Kristina Yuen, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Kristina!

I work with individuals and families navigating perinatal and postpartum challenges. My focus is on creating a space where you feel fully heard, valued, and understood as we address the unique emotional needs of this transformative time.

My focus

My client focus is on individuals and families seeking warmth, support, and compassionate care throughout their perinatal and postpartum journeys. I specialize in trauma-informed care, ensuring that each client feels seen, heard, and supported, no matter where they are in their healing process.

My approach

My approach to therapy is client-centered, meaning we would focus on creating a space where you feel fully heard, valued, and understood. I believe in being open and flexible, adapting to your needs as we work together toward your goals.

My communication style

My communication style is warm, open, and approachable. I believe in creating a safe space where clients feel comfortable sharing even the most challenging or difficult details.

My journey to mental healthcare

My journey to becoming a provider was driven by a deep desire to help others and to be a source of support during some of the most significant moments in their lives. I’ve always been drawn to the idea of being a witness to both the best and the most challenging moments people experience, offering comfort and guidance along the way.

My goals for you

In sessions with me, you can expect a warm, open environment where you’ll be comfortable sharing and exploring your thoughts and feelings. We’ll work together to set therapy goals that feel right for you, with a focus on what you want to achieve.

Our first session

A first session with me is all about building a strong foundation of trust and understanding. We’ll spend time getting to know each other, and I’ll listen openly to your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. I believe in a collaborative approach, so we’ll work together to establish your goals and discuss what you hope to achieve.
