Dr. Christina Joanitis

Hey there! Thanks for visiting my page! I'm Dr. Christina Joanitis. I'm a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in the South Bay, CA. I earned a PhD in Clinical Psychology and a Master's in Theology from Fuller Seminary School of Psychology in 2014. For the past decade, I have worked in a private practice setting providing individual and couples therapy as well as psychological assessment. I am passionate about seeing individuals find healing and wholeness in their life. By providing a safe and supportive environment for individuals to emote, process past hurts and traumas, and identify unhealthy behavioral patterns, I work with my clients to normalize emotions, challenge cognitive distortions, and develop a healthier view of self. Whether you are coming into therapy for the first time and need some help feeling comfortable, or whether you are looking for your 20th therapist and just want a safe landing place, I am here to support you. I also work hard to offer an unbiased and nonjudgemental space at whatever stage of your faith journey you land on (or not at all!). I work with many individuals from the LGBTQIA+ population and from a wide range of cultural and religious backgrounds. My job is not to tell you what to believe but to support you on your journey of becoming the best version of you, you can be. I look forward to meeting you! Populations Serviced: children (7+), adolescents, adults, couples Services Provided: I am currently only offering tele-therapy services through my private practice. This includes individual and couples counseling. I am also working to add in virtual psychological testing in 2025. Therapy Approaches: Psychodynamic, CBT, Client-Centered, Integrative, Mindfulness, Faith-Based
