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!

David Sudyka
Marriage and Family Therapist, Marriage & Family Therapist, LMFT, MA
ADHD can make it difficult to stay organized, manage time, and follow through on tasks, even when you know what needs to get done. You may feel frustrated, scattered, or overwhelmed by daily responsibilities. In therapy we will focus on understanding how ADHD affects you and finding practical strategies that actually work in your life. The goal is to help you feel more focused, more organized, and better able to manage what is in front of you.

Monica M. Huston
Marriage and Family Therapist, LMFT
ADHD is not just about attention—it often impacts organization, relationships, self-esteem, and emotional regulation. I work with individuals to better understand how ADHD shows up in their daily life and relationships, while also addressing the frustration, shame, or overwhelm that can come with it. Our work focuses on both practical support and deeper understanding of patterns that may be contributing to difficulty.

TREATMENT AND TOOLS FOR TRAUMA
Licensed Psychoanalyst, PH.D., IN PSYCHOANALYSIS AND NEUROSCIENCE, CERTIFIED PSYCHOANALYST, PSY.A, & LICENSED PSYCHOANALYST
ADHD is most often identified through symptoms involving attention-deficit disorders and major hyperactivity. My approach to the treatment of ADHD involves understanding and treating mind and brain. I introduce weekly talk sessions, the use of supplements for anxiety and brain health, and the use of NuCalm technology (see NuCalm.com) for calming the sympathetic nervous system and bringing on the parasympathetic nervous system. I recognize that a diagnosis of ADHD also encompasses behavior/conduct problems, learning disabilities, and increase in anxiety and depression, difficulties with peer relationships, poor oral health and other health problems, and an increased risk of injury. You are welcome to call my office at 661-478-0667 for an evaluation.

Santa Ana is one of the most densely populated cities in the United States and has an overwhelmingly Latino population — predominantly Mexican American, with significant Central American communities — making Spanish-speaking and bicultural therapists not a specialty but a baseline requirement for meaningful access to care. The city's families navigate a complex mix of immigration stress, economic precarity, and the particular challenges of raising children across cultures, and therapists fluent in both language and cultural context serve an essential community function. CHOC Children's and the broader Orange County healthcare system provide institutional mental health resources, though access can be limited by insurance and immigration-related barriers. Telehealth has meaningfully expanded therapy access for Santa Ana residents who prefer culturally matched care over what is available locally.
