Let's Journey Together
on the way to live your best life
Hi, I'm Chris!
I have over 15 years of experience in clinical psychology, with over 10 of those as a licensed psychologist. I've worked in community mental health, substance abuse centers, a holistic retreat center, and an organization providing psychotherapy and psychological testing, before starting my private practice in 2020. ​
​
I also strive to live by my highest values and consider myself a mindfulness practitioner, a straight LGBTQIA+ ally, advocate for social justice, and eco-sustainability enthusiast.

Main Appraoches
​​
ACT: ACT focuses on helping people accept their thoughts, rather than fighting against them. Promoting psychological flexibility, this approach encourages commitment to values and taking action to enrich life, even in the presence of discomfort.
Mindfulness: Mindful therapy focuses on being present and fully engaged in the moment, helping individuals to explore their thoughts and feelings without judgment. By incorporating mindfulness techniques, my clients can gain a deeper awareness of their emotions and learn not to be in resistance to the circumstances around them. This approach encourages self-reflection and promotes healthier coping strategies.
​
Transpersonal: Transpersonal therapy takes into consideration spiritual experiences and beliefs. It emphasizes personal growth and self-exploration, guiding clients to delve into their own sense of meaning-making. By addressing both psychological and spiritual dimensions, transpersonal therapy seeks to facilitate healing, improve well-being, and cultivate a stronger sense of purpose and meaning in life​​​
