Kristina Smith

Therapist

Virtual & in-person • 6.8 mi away • San Juan Capistrano, CA


Hello! I'm Kris and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) in California and the founder of Village Wellness Center, a thriving group psychotherapy practice based in San Juan Capistrano. I have over 25 years of experience in the mental health field, and I specialize in maternal mental health, depression, anxiety, life transitions, relationship challenges, and the unique needs of women and mothers.

I earned my Bachelor’s Degree in Psychology from Sacramento State University and returned to school 15 years later to earn my Master’s Degree in Counseling Psychology from the American School of Professional Psychology.

The beginning of my career in mental health started in residential care helping at-risk youth, and over the course of 20 years, my work and experience evolved into leading and developing clinical programs for outpatient and court-mandated facilities while also building my specialty in perinatal mood disorders and maternal mental health in my private practice. Additionally over the past two decades, I was raising my family and actively contributing to the Dana Point and San Juan Capistrano communities.

Through my own struggles with postpartum depression and anxiety, I became a passionate advocate for maternal wellness and thriving families. This became the catalyst to opening Village Wellness Center, where the ability to serve entire families and promote holistic mental wellness with a team of therapists can be achieved.

Happy patient looking away

Find the right therapist for you

Headway makes it easy to find support for your mental health — from finding the right provider, to understanding costs, to scheduling with ease.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in Laguna Hills, CA

Searching for therapists in Laguna Hills starts with knowing what kind of support you want and which therapist’s experience matches it. You may be looking for care related to anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, grief, life transitions, or stress. As you compare therapists, look for listed specialties, therapy styles, and details about how they structure sessions. A bio can help you see whether a therapist’s background and approach fit what you want from care.

Laguna Hills is a smaller city, so local in-person availability may vary by office location and schedule. Virtual therapy can expand your options across California while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. As you narrow your search, consider appointment times, whether the therapist is accepting new patients, and whether they offer a free phone consultation. Reading profiles before booking can help you compare communication style, specialties, and what to expect in a first session.

Therapy in Laguna Hills can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand your estimated price before booking. Headway helps you search for therapists who match your preferences, take your insurance, and are accepting new patients. You can browse profiles, review availability, and book directly when you’re ready.
