Christina Kohfield is a California-licensed marriage and family therapist with 22 years of clinical experience. She has worked with people facing a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, career difficulties, depression, relationship and family conflicts, grief, intimacy issues, eating and sleeping disorders, parenting challenges, anger management, self-esteem struggles, bipolar disorder, ADHD, compassion fatigue, and transitions related to life changes and coaching.
Her counseling style is warm and down-to-earth, designed to help clients feel comfortable speaking frankly about what is on their minds and in their hearts. Christina blends cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, and psychodynamic approaches to tailor therapy to each person - sometimes offering compassionate listening and validation, and other times working toward concrete action plans with step-by-step guidance.
She is Christian and has experienced a personal conversion; she is trained in Christian counseling and holds the view that faith in God can be a powerful part of personal transformation. In therapy she emphasizes collaboration - teaming up with clients to surface insight, inner wisdom, and the motivation needed to make desired changes, then creating a plan to improve their current situation.
On a practical level, Christina’s office hours vary, though she generally sees clients most days of the week, with morning and evening availability. She aims to respond to messages within 24 hours. If a video session is needed at a time that does not appear on the posted schedule, she invites prospective clients to send a message to explore alternate timing.
She often cites spiritual and philosophical reflections such as “...but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:26; “Out of clutter, find simplicity. Out of discord, find harmony. In the middle of difficulty, lies opportunity.” Albert Einstein; and “The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts: therefore, guard accordingly, and take care that you entertain no notions unsuitable to virtue and reasonable nature.” Marcus Aurelius. Christina looks forward to working with individuals who seek support and meaningful change.
For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been shown to work as effectively as traditional in-person sessions. It can be an appropriate option for people seeking consistent therapeutic support for everyday mental health challenges.
One major benefit is flexibility. Clients can choose the communication method that best fits their needs and comfort level - video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or in-app messaging - which makes it easier to arrange sessions around work, family, and other obligations.
Another advantage is accessibility: licensed professionals provide online therapy, and if a therapist does not feel like the right fit, clients typically have the option to switch to a different therapist. For many people, the combination of evidence supporting online treatment for common issues and the practical convenience of remote sessions makes online therapy a helpful path to getting started with mental health care.
