I am a licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) with almost a decade of experience in the mental health field. I work with teens, young adults, college students, and women living with OCD, anxiety, phobias, trauma, BFRBs (hair pulling, skin picking, nail biting), and perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (postpartum depression, OCD, and anxiety).

Being a teen girl is tough! Raising a teen girl can be even tougher. Anxiety, depression, identity issues, peer relations, academic stress, and outside pressures can leave teen girls needing increased support just as many are beginning to pull away from their parents to develop their own passions and purpose. Parents often find themselves feeling like an outsider as their teen daughters suddenly begin to turn to peers, friends, and social media for advice and guidance instead of mom or dad. This can lead to increased family conflict as parents and teens struggle to communicate with each other and find common ground.

I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) and a National Certified Counselor (NCC) with experience in working with a variety of issues including, but not limited to, depression, anxiety, trauma, child abuse/neglect, ADHD, conduct disorder, behavioral disorders, personality disorders, and adjustment disorders. I work with children, adolescents, teens, adults, families, and couples. My areas of expertise include behavioral issues, family cohesion, crisis and trauma, adjustment, and parenting/co-parenting.

My clinical approach is authentic and integrative, resulting in a collaborative treatment plan based on client’s culture and values, the best available clinical research, and clinical expertise for my clients to thrive in their lives. I enjoy working with children, adolescents and adults in individual, family and group settings. I specialize in the treatment of anxiety, ADHD, OCD, Executive Functioning (EF) skills, complex trauma/PTSD, bipolar disorder, depression, racial/cultural identities, academic performance, family conflicts, relationship issues, grief, life transitions, stress and other life concerns.

In my approach to child therapy, I bring a distinctive perspective rooted in the intersection of play therapy, child development, and early relational health. With a deep understanding of how children navigate their world through play and exploration, I integrate evidence-based techniques from play therapy into my practice.Moreover, my extensive study and expertise in child development allow me to tailor interventions that are both developmentally appropriate and effective.

I view counseling as a partnership between myself, the client, and their family/support system. I have experience working with individuals, groups, and family/marital therapy. In addition to working with depression, anxiety, stress management, and relationship skills, I have experience with personality disorders, and trauma healing; particularly women who have abuse in their history and are currently experiencing distress in relationships, re-victimization, and/or substance use. I believe in meeting the client where they are at and moving forward in their time and stage of change.

I work best with folks who are seeking practical effective solutions to their personal, family or relationships problems and who would like to see results as quickly as possible. They are open to learning new ways of thinking about their problems and are receptive to new approaches. You can generally count on leaving your first session confident that I understand the problems you have presented and have clear formulations and concrete solutions to offer. Half of my cases are closed in under six sessions, most with good and lasting results.

I'm Cristina Alba, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) dedicated to fostering positive change and well-being. With a compassionate and client-centered approach, I believe in creating a safe space where individuals can explore, heal, and grow.

My therapeutic approach is grounded in empathy and collaboration. I work collaboratively with clients, utilizing evidence-based practices to tailor interventions to individual needs.

My practice is based on the theory of Analytical Psychology founded by Carl Jung. What this means to me that therapy is not about "fixing" but about "growing" by becoming aware of what is unconscious. Loss, trauma, anxiety, depression. These things happen to all of us sooner or later & like a force of nature, they need to be understood in order to be withstood. My goal is to help people become more conscious to better understand themselves & figure out their personal path through pain and towards individuation. I provide coaching & symptom management for immediate problems while nurturing seismic shifts for lasting change.
