Hi there, my name is Kristin Boyd, and my goal is to help you navigate life’s difficult transitions with strength and support; to empower you to claim your journey and make positive change.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT135236) with my certification in Perinatal Mental Health. I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and my Master’s degree in Marriage and Family Therapy both from Chapman University. I have experience working with adults, teens, couples and families.

I am passionate about working with moms who have experienced the unexpected; from fertility challenges and pregnancy loss to hyperemesis gravidarum and birth trauma. As a mom who has experienced the unexpected myself, I focus on creating a safe space to heal from these difficult experiences. In addition to working with new mamas, I also specialize in working with individuals and couples adjusting to parental transitions, adults struggling with self-worth, grief and loss, trauma survivors, improving familial and intimate relationships, stress management and setting healthy boundaries.

I work from a strengths-based perspective and incorporate humor into our therapeutic relationship. I believe the relationship we build together can be healing in itself and I aim to meet you where you are at to do just that. I integrate the wisdom of family systems theories, cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and attachment theory to provide you with a plan that fits your needs. I hope to create a space where you feel supported and empowered to create the change you wish to see in your life.
