxiety, struggle through depression, or find themselves questioning their worth and direction. These feelings of uncertainty can be isolating, but they also represent the beginning of important self-discovery. Recently, I completed my PsyD, which has enriched my ability to help clients understand the underlying root causes of their patterns and behaviors. My goal through therapy is to help you discover your inner strengths to overcome life's challenges and promote personal growth.
