Women's Issues
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!

Emily Echeverria
Marriage and Family Therapist, Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, MS
I love working with women, especially women of color. When working with women, I try to understand both the client's unique experience and the greater societal factors that often impact a woman's mental health. I work with women struggling with many issues including anxiety and depression, parenting, codependency, body image, sexual abuse, and relationship violence. I also work with many high-achieving, successful women who are struggling with anxiety, self-esteem, perfectionism, shame, and relationship issues.

Women often navigate complex expectations around relationships, identity, work, and self-worth.

10 Years Experience
Online in Santa Ana, CA California (Online Only)
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.
