Pronouns: Ze/Zem

Christina is a trauma-informed, holistic psychotherapist who believes in the power of creativity, connection and embodiment. Ze takes a holistic approach that honors the whole person — mind, body, soul, and spirit — and supports healing that feels grounded, intuitive, and collaborative.

Christina is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT). Ze earned a Master’s in Social Work from California State University, Northridge and a Bachelor’s in Middle East and South Asia Studies from UC Davis. Christina has been trained in Somatic Experiencing, Spiritually-Integrated Psychotherapy and Trauma-Informed Yoga, deepening ze’s skills in nervous system support and spiritual care.

Christina specializes in holistic trauma healing with young adults (18–30) who may be navigating psychosis, identity exploration, racial/gender trauma, life transitions, depression, suicidal thoughts, domestic or sexual violence, or spiritual shifts. Ze’s work is shaped by a wide range of experience — from crisis intervention and first-episode psychosis treatment to supporting survivors of domestic and sexual violence. Ze has also spent several years in research and program development, leading community-focused initiatives to support LGBTQI2-S transitional age youth in Los Angeles County.

Social justice and equity are foundational to Christina’s approach. Ze is committed to understanding each person within their cultural context, including how oppression, identity, and generational trauma impact wellbeing. As a gender fluid, neurodivergent, and biracial clinician, Christina values creating spaces where every part of someone’s identity can be seen, honored, and supported.

Outside the therapy room, Christina finds meaning in spirituality, the occult, astrology, and nature. Ze is a lifelong learner who enjoys yoga, travel, and exploring the mystical and mysteries that connect us.
