Therapist

Virtual & in-person • Sebastopol, CA


Hola, Soy Christina Zapata, mi pronombre es ella. Hello, I'm Christina Zapata, my pronouns are she and her. I am bilingual (English/Spanish), bi-and pan cultural. My professional training is in clinical social work. I started out in depth-oriented psychotherapy in 2012, moved to family work with foster and adoptive families in the middle part of my career and have returned to psychodynamic, systems-oriented psychotherapy with individuals and families since 2017. I have experience working with Transgender individuals, those in current or former relationships where intimate partner violence is present, foster and adopted youth, and Spanish speaking political and economic refugees and immigrants. I am trained in EMDR. I have undertaken a three year grief training to help people stay connected to, sit with and move through pain. More recently, I am adding to my practice work around supporting individuals who are experiencing stress and confusion in their workplace.

Find the right counselor for your family

Headway makes it easier to find family-focused support — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Family Therapy Therapist in Fontana, CA

Searching for family therapists in Fontana starts with finding someone whose training matches what your family is navigating. Family therapy can support parenting conflict, adolescent struggles, blended family dynamics, and communication across generations. A family therapist is trained to work with the relational system, not just one person. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with family systems, parent-child relationships, conflict patterns, or other areas that connect to your goals.

In a mid-sized city like Fontana, the right fit may depend on both clinical focus and practical details. Some families prefer in-person therapy in Fontana, while others choose virtual sessions to make scheduling easier across school, work, and caregiving needs. Session attendance may also vary by therapist and goal — sometimes the full family joins, and sometimes a parent, child, sibling, or smaller part of the family attends. Reading therapist bios can help you understand how each therapist structures family sessions, communicates with family members, and approaches concerns like marriage counseling, parenting, or behavioral health.

Therapy in Fontana can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make ongoing care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists in Fontana who are accepting new patients, compare virtual and in-person availability, and see your estimated out-of-pocket cost before booking. You can review therapist profiles, check fit, and book directly when you’re ready.

If you're experiencing or worried about violence, threats, or coercion in your relationship, couples therapy isn't usually the right starting point — individual support is safer. The National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.

If anyone in your family is experiencing or worried about abuse, threats, or coercion, joint family or couples therapy usually isn't the right starting point — individual support is safer. The Childhelp National Child Abuse Hotline (1-800-422-4453) and National Domestic Violence Hotline (1-800-799-7233, or text START to 88788\) can help you think through next steps.
