Meet Christopher

I consider myself comfortable as well as passionate about working with adults of all circumstances including a variety of ethnic, gender, age, and socio-economic backgrounds. I consider myself an empathetic clinician, mindfully present, and actively engaging. I am enthusiastic about helping people make and sustain changes in their lives. Being person-oriented, I do not tend to pathologize others, but rather collaborate with them towards their intended goal in therapy. I believe therapy can benefit all so I approach my encounter with others with respect and unconditional regard during its process.

Interests

I like going for walks, going to the gym for a little work out, and a lot of sitting in the sauna, that's my thing. I make time for some reading and meditation as well to clear my mind and stay focused. Family is important to me so is family dinner, one of my best times in the evening outside work.
