Hi there, I'm Christian!
I'm a Psy.D., LMFT (#160679) and I have spent the last 15 years as a therapist making it my life's mission to be the safe place for others to land while they navigate their most difficult times. I am also an adjunct professor who teaches and supports student therapists to do the same.
My focus
As an anti-racist, Chicano, first-generation college graduate, I find that my background resonates deeply with other minorities navigating the balance between our conflicting identities. I specialize in relationship therapy (couples, marriage, polyamory), and I am proudly certified in LGBT Mental Health and Human Services.
My approach
I pride myself in creating a warm, deeply supportive, and truly inclusive space. As someone with multiple marginalized identities, I know what it's like to be different, and to navigate the unknown without a roadmap. I not only celebrate my clients' unique intersectional identities, but I make them central to every step of the therapy process.
