Christina Martinez

Christina Martinez, a dedicated marriage and family therapist associate, believes that while the journey of healing can be arduous, the rewards are immeasurable. She draws inspiration from the words of Victoria Arlen, recognizing that pain often serves a deeper purpose, even when it feels overwhelming. Christina understands that our relationships within family systems often shape our responses to pain, which can lead to struggles with depression, anxiety, or the instinct to numb our emotions. Through her compassionate approach, she emphasizes the importance of experiencing, holding space for, and ultimately releasing pain—a pathway toward healing that brings heart and mind into harmony, cultivating acceptance, peace, and understanding. As a heart-centered therapist, Christina employs a 'bottom-up' perspective, driven by her passion for universal truths, human connection, and the nurturing of self-worth. Her foundational knowledge encompasses Attachment Theory, Systems Theory, Structural Theory, Internal Family Systems Theory, and Object Relations, combined with mindfulness practices. Recognizing the sanctity of the therapeutic process, Christina creates a supportive and accepting space where individuals can embrace their vulnerabilities and unburden their hearts. It is her privilege to accompany clients on their unique healing journeys.
