I work with couples and individuals who want to improve their love relationship or marriage while enhancing personal well-being.
I support parents in being able to find balance among parenting, career, family, and self-care. I tend to parents, so parents can tend to themselves.

About Cristina Trette
I offer counseling, coaching, and education in a private practice setting located within The Soul of Yoga in Encinitas, California. I work primarily with couples and individuals who want to improve their marriage or love relationship while embarking on a process of personal growth. I also focus on working with parents who are struggling with the transition to parenthood, are facing challenges with their kids, or those who want to create more work/life balance and fulfillment.
I addition to counseling couples and parents, I offer individual counseling for adults and teens. Common areas addressed include blended family concerns, co-parenting, coping with divorce, managing high stress, anxiety, depression, substance use, and a healing from a history of trauma or conflict.
I believe we all have the capacity to thrive. When encountering challenge and struggle in life, this can be an invitation to grow in mind, emotion, body, and spirit individually and relationally.
I have a Master's Degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from The University of San Diego. I have completed the first level of training in Emotionally Focused Couples Therapy and I am in process of receiving advanced training in the model.
I also provide education and coaching. I am passionate about bringing relationship education to couples. I am the Co-Founder of Elevating Connection, which is focused on teaching couples how to improve intimacy, connection, and communication. I am a Joy of Parenting Instructor and have training in Redirecting Children's Behavior. I received my Coach certification through Your Infinite Life Training and Coaching Company.
Previously, I provided services in the transformational recovery program at Shakti Rising which is an organization in San Diego supporting women who are overcoming addictions, trauma, and abuse. Prior to that, I provided counseling at High Tech schools to children between the ages of 5 and 18, and their parents.
