Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists in Vancouver, WA

For many years I struggled with shame and doubt about who I was, often feeling lost and hopeless. I would exercise my feelings through control or passivity in relations with others. It wasn't until I received help from a counselor that I started my journey of healing that lead to my discovery of an authentic self who could practice healthy relationships, acceptance, love, and feel worthy from the inside out. At that point I chose to become a Counselor so as to assist others in their journeys of self discovery.

Hi! Call me "Chris." With 17 years of experience providing professional therapy to adults and teens, 14 of those years in a community mental health agency setting, and maintaining professional licensure since late-2008, I’ve learned to believe that adapting our point of view may contribute to welcome, positive changes! Every point of view seems learned from somewhere. Maybe we learned it from our parents, or grandparents, or teachers and professors. Maybe we looked to social media for our point of view. What if these learned points of view are holding us back versus moving us forward? Perhaps I may be able to help.

Hello, I am a Clinical Psychologist specializing in anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship issues. I also support clients with a variety of health related issues including pain, anxiety, and depression. Clients often express the invaluable support they have received from having a knowledgeable professional walk with them through their life and/or medical journey. I use psychodynamic and cognitive behavioral therapies to help you overcome the anxiety, depression, and anger that negatively impact your life, work, and relationships. I would be honored to join you in working to develop the life you desire to be living right now.

I believe people are innately good, need connection, purpose, and the need to be valued. Many times, fear or doubt get in the way of decisions to take risks. I am here to support, encourage, and help each client navigate their own specific journey. Helping people, couples, and families is why I choose to be a therapist.

I believe that clients and counselors partner together to work towards optimum mental health for each client. I believe in client involvement in setting and working towards those goals through a variety of clinical interventions with a focus on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR and DBT.

Accepting New Clients and providing telehealth-only services. What does it mean to prioritize your mental health? I ask this question to help shed light on one of the most effective ways to handle life's challenges and unresolved trauma. Therapy opens doors to unlimited possibilities, your ideal self.

The fear of the unknown is real and therapy allows you to traverse that journey with a facilitator, someone you can reach out to in a crisis.

You're overwhelmed by your stress & anxiety, and frankly by emotions in general. Maybe people tell you that you are too sensitive, and you believe them. You hate that you feel so much all of the time. To protect yourself you work hard to "be normal." You try to keep your emotions in check by numbing, or over-doing, or holding yourself back, or isolating. What you don't know, yet, is your sensitivity is your unique gift, and that all of your strategies have served you well in the past, but may need a bit of an update to support you better as life continues to change and you continue to evolve.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is unique and sacred. This is a space for you to feel safe and free from judgement to foster growth and change throughout many aspects of your life. I am here to assist in the process of self-discovery so that you can live the best life possible with circumstances that might be hindering you.

I have a great deal of respect for the unique stories of individual lives, and I strive to create a collaborative and supportive environment where clients can safely learn about themselves, develop new skills, and make real and lasting change. I try to help people not only reduce distress and suffering, but to also cultivate more genuine and fulfilling relationships with themselves and others. My primary areas of expertise include: stress management, mindfulness, anxiety and mood concerns, assertive communication, bicultural issues, performance enhancement, LGBTQ concerns, and adjustment, relationship, and identity concerns.

The most important thing you should know about me is that I am passionate about life. If you're ready to stop existing and start living. Allow me to help you resolve the issues that prevent you from reaching self-actualization and living up to your full potential. If you're unable to cope with difficult issues & want to make changes contact me.

Life can be overwhelming and feelings of insecurity, anxiety and pain can make it feel even more overwhelming. There are times that we need someone who can sit with all that we are feeling and provide a safe place to validate and hold space for all your emotions and experiences.
