About Chris
Chris uses a warm, interactive style in sessions. He aims to meet people where they are and treat them with respect and sensitivity. Conversations are tailored to each person's needs rather than following a fixed script.
In practice he blends client-centered work with psychodynamic ideas and narrative approaches. That means he pays attention to how a person's history and personal story shape present struggles. He also draws on mindfulness and solution-focused ideas when they fit a person's goals.
Sessions focus on practical changes and clearer understanding. Clients can expect to talk through patterns, test small changes, and reflect on how past experiences link to current behavior. The goal is steady progress rather than quick fixes.
Chris has long experience supporting people through life transitions, grief, trauma, and identity questions. He works with issues such as addiction, ADHD, body image, intimacy, and fatherhood concerns. If someone is ready to take a first step, he offers guidance and collaborative planning to move forward.

How his approaches guide online therapy
Chris often uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on your concerns and goals while the therapist listens without judgment and reflects what you share. This approach helps when someone wants understanding, emotional support, and a plan that grows from their own priorities.He also uses narrative therapy, which looks at the stories people tell about themselves and changes unhelpful narratives. That method can help with identity questions, body image, relationship patterns, and how past events shape present behavior.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Chris will collaborate with each person to decide which methods best match their needs, goals, and preferences. That means trying out ideas, adjusting the plan, and focusing on what helps in daily life.
Confirm the current session options before booking, since formats are not specified here. In general, online therapy can make appointments easier to fit into a busy schedule, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will work best for timing, session length, and how to build progress into everyday routines.
