Hello,

My name is Dr. Christine Gomes and I have been licensed as a clinical psychologist for the past 9.5 years. I received my doctoral degree from Rosemead School of Psychology in Los Angeles County, California. While I was in training, I worked with a wide variety of clients in different settings. In recent years, I have focused heavily on trauma-focused therapy techniques.

I live in the beautiful Southwest and I embrace my Hispanic Heritage. I am a bilingual therapist- Spanish. I specialize in helping adults overcome childhood trauma due to family inter-generational abuse. The focus of treatment is to overcome the anxiety, depression, guilt, and a host of other issues that result from unresolved pain. I will provide a strength based approach to healing and growth..

My interest in mental health began during my military service as a Survival Instructor in the United States Airforce. During this time, I had the privilege of teaching students from all walks of life the skills to survive in any environment. I became fascinated with human behavior, stress management/responses and the profound capabilities of the mind, body and spirit when faced with adversity. While navigating through the wilderness, a waypoint is defined as "a stop along ones journey." It is a safe place where the traveler can take shelter, rest, gain insight on where they've been, accept and honor where they are, and determine their way forward. It's a place for healing. This is what I strive to provide for my clients. I completed my Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling through Northwestern University. I have experience counseling couples, teens, adult individuals, and groups. As an Airforce veteran, I have a passion for serving military members and their families. Other interests include working with blended families, and LGBTQ+ individuals and their parents

Let's work together and help you find your direction. My counseling style is highly consultative and coaching-like. It is typically non-directive, as I believe each client pilot's their own ship, but when the situation warrants, there is plenty of idea sharing and strategizing as well.

I have been practicing for 21 years and work with clients of all ages and various backgrounds. I believe that with a strong therapeutic alliance, we can mutually come together and help you find a path forward that suits you.

I'm a licensed clinical social worker and therapist with over 10 years of experience working with children, teens, and adults. I'm passionate about supporting people in navigating life's storms, connecting with what matters most to them, and living meaningful, fulfilling lives.

I especially enjoy working with:

• New mothers and parents of all genders in nurturing their own well being through the world-upending transition to parenthood
• Parents at all stages facing the myriad pressures and stressors of modern life
• Adolescents and young adults navigating growth, change, and identity exploration

As a therapist (and a human), I understand how overwhelming life’s challenges can feel. Whether you’re struggling with relationship issues, grief, life transitions, or simply feeling stuck, I provide a supportive and authentic space for growth and healing. My approach is collaborative and tailored to your unique needs, helping you build resilience, strengthen connections, and rediscover yourself.
