I was curious about which therapist I’d be matched with, but I can’t fault Chris at all, I've left every session feeling like there’s been good progress. Chris is very understanding, a good listener and provides good insight into my situation. I would highly recommend him for sure!

More about Chris

  • 6 years' experience

  • NCPS

I have undertaken extensive training to become an Integrative Counsellor, which means I am able to draw on a range of different therapeutic models during the course of therapy. Counselling with me will involve authentic communication in which you will feel that you are being listened to and understood.  In time, as you become secure in our therapeutic relationship, you will hopefully become more comfortable and find it easier to go deeper. Together, we will explore some of your past and present hurts and traumas and hopefully process them in a way that will bring healing in a lasting way. 

More in-depth.

I have been trained as a REMA therapist, and as such believe that we are;

Relational

- As human beings we are deeply relational; being attuned with ourselves, others and the environment is key to healthy living.

Embodied

- Our mind, emotions, spirituality and sexuality are all contained within a human body and when one or more of these aspects are in turmoil, it can affect us in a very real and physical way. It is important to pay attention to what our body might be telling us.

Meaning-Making

- As humans, we strive for meaning and when life feels meaningless, we are bound to hopelessness. It is important that we process life events and allow meaning to be found.

Agentic

- Self-awareness lies at the very heart of what it means to be agentic. Unless we know why we do what we do, we can not have any control over what we do. If we have no control, we can not choose; if we can not choose, we are mere spectators. Ever get angry or frustrated and then wonder why? Proper reflection and processing of our actions will allow for growth in self-awareness, in turn resulting in becoming truly agentic.

Often when we get stuck in life and find ourselves needing help, it will be due to something not being right in one or more of these aspects of ourselves- often due to trauma, whether it be recent or in childhood. As your counsellor it would be my aim to journey with you and through authentic communication and the use of therapeutic techniques, bring healing to these aspects- hopefully leaving you feeling more balanced and whole as a person!

About online counseling

Affordable.
Pay a low flat fee.
Convenient.
Do it at your own time and at your own pace. Communicate whenever you feel it's needed.
Available now.
There is no waiting list and no calls to make. Simply fill out a short questionnaire and send your first message.

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.

I've been keeping to myself the primary reason I'm looking for therapy right now, choosing to talk about my past in general instead of more pertinent recent events. While I had considered my past well-tread territory, he has nonetheless drawn some very useful conclusions out of me that are even looping around to being relevant to my original reason for seeking therapy. I'm so far very impressed, and look forward to continuing to work with him.
