PSYCHOTHERAPY IN PUERTO RICO & ONLINE
A space to slow down, understand what you're going through, and find a more grounded way forward.
I work with people navigating anxiety, overwhelm, emotional difficulties, life transitions, relationship challenges, and addictive patterns.
My approach brings together psychotherapy, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and Organic Intelligence® in a warm, compassionate and integrative space.

About My Approach
I believe therapy works best when there is room for the whole person — not just the problem that brings you through the door.
I work at the intersection of neuroscience and spirituality, bringing together evidence-based approaches to emotional wellbeing with contemplative traditions that have evolved over thousands of years. I draw from psychotherapy, somatic awareness, mindfulness, and Organic Intelligence® to create an approach that is both grounded and open to the deeper questions of being human.
My perspective has been shaped by a lifelong interest in psychology, human experience, and contemplative practice. I hold graduate degrees from Stanford University and SOAS, University of London, and have more than two decades of experience with mindfulness and meditation.

Psychotherapy in Puerto Rico
Individual psychotherapy in San Juan and online.
After many years of living and training in Vienna, I’ve returned to Puerto Rico, where I work with English- and Spanish-speaking clients navigating change, difficult periods of life, and a desire to understand themselves more deeply.
Whether you’re returning to the island, living between cultures, or beginning a new chapter here, therapy can offer a space to slow down, look more closely, and find your way forward.
Pema Dragpa, NY
"Cristina is one of the most sincere, caring, warm-hearted people I know.
Yet in addition to being genuinely kind, she is also extraordinarily insightful and practical!
Based on years of meditative training and carefully studying the mind, I rejoice in anyone's good fortune to receive her compassionate guidance, learn from her dedicated perseverance, and enjoy the natural goodness"
Maia Sherwood, PR
"For me, every session with Cristina has meant real long-lasting transformation—I am not the same person and I do not exist in the “same place” after working with her.
Rather, I evolve significantly."
M.S., PR
"A session with Cristina is always rich, deep, and far-reaching. She brings in her whole self, which includes decades of meditation practice and knowledge about multiple healing approaches. Her presence creates a space that is protected and profound; the process feels almost sacred. At the same time, her unconditional acceptance and understanding provides a very liberating sense of intimacy. Her insights are extremely perceptive and often unexpected, opening unseen dimensions to oneself."
