I greatly appreciate Chris's approach. He guides but doesn't push, and lets me find the path that works best for me. He's taught me a variety of techniques that help tame my anxiety, work through challenging situations, and manage my stress.

My therapeutic orientation is integrative and holistic, person centered and collaborative, strength based and present focused. I utilize an empirically based, multi modal approach, incorporating cognitive, behavioral, EMDR, existential, and mindfulness-based modalities in treatment to help my clients move forward, overcome their challenges, and develop new skills and understanding. I utilize research, experience, diverse training, and intuition, integrating an array of effective therapeutic interventions that will yield optimum results, tailored for the individual and the issues presented.
