About Christopher

Background and approach
Sessions aim to be direct and collaborative rather than long on jargon. His background includes a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from Flagler College and a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University. He brings eight years of clinical experience to his work and draws on several therapeutic approaches to match what a person needs.
Common topics he addresses include self-esteem, communication problems, impulse control, codependency, and sexual concerns such as sexual dissatisfaction or problematic pornography use. He also supports people facing attachment issues, problems after infidelity, and the emotional fallout from disasters or sudden loss. Clients can expect a mix of goal-setting, skill practice, and reflective conversation.
Christopher emphasizes motivation-building and practical strategies that can be used between sessions. He invites people ready to take small steps toward change to begin the process with him.
How Christopher Uses Practical Therapies Online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and responding to each person without judgment. It helps people feel heard and shapes the work around their goals and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches concrete ways to change patterns that cause distress. CBT is often used for anxiety, depression, and unhelpful thinking. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships and can be useful for impulsivity, mood swings, and intense emotional reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christopher works together with clients to try methods that fit their needs and adjust the plan over time. He blends listening, skill practice, and short exercises so people can see what helps and what to focus on next.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how work gets done. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and screen-sharing for worksheets. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or reduce bandwidth needs. Live chat and text-based messaging make it easier to check in between sessions or use shorter, frequent touchpoints. These options help people make consistent progress while matching therapy to their schedule and daily life.
