Chris is an extraordinarily good therapist. He is knowledgeable, dedicated, and has a very calming presence. I would really recommend working with Chris. He will give you clarity on yourself and is not afraid to ask questions that promote self-awareness and cathartic breakthroughs.

I have worked with Chris for about a month, but I already feel like we’ve known each other a long time. He is very patient, kind, and accommodating. We have only started to delve deeper into what I need to focus on going forward, but I’m very confident in Chris’ expertise and feel hopeful for the future.
