Great to meet you!

My career began in 1990 as a Hospital Corpsman or United States Navy medic where I was also an EMT and pharmacy tech, administering physician ordered treatments and providing healthcare education. Helping others from all over the United States and the world motivated me to start a career in psychology which I studied for my undergraduate degree at the Ohio State University after being honorably discharged from the service.

A bit about my approach to therapy

I will work with you by helping you feel comfortable to share important details with me about your experiences in the past with mental and physical health and wellness. From the information you share, we will explore how medications, psychotherapy or both could really make the biggest difference in your life.

What you can expect from our first session

From attending my sessions you will have a clear direction about how to best proceed to begin the path of feeling like the possible self that you ever experienced or will experience.


Christopher's style is

Open-minded
Empowering
Warm
