Christopher Pollock is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) who specializes in working with adults, couples, and LGBTQ+ individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. Clients often seek him out when they feel stuck in old patterns, disconnected in relationships, or overwhelmed by stress. With a warm, affirming presence, Christopher helps clients regain a sense of clarity, empowerment, and connection—whether they’re beginning therapy for the first time or returning after past experiences.
Christopher’s approach is relational, trauma-informed, and integrative. He draws from evidence-based practices such as EMDR, somatic therapy, and emotionally focused therapy (EFT), tailoring each session to meet the unique needs of the individual or couple. He is especially skilled at helping clients understand how early attachment experiences shape current dynamics and how nervous system regulation can support deeper healing. Grounded in authenticity, Christopher helps his clients feel seen without judgment and encourages insight, vulnerability, and growth.
He is completing his PhD in Marriage and Family Therapy, and his research has focused on the impact of harm reduction models and minority stress on LGBTQ+ mental health. This training allows him to support clients through both clinical symptoms and complex identity intersections with nuance and care.
Christopher offers therapy both in person and via secure telehealth for clients located in California. His main offices are located in San Diego and Palm Springs, making his services accessible to clients throughout Southern California. He offers weekday appointments and welcomes inquiries for both short-term focused work and long-term therapy. Clients can expect a safe, welcoming environment—whether they’re seeking individual support, working through trauma, or strengthening their relationships.
