Christi Morales-Kumasawa, LMFT

Therapy

I meet clients wherever they are in their life journey and honor their unique experiences. As a Filipina, I’m mindful of how culture and systems shape well-being. My deep understanding of neurodiversity comes with respect for different communication and processing styles. I incorporate mind-body approaches (somatic) —like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, Emotional Freedom Technique, and Mindfulness—to help the brain and body work together to process stress to feel better. I can offer short, goal-oriented sessions or space for deeper healing — and tailor sessions to my clients’ individual needs.
