*Currently accepting new discernment clients* Satisfying relationships are an essential part of a healthy life. Relationships don't come with a user's manual and we're never taught how to work through conflicts. Whether you feel stuck re-enacting the same battles again and again or you’ve noticed a distance that keeps growing in your relationship, you can learn how to stop drawing the battle lines and move from drifting apart to coming together. Relationship problems don't get better on their own. I can help you create a clear vision for the relationship you want and help you navigate through the challenges you face.

Chris Loeckle
Clinical Social Work/Therapist, LISW
Verified
I have a very engaging and relaxed approach to therapy. Clients often report that they appreciate my authentic style and sense of humor. In any case, the process of therapy begins and is sustained as the client feels heard and understood and can begin to feel comfortable. I come to this work with a certain reverence for what is dignified, courageous, and creative in each of us which over time has informed my life both personally and in my work in supporting others. I rely on no particular therapy framework or "treatment modality" but nonetheless bring a pretty big box of tools to the table.

I work best with those who are interested in and motivated to deeply explore and understand their internal world in the service of lasting growth. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, grief, OCD, relationship concerns, family-of-origin difficulties, and feelings of isolation and disconnection. I also have a strong interest in working with individuals with marginalized identities who present with identity-related challenges, especially when living in a context that doesn't support- or actively works to oppress- those identities.

As much as it can be amazing and beautiful, life can also be frustrating, stressful, lonely, overwhelming, and hard to navigate. You want it to be easier. You want to not feel so stuck, worried, sad, alone, confused, lost. You want things to be better. You want to feel better. You want meaning and connection. You're tired of being afraid. You want to live the life you see for yourself, but can't seem to reach. Maybe it's hard for you to get out there, connect, and be part of things. Maybe you feel invisible.

As a generalist, Scott finds that he works from an integrative lens, naturally leaning towards a client-centered, strengths-based, and multicultural perspectives. Often, he likes to integrate aspects of Interpersonal Therapy, family systems, psychodynamic, and cognitive-behavioral theories with the bio-psycho-social framework. With extensive college counseling center experience (18+ years), Scott enjoys working with this population and understands the difficulties that often emerge during this transitional process (identities, relationships, self-awareness, etc.). Scott believed no concern is too big or too small to seek support.

Grief, death/dying, illness, and loss can be messy - cracking us wide open and changing our lives. It can be hard to find an equilibrium again, especially with numerous ideas about doing things "the right way" or because we don't have a space to just be human with it all. Likewise, being exposed to others suffering can present unique effects upon helpers, creating overwhelm, burnout, and distress. Many of us care deeply and want to feel good in our lives while living alongside some of the painful realities of loss or exposure to suffering. I'm passionate about helping people figure out how to do that.

Sometimes things just aren’t working. Some feel emotional or have a hard time connecting with others. Some struggle to make things better but don’t always have an idea of how. These folks want to feel better and be better. They want their relationships to improve. They want to accomplish their life goals. They have the awareness that things are not working out the way they would like but are needing more insight, guidance or coaching to help things flow better. They are looking for somebody to help them to find a better way, to remove obstacles or heal from old emotional wounds. Also get “Living Your Best Self” guide on my website.
