Hi, I’m Chris. My path to becoming a therapist wasn’t traditional. I earned my bachelor’s degree in music education from Utah State University and taught junior high music for three years before becoming a school counselor, where I worked with students from kindergarten through 9th grade for five years. These experiences showed me the value of having someone to talk to. I pursued a degree in Marriage and Family Therapy because I’m passionate about helping people grow and heal in their relationships.

I’m a trauma therapist who believes in the wisdom and capacity of the human body, brain, mind, and spirit. We are built with an incredible ability to heal, and I see therapy as a space to uncover and reconnect with that capacity. With experience in private practice, domestic violence, and crisis work, I offer a steady, patient presence for people navigating some of life’s most vulnerable moments. I don’t believe therapy has to be about forcing change or having all the answers. Instead, I want to help create enough safety and space for you to notice what is happening within you, trust what you discover, and see where it takes you.

Effective treatment begins with a thorough assessment—gaining an understanding of the challenges clients face increases the likelihood of meaningful progress. I recognize that many clients come to therapy feeling overwhelmed or hopeless, so my priority in the first session is to instill a sense of hope and introduce evidence-based strategies that make a difference. My aim is to provide short-term, effective, and engaging therapy tailored to each client’s needs. Many report feeling comfortable and supported after just one session, thanks to my gentle and kind approach.
