I believe that you are the master of your own life, and I believe that therapy is a joint process that we can navigate together. I am not here to judge you or tell you how you should be living. I am here to help you develop the tools and understanding needed to create the life you want and meet your long and short term goals. I have a focus centered around the LGBTQ+ community, but also specialize in working with women's issues, anxiety disorders, depression, and grief. I have worked in crisis i...
I believe, with time, clients have the ability to find a resolution to any frustration they may have, and a strong therapeutic relationship can quicken this process. Throughout our time together, we will identify the changes that best suit you as you work to create the life you desire and deserve. If you feel like something is missing in your life, or you just want the help to make a positive change, allow me to partner with you as we identify the circumstances that aren’t working for you and...
My approach begins with the understanding that connecting with one’s self and others is a pathway toward finding meaning and fulfillment. This pathway of connecting can become blocked by old emotional wounds or current relationship struggles. The partnership formed in the therapy relationship becomes the platform where healing broken connections may occur. This approach can help bring about lasting change by getting at the ‘root’ of the problem and bring relief from symptoms. Central to Chris’ a...

I believe in equity, equality, and justice for all humans. You well be welcomed here and safe to be yourself regardless of gender, sexuality, race, size, and relationship structure. I am an unwavering ally for the LGBTQ+ community. I approach life, and therapy, from a trauma-informed, social justice, and anti-racist lens. I believe all humans are experiencing some degree of grief and trauma, whether from the ongoing stress of the pandemic/politics, and/or from personal life stressors. Many p...

I believe everyone is capable of living the life they dream of— or at least close to it! Each individual is unique and has a subjective reality to guide their behavior and thinking patterns. Once this subjective reality is explored and understood, including the manifestations of the reality and the roots that created it, the individual can challenge and alter it to create a new, more fulfilling experience. Therapy is a space for clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in an o...

Many mental health issues are related to a trauma response in the brain and body. Trauma is often conceptualized as one single event or experience that causes intense fear or distress. However, not all people who experience these kinds of events develop trauma symptoms, and many people who do experience trauma symptoms cannot identify a single event such as this. Another way to understand trauma symptoms is that they occur when an individual’s context overwhelms their nervous system’s ability to...
There is no specific criteria that determines who needs or would benefit from having someone to talk to. Therapy is a process.

EWOL provides comprehensive mental health therapy for adolescents(16+), adults, and families dealing with various concerns(anxiety, depression, life transitions, relational issues etc.). This personalized approach is designed to support individu...
Therapy is a space that allows you to identify what is getting in your way and learn how to move towards where you want to be. I focus on helping you build insight around your experiences so you can identify what changes can be made as well as what skill building can be done to create the outcomes you are looking for. I work with people who have symptoms from anxiety, depression, trauma or addiction by using a person centered approach that both validates your experience and supports you in the ...
Therapy is an opportunity for you to gain support while working through different issues, crises, and traumas as well as working towards achieving your personal goals. Together, we can really hone into what it is you are wanting for yourself and finding a path forward that best suites you.
