Be Authentic Family Therapy Services, Inc. Michele Putini, Director
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., LMFT
When something happens in a family, sometimes children and teens don't know how to manage it. They may not know how to express what they feel and may act out, behave in ways that are not typical or withdraw or isolate themselves. Children's first language is play so we utilize play therapy, art therapy techniques and sand tray therapy to help them to express themselves in a safe enviornment. We believe through the connection of the safe therapeutic relationship, children, teens and families can heal from the challenges and move towards wellness, growth and discovery of their most authentic self. If your child is experiencing a challenge then your whole family is having a challenge and we can help you process those feelings, discover new coping skills to manage symptoms and move towards the healing we all desire. We are here to help guide you. We all desire to be seen and heard and treated with respect. We honor all of our clients whether they are 4 or 94 years old. We can help you discover what you need. Make an appointment so we can begin the healing.

Dr. Cristal Lopez
Psychologist, Ph.D.
Welcome! You might be feeling disconnected from your family, friends, children, job, or even the world. I'm Dr. Cristal Lopez, and I believe that we all have powerful strengths. Together, we will explore yours to help you unlock your full potential, connect authentically with others, and show up as your true self. My training at top U.S. children's hospitals, including Children's Hospital Los Angeles, California Pacific Medical Center, Texas Children’s Hospital, and Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia, has provided me with over 6 years of experience working with children, adolescents, young and mid-life adults, and families.
For my younger clients, I use behavioral and play therapy techniques, while also supporting parents and families to foster healthy connections. With adolescents and adults, I draw on strength-based, humanistic, and relational principles to guide our work together.
Beyond traditional mental health concerns, I specialize and publish work in: coping with chronic illnesses, career-related issues (burnout, work-life balance), trauma, adverse childhood experiences, and stress related to first-responder families. I’m committed to guiding you, your child, or family to a more connected and fulfilling life. Invest in yourself!

Christian Holmes
Marriage and Family Therapist, M.A., Associate Marriage and Family Therapist
Having worked for a number for years as a school counselor and youth pastor I understand the unique challenges kids/teens face as well as what parents go through trying to help them. Every child is unique and needs an approach that is tailored uniquely to them and the family. In our work together, I help clients cultivate not only practical skills but identity level understandings that allow kids/teens to increase in confidence and self-esteem, conflict management, and their ability to process traumatic events (bullying, divorce, etc). Contact me for more information.
