Hello. I am Chris Carney and I've been in the field since 1997. I got licensed as a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in 2007. I grew up in a military family and lived overseas (Indonesia/Taiwan) and on both the East and West coasts of the US. As a result I have lived in and have emersed myself in a variety of cultures. A fun fact: I played in the little league world series overseas. I have worked with various populations and have a diverse background including people with trauma, crisis, depression, anxiety, grief and loss, relationship problems, adoptive specific problems and family dynamic concerns.
After spending time creating a well balanced, empathetic, transparent and safe relationship, I approach therapy from a person centered approach. I meet you where you are at emotionally. You are the expert and are in charge, going at your pace throughout treatment. I am a Competent Adoptions Therapist as well and specialize in issues surrounding adoption.
My clients often tell me how much better they feel in just one session; however that is typically just the beginning of their journey. Rapport building and listening to your story to best meet your needs is essential to create an effective treatment plan. I take the time it takes to build a trusting relationship and go at a pace that is comfortable to you.
