My name is Christopher Rhodes. I speak English. I graduated with a Bachelors in Psychology from Flagler College in Saint Augustine, FL and a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University in Tampa, FL. I use cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, solution focused therapy, client-centered, and motivational interviewing techniques. I have experience working with individuals struggling with negative self-talk, low self-esteem, substance use, challenging irrational beliefs, anxiety, history of trauma, sexual dysfunctions, sexual dis-satisfaction, porn addiction, motivation enhancement and communication improvement.
It takes courage to seek a happier more fulfilling life and to take the first step towards change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.
I look forward to working with you soon!

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Chris was my first male therapist after 6 female therapists. I have problems with masculinity. Very positive, warm vibe. Listens and remembers what I told him in detail. It wasn't a long experience for me but a good one.
