I'm Christy Hill, a therapist with a unique approach to psychotherapy in the beautiful surroundings of Southern California, specifically Irvine and Laguna Beach.
My journey into therapy began in Philadelphia where, as a fourteen-year-old, I started working in a television studio. This sparked my interest in communication, leading me to move to Florida for my bachelor’s degree in the field. After spending a couple of years in the industry, I recognized the importance of business acumen and decided to pursue an M.B.A in Atlanta, Georgia.
Post-graduation, my career took me to Charlotte, North Carolina, where I honed my skills in sales and analysis within the consumer products industry. It was during this time that I also started my own family, raising three wonderful children on the scenic Lake Norman.
My interest in human behavior, coupled with my experience in facilitating marriage enrichment classes and mentoring adolescents, led me to relocate to California in 2015. I returned to academia, earning a master’s degree in clinical psychology with an emphasis on Marriage and Family Therapy from Pepperdine University.
Now, I'm here to support you on your own journey of self-discovery, healing, and personal development. I believe deeply in the resilience of the human spirit and our inherent capacity for self-healing. My goal is to alleviate distressing experiences like depression, anxiety, feelings of isolation, and difficulties in interpersonal relationships. I see therapy as an empowering, collaborative process, and I'm here to guide you through life's inevitable challenges.
The therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance to me, and I strive to build a strong bond with my clients, recognizing this as the foundation for transformative change. While there's no one-size-fits-all approach, I aim to empower individuals to access their inner strength and resilience.
I look forward to meeting you in person and creating a comfortable space for you to share your story. Whether we're having a traditional session in my office or walking along the beach for our sessions, my goal is for you to feel at ease and valued.
So why not grab a cup of coffee and come see me? Let's journey together towards your mental and emotional well-being.
Warm regards,
Christy Hill, AMFT
