Getting to know Christina Kam

Hi! I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, born and raised in Los Angeles, serving clients in California. I support individuals seeking insight into change and acceptance through self-compassion. My approach I practice mainly from a person-centered and family systems perspective. My aim is to guide you as you learn about yourself and your impact on relationships and the world around you. I incorporate cultural and multi-generational concepts because I believe core values and patterns are passed through kin. Our time together is a safe space to practice, feel, and process so you feel confident in your intentions outside therapy. My focus As an Asian American navigating two cultures, I have experienced the dualities between cultural expectations and personal identity. I specialize in trauma-informed care with adults of all backgrounds, using a cultural lens to understand lived experiences. Together, we explore how to respect culture while honoring the change you seek in your identity. I also support individuals struggling with substance misuse and multi-generational family patterns impacting self and relationships. My communication style I practice interactively because we need to walk the walk to facilitate change and create awareness. In our work, I focus on establishing a therapeutic relationship that honors your lived experiences through a cultural lens, allowing space for collaboration. My journey to mental healthcare Born and bred in Los Angeles, I have encountered many individuals with unique stories and experiences. Growing up Asian American during the model minority myth era, I struggled with pre-set expectations. These experiences inspired my path to therapy. I earned my Master’s in Marriage and Family Therapy from Pacific Oaks College and my PsyD from The Chicago School of Professional Psychology. These experiences deepened my commitment to culturally informed, compassionate care.
