Hello, I'm Chris. As an individual, couple, and family therapist, I have dedicated years to helping people find solutions to the difficult problems they face in their homes and personal lives. My approach is rooted in understanding and addressing the unique challenges each client brings, whether it's intergenerational trauma, substance abuse, or family conflict. I believe in the power of therapy to transform lives, and I am here to guide you through that journey with empathy and expertise.
I specialize in a wide range of areas including mood disorders, attachment disorders, and dual diagnosis. My proficiencies in Motivational Interviewing, Family Systems, Solution-Focused Therapy, and mindfulness allow me to offer new perspectives and practical solutions tailored to your specific needs. Whether you're dealing with anxiety, depression, or relationship issues, I am committed to helping you find the path to healing and growth.
My professional journey has taken me from Virginia to Ohio, where I have worked as a licensed clinician. I hold a Master of Science in Rehabilitation Counseling from Virginia Commonwealth University and a Bachelor of Arts in Religion from Milligan College. My experience includes working with foster children, families grappling with substance abuse and trauma, and individuals facing faith-related issues. Each of these experiences has enriched my practice and deepened my understanding of the diverse challenges my clients face.
In our sessions, you can expect a compassionate and non-judgmental space where your concerns are heard and valued. Together, we will explore your thoughts and feelings, identify patterns, and develop strategies to overcome obstacles. My goal is to empower you to make positive changes and achieve a greater sense of well-being.
Outside of my professional life, I am passionate about mindfulness and spirituality, which I often integrate into my therapeutic practice. These elements help create a holistic approach to mental health, addressing not just the mind, but the body and spirit as well.
If you're ready to take the first step towards a healthier, more fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out. Let's work together to find the solutions that will help you thrive.
