Getting to know Cristina Wood

Hi there, I'm Cristina! Hello, I am Cristina Wood, a Marriage Family Therapist with a Master?s in Psychology from Antioch University ? Los Angeles. I believe we already have inside us everything we need to accomplish anything we want in life. We have the ability?even in complete despair?to connect with that little flame in our heart that fuels our soul and links us with LIFE. The process can be challenging but rewarding and enriching. It sets us free, makes us stronger, and gives us the power to move toward a life full of possibilities. My approach I use methods to help you regain control over your emotions and thoughts, facilitating healing from within. These approaches are effective in transforming pain into empowerment. This journey involves working together to untangle the web of your experiences, aiming to restore peace and vitality to your life. My focus You are constantly battling negative thoughts. The weight of PTSD, severe anxiety, and panic is an immense burden shaping every moment of your day. Each thought seems to carry a sharp edge, cutting into your peace and leaving you raw. You?ve spent so much time fighting anxiety, trying to suppress, hide, or force it away. This internal war has only amplified your suffering, creating a vicious cycle where the harder you push back, the stronger it becomes. It?s exhausting, isn?t it? My communication style In sessions, I create a warm, compassionate, and safe environment where clients feel genuinely supported and understood. From the start, my focus is on building a trusting, accepting space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgment. I know discussing personal struggles?especially anxiety and trauma?can be challenging, so I move at a pace that feels comfortable for you, ensuring you always feel in control of your journey.
