Christina C. Chituc, LMFT, is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Orange county, California, with a deep passion for helping individuals, couples, and families navigate life’s challenges. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Clinical Psychology from California State University, Fullerton, and a Master’s in Clinical Psychology with a specialization in Marriage and Family Therapy from The Chicago School.

Christina began her career in mental health in 2015, beginning during her internship with California Gang Reduction Intervention and Prevention program through the city of Fullerton working with children and their families, and as a Behavior Technician at Children’s Learning Connection, later providing behavioral therapy at Footprints Behavior Interventions. She completed her pre-graduate clinical training at Turning Point Center for Families in Costa Mesa, working with individual adults, children, and families, and has since held roles as a mental health specialist, lead clinician, and clinical supervisor.

Practicing psychotherapy since 2019 as an associate and since 2023, a licensed therapist, Christina most recently served as the Clinical Manager at Coastal Star Crisis Residential Treatment Center before joining Miramar Health in April 2024 in the same role.

With nearly a decade of experience in the behavioral health and addiction treatment field, Krystal Smith serves as the Corporate Admissions Manager for Miramar Health, where she leads with compassion, integrity, and a mission-driven approach.

Krystal began her career as an intake specialist and has since worked across multiple levels of care, including detox, residential treatment, PHP, and IOP, as well as Mental Health treatment. Her professional journey has been rooted in service—helping individuals and families navigate the often-overwhelming path to recovery. Through the years, she has developed a deep understanding of the admissions process from both clinical and operational perspectives, allowing her to bridge the gap between quality care and timely access to treatment.

At Miramar Health, Krystal oversees all aspects of the admissions process and plays a pivotal role in collaboration with our clinical, operations, and business development teams. She is particularly passionate about serving the veteran community and is a strong advocate for improving access to behavioral healthcare for those who have served. She believes that every veteran deserves to feel safe, respected, and supported in their healing journey—and she ensures that every interaction reflects those values.

Known for her calm presence, sharp attention to detail, and unwavering dedication to those we serve, Krystal is often the first reassuring voice our clients and families hear. Her ability to make people feel seen, heard, and cared for is what sets her apart—and what makes her such an integral part of the Miramar Health mission. When she’s not working, Krystal enjoys spending time with her family and creating meaningful memories with the next generation, staying grounded in what matters most as she continues her mission to serve others with compassion and purpose.
