Christina Weyer , LMFT

Christina Weyer is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) practicing in California with 13 years of clinical experience. She has worked with individuals, families, and groups in a Southern California community mental health clinic, supporting people through trauma, depression, anxiety, and relationship challenges. Christina integrates evidence-based methods such as Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Seeking Safety, and Motivational Interviewing alongside client-centered and strength-based interventions to meet each person's unique needs.

Her academic background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from California State University, Channel Islands (2007) and a Master of Arts in Psychology from Phillips Graduate Institute (2009). She uses an eclectic, client-centered style that prioritizes understanding an individual's life story rather than assigning labels, and she emphasizes collaboration, practical skills, and personal strengths.

Christina works with a broad range of concerns including stress, parenting and caregiver issues, grief, anger, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, attachment and family-of-origin issues, panic and social anxiety, and post-traumatic stress. She aims to help people develop clearer coping strategies and healthier relational patterns so they can move forward with greater resilience and well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christina commonly integrates Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Trauma-Focused Therapy in her online practice. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathetic listening and collaboration, creating space for clients to explore values, identity, and relationships while building self-understanding and confidence. CBT focuses on identifying and changing unhelpful thought patterns and behaviors, offering practical tools and skill-building that can reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and panic. Trauma-Focused Therapy addresses the impact of traumatic experiences through structured approaches that help process difficult memories and alleviate trauma-related reactions.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together - Christina collaborates with each person to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adapts strategies as progress is made. This collaborative process helps ensure the care feels useful and aligned with what the client hopes to achieve.

Online therapy options such as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging provide flexibility and accessibility for different schedules and comfort levels. Licensed professionals can deliver these approaches effectively through multiple formats, allowing clients to fit therapy into busy lives and choose the communication style that works best for them.
