Hi, I'm Cristina Hodge, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) serving adults and couples in California. I help people who are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, trauma, life transitions, and recurring patterns that leave them feeling stuck.

I believe that many of the struggles we experience today are connected to patterns that developed earlier in life and continue to influence how we relate to ourselves and others. Together, we'll explore the thoughts, emotions, and relationship dynamics that may be contributing to your current challenges while building practical tools for lasting change.

I am passionate about helping clients develop greater self-awareness, improve their relationships, and move toward a more satisfying and meaningful life. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship conflict, or a difficult life transition, therapy can provide a space for understanding, growth, empowerment, and meaningful change.

As a therapist, I am passionate about walking alongside folks as they reveal their truths and vulnerabilities to themselves. I believe, and have witnessed that people are capable of long standing change with knowledge, support, and connection, and that therapy is a great place for that. You can learn new ways to manage life stressors, feel safe, gain confidence, and live a more joyful and purposeful life. I use cognitive behavioral, solution-focused, and strength-based techniques, while never ignoring the human element and connection where the real change happens.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with over 17 years of experience providing behavioral health services, including substance use treatment, trauma-informed care, crisis intervention, and co-occurring mental health treatment. I work with adolescents, adults, families, and older adults navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, and major life transitions.

Throughout my career, I have worked with individuals from a wide range of backgrounds, cultures, identities, and lived experiences. I have extensive experience serving American Indian and Alaska Native communities and integrate culturally responsive, strengths-based, and holistic approaches into treatment. I am committed to providing inclusive, affirming, and respectful care and welcome clients of all backgrounds, identities, and life experiences.

My professional background includes work in residential treatment, psychiatric and behavioral health settings, crisis services, substance use programs, schools, tribal health programs, and community mental health. I have also supervised clinicians and social work students and contributed to program development focused on recovery, resilience, and culturally grounded healing.

I have 10 years of experience working with children, individuals, couples and families to using a strength-based, systems approach. For couple’s I utilize Gottman-based approaches.

I worked over 20 years in several corporate, nonprofit and government settings prior to becoming a licensed therapist. I received my master's degree in Mental Health Counseling at City University of Seattle. During my internship I worked with a county mental health agency serving seriously mentally ill clients for six years. In addition, I have completed extensive training and received certification in both Crisis Counseling and Grief Counseling. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and a Certified Narcissistic Abuse Treatment Clinician (NATC).

I am an African American woman with over 32 years of experience providing social service and therapeutic support to marginalized families who have experienced trauma — from Criminal Justice involvement, Adult and Child Protection systems, to housing insecurity, intimate partner violence and substance use challenges. I also have a deep passion for working with pregnant and postpartum individuals navigating pregnancy loss, perinatal mood disorders, leading to postpartum depression and anxiety. It is also important for me to hold space for Fathers who are navigating raising children as single fathers.

My therapeutic approach creates a safe, compassionate space where we partner together to challenge unhealthy beliefs, reduce shame and guilt, and address traumatic experiences at whatever pace feels right for you.

While my work is primarily centered with the BIPOC community — African American women specifically — it is my goal that no individual ever feel alone when dealing with depression, anxiety, or trauma. Through active listening and gentle, honest dialogue, I partner with individuals to uncover what is keeping them stuck and walk through those hard places together — building trust, fostering resilience, and creating a real sense of freedom for themselves and their families.

I use an integrative, holistic, trauma-informed, and culturally aware approach. My style is warm, empathetic, and thoughtful, as well as active, pragmatic, and concrete. I foster a safe environment for deep reflection and for developing and implementing the necessary tools to encourage desired change.
