Great to meet you!

Hey, I'm Chris! I have almost 30 years of experience in the mental health field. My experience has ranged from dual diagnosis to crisis intervention. Throughout my career, I have primarily worked with adults with a focus in men's health.

My approach to therapy

I take a direct, goal‐oriented approach to therapy, helping clients identify what’s holding them back and take practical steps toward change. I work best with individuals who are ready to be active participants in their growth and are motivated to take control of their lives. Together, we focus on building insight, strengthening skills, and creating meaningful, sustainable progress.

What you can expect from me

Your first session with me is focused on understanding your priorities and getting you moving toward solutions. I’ll ask targeted questions to quickly get to the heart of what’s not working and what you want to change. Together, we’ll define clear next steps so you leave with direction, insight, and a sense of momentum. If you’d like, I can help craft a version that emphasizes your solution‐focused approach.
