About

Share, Learn, & Transform

Welcome to My Practice Hi, I’m Kristina Gonzalez, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker providing telehealth psychotherapy to adults across California. Over my 12-year clinical career, I have refined my skills across mental health agencies, hospitals, government organizations, and non-profit clinics. I am deeply passionate about this work and dedicated to helping my clients thrive. My Approach & Style Clients describe me as an exceptional listener and a challenging guide who provides a warm, nurturing environment for growth. Because the therapeutic relationship is the foundation of our work, I practice with a deep commitment to cultural humility. I honor the diverse backgrounds and global upbringings of my clients, a commitment that keeps my practice curious, humble, and grounded. About Me As a biracial cis woman, a first-generation high school and college graduate, and the daughter of an immigrant, my worldview is shaped by the diverse communities I've called home—from Los Angeles, Orange County, and the Central Valley to Oakland and San Francisco. For the past nine years, I have lived in Humboldt County. Outside of my practice, I am a toddler mom who restores her own mind and body through yoga, pilates, beach days, and hiking with my family.
