Background and approach
He works both short term and longer term depending on what a person needs. Holistic wellbeing is part of his approach, so lifestyle and values often come into the conversation. His background includes a Master’s in Counseling Psychology and a Master of Divinity in Pastoral Care and Counseling.
That combination informs a blend of psychological and spiritual perspectives when clients want that integrated view. He brings three years of professional counseling experience to the work.

Chris often helps clients identify small changes that make day-to-day life feel more manageable.

Online support
Approaches that guide online sessions
Christopher uses the Gottman Method to look at communication and interaction patterns in relationships, helping people learn specific skills to reduce conflict and improve connection. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is used to help people notice difficult thoughts and focus on moving toward a valued life, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, and life transitions. Attachment-Based Therapy explores early relationship patterns and how they show up now, which can help with trust, closeness, and recurring conflicts.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and day-to-day realities and recommend methods that fit those needs. Decisions about techniques are made collaboratively, and approaches may be adjusted as progress is reviewed.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skills practice, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, live chat can be a quicker check-in, and messaging supports ongoing, shorter exchanges. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, and travel.
