More about Christopher

- LMHC
My approach is to offer a judgment-free space where you can openly discuss what is distressing to you. I have worked with people from all walks of life and enjoy learning about my clients’ backgrounds to develop unique ways to help them. I work with you to discover the best solutions for yourself rather than simply providing answers. From there, I help you explore ambivalence about change and challenge unhelpful thought patterns that may hinder growth.
