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.

Some seasons of life ask more of you than you ever expected, and somewhere along the way you stopped feeling like yourself. I work with teens, parents, and adults who are moving through anxiety, depression, grief, relationship strain, and the heavy stretches that come with big life transitions. I care deeply about supporting LGBTQIA+ and transgender clients, and families who want to understand and show up for one another a little better. So much of this work is simply remembering that you do not have to carry any of it alone.

I am open, approachable, and committed to listening carefully to your experiences without judgment. I believe that each person carries a unique story, and my goal is to provide a supportive space where you feel heard, understood, and encouraged as you navigate life’s challenges and opportunities for growth. Together, we can explore what is most important to you and work toward creating a life that feels meaningful, authentic, and aligned with your values.

My background includes earning a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley, along with a lifelong appreciation for personal growth, nature, and the healing power of connection. Growing up learning to surf fostered a deep respect for the ocean and the lessons it offers about resilience, balance, and adapting to life's changing conditions. These experiences have shaped my belief in the importance of honoring each individual’s journey and recognizing that growth often comes through both challenge and reflection.

Therapist

Virtual • California


My journey into mental health began with a deep interest in the intersection of human behavior and emotional resilience.

I enjoy working with adolescents and adults going through life transitions and experiencing trauma. My current practice includes individual treatment helping adults with anxiety and depression, self-esteem/confidence, grief, trauma and life transitions! Finding a therapist with whom you connect with is important.

Over the past 14 years, I have worked in a variety of settings, including private practice, community clinics and public school settings. These experiences have shaped my belief that therapy is not a "one-size-fits-all" process, but rather a collaborative partnership built on trust and evidence-based strategies!

I hold a Master of Social Work from California State Long Beach as well as a Bachelor of Social Work from Azusa Pacific University..

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Newport Beach

Searching for therapists in Newport Beach starts with finding someone whose training fits what you want support with. Therapists may focus on concerns like anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, stress, or life transitions. As you compare options, look for specialties and therapy approaches that match your needs, such as cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy. A therapist’s profile can also show how they structure sessions and what you can expect from their approach.

Newport Beach has a smaller local market than nearby cities in Orange County, so virtual care can help expand your options beyond offices close to home, work, or school. Some people prefer in-person sessions, while others choose virtual appointments for scheduling flexibility. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading bios before booking can help you compare communication style, areas of focus, and session format.

Therapy in Newport Beach can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and make care easier to plan for. Headway helps you search for therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, see estimated out-of-pocket costs before booking, and choose between virtual and in-person options. You can browse therapists, review profiles, and book directly when you’re ready.
