About Cristina

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Nevada with over three years of experience providing clinical mental health services to individuals navigating a variety of emotional, behavioral, and life challenges. I work with clients experiencing depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, anger and emotional regulation concerns, OCD, ADHD, life transitions, and interpersonal stress. I also have experience supporting individuals who have experienced trauma, emotional abuse, and other difficult or overwhelming life experiences.
My therapeutic style is warm, compassionate, collaborative, and interactive. I believe that meaningful change begins within a therapeutic relationship where you feel heard, respected, and accepted without judgment. Rather than defining people by diagnoses or stigmatizing labels, I strive to understand each person within the context of their unique experiences, strengths, relationships, and goals.
My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), motivational interviewing, and person-centered interventions. Because therapy is not one-size-fits-all, I tailor our conversations, interventions, and treatment goals to your individual needs while helping you develop greater insight, strengthen coping skills, improve emotional regulation, and create meaningful changes in your life.
Beginning therapy can require courage, particularly when you have been carrying difficult emotions or experiences for a long time. You do not have to have everything figured out before you begin. Therapy can be a place to explore what you are experiencing, identify what is no longer serving you, recognize your strengths, and begin moving toward the life and relationships you want.
If you are ready to take that next step, I would be honored to provide a supportive space where you can feel heard, challenged when appropriate, and empowered throughout the process. I look forward to working with you.
