I am a dedicated Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker (LICSW)
with a wealth of experience providing direct therapeutic services to diverse populations.
With advanced degrees in Social Work and Child Development, I am skilled in
conducting complex bio-psychosocial and diagnostic assessments for children,
adolescents, and adults. I provide individualized, evidence-based treatment
for individuals, couples, and groups, addressing a broad range of behavioral health
challenges including post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), depression, anxiety,
adjustment disorder and grief. My clinical practice is grounded in a variety of proven
modalities such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy
(CPT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).
Throughout my career, I have demonstrated a profound commitment to
patient care within demanding environments, including military and outpatient settings.
I have served as a primary therapist in the Army Embedded Behavioral Health clinics,
supported the Army Family Behavioral health Clinic, and provided on-call crisis support for
hospital emergency rooms. A core component of my work involves developing and
monitoring individualized treatment plans to ensure measurable progress and positive
outcomes for my clients. By providing specialized, person-centered counseling and
intervention, I empower my clients to achieve recovery and wellness.
I believe the best mental health care begins with listening. I provide compassionate, evidence-based psychiatric evaluations and medication management for children, adolescents, and adults experiencing ADHD, anxiety, depression, mood disorders, behavioral concerns, and life stressors. My approach is collaborative and personalized, taking time to understand the whole person, not just their symptoms.
Together, we'll develop a treatment plan tailored to your unique needs, which may include medication management, education, lifestyle recommendations, and brief supportive therapy during medication management visits. While I incorporate therapeutic techniques into our appointments to help you build coping skills and achieve your treatment goals, I do not provide ongoing individual psychotherapy. If more intensive or regular therapy would benefit you, I'm happy to coordinate care with your therapist or help connect you with one.
My goal is to create a welcoming, judgment-free space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to make meaningful, lasting progress.

Hello, I'm Cristina. I help people who struggle with high functioning anxiety, people-pleasing, and constant overthinking, even when they appear to have things together on the outside. I also work with those who find themselves questioning their relationships, struggling to set boundaries, or navigating major life transitions such as new relationships, marriage, or becoming a parent.
As a bilingual therapist, I work with teens, young adults, and adults who want to better understand the patterns shaping their anxiety, relationships, and sense of self. Together, we focus on building stronger self-awareness, clearer boundaries, and greater confidence in your decisions so you can move forward with more clarity and self-trust.

Whether you're navigating trauma, life transitions, leaving IOP settings, or identity questions, I'm here to walk alongside you with warmth, cultural sensitivity, and clinical expertise.
