Welcome to Northern California Family Counseling & Wellness Center
We know that choosing the right therapy center is an important and deeply personal decision, and we’re truly grateful that you’re considering us as a source of guidance at this point in your life. With so many therapy providers and centers to choose from in California, we deeply appreciate the trust you’ve placed in us.
At Northern California Family Counseling & Wellness Center, we know that healing takes place in a setting where you feel truly seen, heard, and cared for. That is why we have created a safe, comfortable space where you can explore your feelings, thoughts, and experiences with ease. We are committed to providing empathetic, high-quality therapy tailored to your unique needs—whether you are dealing with trauma, relationship challenges, life transitions, or self-discovery.
Many of our therapists have firsthand experience working with first responders and veterans—not only professionally, but personally as well. Our team includes clinicians who are veterans themselves, spouses of first responders, and former first responders. This gives us a unique and culturally competent perspective that helps us meet our clients with understanding, respect, and deep empathy. We honor the complexity of your experiences and are dedicated to walking alongside you in your healing journey.
We understand that asking for help takes courage, and we invite you to feel empowered by the decision to begin therapy. Here, you’ll find a team of highly trained therapists who are passionate about helping you build strength, find clarity, and create long-lasting change.
We provide services both in-person and via Telehealth, and we have clinicians licensed or associate-licensed in California, Nevada, and Arizona to meet your needs wherever you are.
Our Story
Northern California Family Counseling started in 2018 and officially became Northern California Family Counseling & Wellness Center, inc in 2022. From the beginning, our founder, Christina Whitney, LMFT, envisioned a location that would symbolize peace, comfort, and acceptance—where individuals, couples, and families could be offered quality therapeutic services in a healing atmosphere.
As a strong supporter of mental well-being and a true believer in client-led therapy, Christina has dedicated her professional career to helping people navigate trauma, suffering, and relationship challenges. Her clinical focus centers on attachment and trauma recovery, particularly in the lives of couples and first responders. Drawing from both professional expertise and her own personal experience as the spouse of a first responder, Christina brings a deep, empathetic understanding to the emotional complexities of high-stress careers, relational disconnection, and healing from invisible wounds. She creates a space where clients feel safe, seen, and empowered to explore their inner world and restore meaningful connection with themselves and others.
At Northern California Family Counseling & Wellness Center, we are deeply proud of the lives we touch and transform. Whether you're beginning your healing journey or continuing on your path, we’re honored to walk alongside you every step of the way.
Thank you for thinking of us—we look forward to being a part of your journey.
