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 community mental health clinic in the Southern California area, helping clients of all ages navigate trauma, depression, anxiety, and other life challenges using evidence-based methods. Christina blends Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Seeking Safety, Motivational Interviewing, and traditional therapeutic interventions to meet each person where they are.

Her academic training includes a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from California State University, Channel Islands, completed in 2007, and a Master of Arts in Psychology from Phillips Graduate Institute, earned in 2009. As an LMFT, Christina draws on a client-centered, cognitive-behavioral, solution-focused, and strength-based approach to support growth and healing. She prioritizes understanding each person beyond diagnostic labels and seeks to learn how life experiences and relationships have shaped their current difficulties.

Christina aims to provide supportive, practical care that addresses emotional and relational concerns such as stress, parenting challenges, grief, trauma, and mood-related issues. Her work emphasizes collaboration, empathy, and building skills that help clients move toward their goals and greater well-being.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christina combines client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral and trauma-focused approaches to support people in online sessions. Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic space where the therapist follows the client's lead and helps them explore their own values and strengths - it is useful for building self-esteem, improving relationships, and navigating life transitions.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. It is practical and structured, and it often helps with anxiety, depression, panic, and other mood-related concerns. Trauma-Focused Therapy targets the effects of traumatic events and provides techniques to process traumatic memories, reduce symptoms, and improve safety and coping.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Christina works with clients to determine which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress unfolds. Therapists and clients set achievable goals together and review what is working.

Online therapy offers flexibility by allowing sessions by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, access support from home, and continue consistent work toward goals with licensed professionals.
