Getting to know Christina Ortiz

Hi there, I'm Christina! I'm Christina Ortiz, a bilingual-bicultural Latina Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in private practice in California with ten years of professional experience. I earned my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Antioch University Santa Barbara. Over the years, I have completed various trainings such as EMDR, DBT, and CBT to enhance my clinical skills and better support my clients in reaching their academic, social, vocational, and personal goals. I continue to research new interventions and techniques to help reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and complex trauma. My approach I provide integrative therapy, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution-focused therapy, mindfulness, and more, tailoring services to fit each client’s unique needs. I use a holistic approach to help regulate the nervous system through mind and body techniques such as mindfulness, breath work, EFT tapping, and EMDR. My focus I work with adolescents and adults struggling with anxiety, depression, and complex trauma. I am here to support you on your journey toward personal growth and healing, helping you build skills, knowledge, and confidence. Together, we will explore your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors to foster deeper understanding and lasting change. My communication style I create a safe, compassionate, and culturally sensitive environment where you can share openly without fear of judgment. My goal is to support your growth by providing the tools and practices needed to reach your goals and improve your well-being. My journey to mental healthcare I have a deep passion for helping the Latino community and other minorities. As a Latina therapist, I see you and am committed to helping you gain the tools necessary to achieve your goals and thrive.
