Great to meet you!

Hi, I am Dr. Cristina Bautista, Psy.D., LMFT. I have over 12 years of experience in helping children, adolescents, parents, adults, and couples. I am a mother, a military spouse, and a Latina. I believe everyone can use a little help so you may be the best person you can be. If you are being proactive or need a bit of help with current problems I will be able to provide you with tools necessary to overcome anything.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My focus is to help individuals heal, energize, and become aware of their inner strengths. I achieve this by providing a neutral safe space, listening to your concerns, and customizing a treatment plan. I use a combination of holistic approaches and evidence based therapies. I work from a CBT and Solution Focused orientation to teach you the tools you need and see results fast.

What you can expect from our first session

I promise to be there for you every step of your journey. My goal is to help you grow from your struggles, heal from your pain, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.
