Christina Weyer, LMFT

LMFT in California with 13 years of experience, Christina Weyer focuses on stress, anxiety, trauma, parenting concerns, and mood-related issues. She works with individuals to address depression, relationship difficulties, grief, anger, self-esteem, ADHD, and life transitions. Christina uses a mix of practical therapy methods rather than sticking to one approach.

Christina learned psychology at California State University, Channel Islands, earning a bachelor’s degree, then completed a master’s degree in psychology at Phillips Graduate Institute. She practiced for many years in a Southern California community mental health clinic, working with individuals, families, and groups across a wide age range.

Her day-to-day work uses Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people talk through thought patterns and coping skills. She also draws on Motivational Interviewing and Solution-Focused Therapy to set concrete goals and make change feel manageable. Trauma-Focused Therapy is part of the toolbox for people recovering from traumatic experiences.

Sessions aim to look at what’s happening now and how past experiences shape present difficulties. Conversations are practical and goal-oriented when needed, and include space to process emotions and family background. She avoids overemphasizing diagnostic labels and focuses on the person in front of her.

Christina helps people address caregiver stress, attachment concerns, communication problems, panic attacks, social anxiety, and young adult issues. Her background includes work with mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and family of origin dynamics. She uses evidence-based methods alongside more traditional therapeutic techniques.

To begin, Christina asks people to share current struggles and goals so she can recommend an approach that fits. She encourages straightforward planning for next steps rather than vague promises.
