We're Here to Listen
Our number one goal is to help people find wholeness. We believe that all areas of health-- mental/emotional, spiritual, and physical--are connected. If one area is unhealthy, the other areas will suffer.
Our experience enables us to offer effective psychological care at an outpatient level. We treat a number of mental health concerns through individual therapy and neuropsychological assessment.
Our focus is to provide the tools to help overcome life's challenges, and to walk alongside you in your journey toward health and wellness.
We promise to create a safe, affirming, and nonjudgmental space for you. Our goal is to help you grow from your experiences, and move forward to where you want to be in your life.
We provide comprehensive, neurodivergent affirming psychological and neuropsychological assessment batteries for people of all ages seeking clarification around possible neurodivergence including (but not limited to) autism, ADHD, sensory processing challenges, etc.

We are best known for our comprehensive assessment batteries. For a comprehensive assessment, a typical schedule would be a 2-hour intake, 8-12 hours of test administration, and a 2-hour feedback session. We also bill for administrative services including scoring assessments and writing a comprehensive report. The administrative process typically takes an additional 8-12 hours. Shorter batteries can be conducted as deemed appropriate.
Growing up and navigating life's challenges is hard as it is, but when you live in a world that wasn't designed for the way your brain works, it can sometimes feel impossible. We offer a neurodivergent affirming approach to help you learn how to both accept and manage your neurodivergence in a way that works best for you. We work with anyone who has been formally diagnosed, is self-diagnosed, or who otherwise identifies as neurodivergent, including autism, ADHD, OCD, sensory processing disorder, etc. If you are interested in formal assessment/diagnosis, we offer comprehensive evaluations as well.
Many individuals experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, anger, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger, even long after a traumatic event has ended. We can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing.
It can be very difficult for children and teens to express themselves appropriately. Oftentimes this comes out through anger, aggression, defiance, drug use, poor grades, depression, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, disordered eating, and anxiety. We can help children and parents identify the root of problems, and improve communication with one another to address concerns in a healthy and productive way.
We are a fully-virtual clinic offering Telehealth services only. We have made this decision for many reasons:
Dr. Christina Stai is a late/self-diagnosed neurodivergent (AuDHD) licensed clinical psychologist. She received her doctorate in Psychology from Azusa Pacific University, an APA accredited school near Los Angeles.
Dr. Stai was trained in a systems-based approach, which emphasizes learning about others within their different systems (family, friends, school, work, faith, etc.). Dr. Stai works systemically by establishing collaborative relationships with parents, family, schools, medical doctors, psychiatrists, and any other part of a client’s “team” that is deemed to be appropriate.
Dr. Stai approaches all cases from a holistic framework, focusing on the core elements that make us human: body, mind, and spirit.
We are looking to bring on additional providers to our practice!

Dr. Stai talks about the importance of putting a holistic perspective into action. This is best achieved by collaborating with other disciplines and professions in order to help our clients achieve optimal healing.
In this video, we discuss the three components—body, mind, and spirt-- that make up our total health approach, and why we believe it is important to treat a person holistically.
In this video, we talk about the vision behind Holistic Resources and how we first got started.
