Together with clients we set goals and work towards goals - together! I am here every step of the way so that clients walk away with action items that work for them.

If you're looking for support in navigating challenging life moments, transitions, leaving difficult situations, starting new adventures, setting boundaries, rediscovering who you are, or meeting yourself for the first time, I am here with a compassionate heart, non-judgemental space and creative passion to help you create the life you want.

I assist adults and adolescents grappling with symptoms of anxiety, depression, or trauma, as well as those feeling stagnant in life, identity, or career transitions, in cultivating a sense of calm, contentment, and resilience to navigate the highs and lows of life. I support my clients in healing emotional wounds and letting go of limiting thoughts and patterns so they can be their most authentic, healthy selves. If you are looking for someone to help you better understand your emotions, encourage growth in areas you feel stuck, and build awareness of how you are showing up in your life and relationships, we may be a good fit.

Hello! My name is Chris, and I'm a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate. I work primarily with teens, young adults, and college students. I believe in the power of warmth, authenticity, and an understanding that the most helpful spaces are the ones that you can show up in knowing that your identities will be welcomed, and your unique insights valued. I bring a background in school counseling, which I believe gives me unique insight into the challenges adolescents face. I focus on creating a warm and open environment through respect for your dignity and belief in your unique strengths and talents.

Does life leave you feeling weighed down by daily stressors and fears? Do you struggle with overthinking, trusting yourself, and accepting how you feel? Do you feel uncomfortable with expressing what you want or need in life? I understand that starting therapy with a new counselor can be daunting, and I recognize the significance of an ongoing relationship shared between a client and counselor. Clients can expect an open-minded, compassionate, and nonjudgmental environment in session with me. I intend to create an environment within each session that mindfully sets you in the direction of your goals.

I am a LGBT-affirmative ally. Licensed in California and Colorado. I work with those dealing with boundaries, shame, guilt, self-worth, self-regulation, trauma, family and relationship issues. If you were not taught to organize your thoughts and feelings while growing up, figuring it out on your own can be daunting. It is not too late to learn and strengthen these skills. Let’s figure it out together! Please reach out via email (best), text or voicemail as I typically respond within 24 hours by including a brief summary of your reason for therapy, when you would like to start & preferred weekly session time.

Would you like to work on your issues with mindfulness, compassion and curiosity? Those are the qualities we use together to work with depression, grief, anxiety and relationship issues. Becoming aware of and learning to work with one's inner critic is very helpful too. In general, counseling and psychotherapy are powerful tools that can help us to feel better. I offer a safe, supportive and calm place to explore your self and your life. We can use traditional therapy techniques as well as mindfulness or meditative approaches to start to feel better as well as to grow and change.

You did it! You took the first step, you opened your browser and asked for help.

I want to help take some of the unknown out of this process! If you choose to work with me we will focus on identifying the barriers that may be preventing you from healing from past trauma, improving your relationships, and achieving the quality of life that you desire. Together we will work towards removing those barriers within a safe and supportive environment.

As a therapist, I partner with the person I am working with and we collaboratively explore options that may fit your needs and bring you where you want to be, and how you want to be in your life.

If you are wanting to tackle issues such as Addiction, Codependency, Trauma, Sexuality, Unmanageable Stress and Anxiety, Gambling, ADD, Feeling Intimidated by a Life Transition ("What is next?") or Feeling Stuck and wanting to make Personal or Career Changes we may want to meet. I use Brainspotting, talk therapies, and a variety of other treatment methods like CBT, MI, & DBT.

I believe our unique relationships, beliefs and experiences shape who we are as individuals and provide the content for our personal stories. It is not uncommon to become stuck or feel hopeless; however, there is no one-size-fits-all solution to our unique challenges. Although you may be feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, exhausted, or plagued with worry, you have the ability and the inner resources to take the steps necessary to feel more fulfilled and at greater peace. I provide a space for my clients to tell their story while gaining insight and clarity for making the changes they want to make for healing and deeper connection.

I have been trained by Pia Mellody at the Meadows. I have over 3 decades of experience with individuals who are experiencing distress and shame because of addiction, codependency, and difficult relationships. I work to individualize the treatment according to your goals and what you want from therapy. I work to help understand and respect your world view and what might be getting in the way of your change. I have learned over the years to hear the stories of my clients and to work to understand them and the difficulty they are facing.

As humans, we are constantly growing and changing throughout our life span. While this can feel overwhelming and anxiety provoking, learning how to navigate that process while aligning with your most authentic self can lead to fulfillment and peace. I am passionate about supporting clients to make and maintain positive changes in their lives. I love helping clients find the tools and skills that work for them to live with more joy and the ability to overcome life's challenges.

My clients are generally students (GED to PhD) who wish to maximize their academic experience so they may boldly go where their heart takes them with confidence and enthusiasm. Students and researchers often struggle with mental health and academic performance in isolation - rarely reaching out for support. I help students identify and work through their challenges, build strategies for success, find their path, and thrive!

I aim to curate a safe space for my clients to be authentically themselves and fully human. As a therapist, I believe in the power of each individual to find the answers within themselves. In this way, therapy can be a mirror. I am passionate about working with individuals who are navigating disordered eating, body image, embodiment, gender identity, sexuality, shame, self-worth, spirituality and meaning, trauma, and grief. I enjoy using strength-based, somatic, and emotion-focused approaches.
