I work with adults experiencing anxiety and depression, including overthinking, low motivation, feeling overwhelmed, and a loss of interest in daily life.

Many of my clients come in feeling mentally exhausted, stuck in their thoughts, or unsure why things feel harder than they should. I work with adults of all ages, but I have a strong understanding of the challenges that often come up in early adulthood and major life transitions.

My goal is to help you better understand what’s going on and give you a clear, realistic path forward.

Hi, I'm Cristina Hodge, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) serving adults and couples in California. I help people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, and recurring patterns that leave them feeling stuck.

Many of the struggles people experience today are influenced by recurring patterns in the way they think, respond, and relate to others. Together, we'll identify the patterns contributing to your current challenges, develop practical tools for change, and create meaningful, lasting progress.

I am passionate about helping clients develop greater self-awareness, improve their relationships, and move toward a more satisfying and meaningful life. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, or a difficult life transition, therapy can provide a space for understanding, growth, empowerment, and meaningful change.
