Christopher Straface

I use a warm, caring, person centered, and a somewhat direct approach, in therapy to accommodate your unique situation and concerns while striving to work towards the goals you hope to achieve.

Using this approach, I strive to create a safe environment where you can share your experiences, connect with your therapist, and move toward help and healing.
