“He is absolutely amazing. I was so nervous meeting with a new provider after having my previous one for a couple years. He made me feel comfortable and heard as soon as we got on the call. He took everything I said seriously and didn’t question what I was going through but acknowledged it and again made me feel heard. I am so grateful. 100% recommend.”

“It’s so hard to find a provider (especially in psychiatry) that actually takes the time to listen intently, communicate clearly, and actually wants to hear your full background history. Even though he’s technically not a “therapist” or counselor, he still listens to your feelings and offers great advice. He’s never made us feel uncomfortable or embarrassed about our issues. Unlike the typical psychiatrists we’ve seen in the pasts, he doesn’t rush you along, act condescending, or like there’s other things they need to do. Despite him being so thorough, he’s somehow always on time for the appointment. Treatment plans make sense and are easy to follow and understand. My daughter’s first visit went so great that now the whole family sees him!”

appointment was ok. I was prescribed a med. he said he would have to write a note to my Dr because he doesn't have rx power. he messaged a few days after asking can he run my card for an additional payment since insurance wouldn't pay him to write the note. I told him not now on the 3rd because I'm on fixed income. haven't heard from him since. my pharmacy has reached out multiple times on rx question. he's unresponsive. So would I recommend? Maybe, office vibe was good. No contact after I told him I didnt have the money right then, no. Because of disparities in health care. Can't think of any reasons that a trusted therapist would abandon a client that wouldn't fall under disparities in health care.

Great experience. He was very nice and helped talked things through when I didn't even know the root of the problem. Would highly recommend:)

The doctor went above and beyond, making me feel good about myself afterwards even though I had just shared my darkest moments. I felt a lot of empathy and could tell that I was deeply understood. Great experience.

Christopher has a lovely demeanor. He is calm, warm and knowledgeable. I found him to be very relatable and therefore easy to share with. I didn’t feel rushed in the appointment at all, and he has been incredibly easy and responsive to reach both before and after the appointment. He uses a very user-friendly app (Healthie) for communication, much like messenger, which was super convenient for quick one-off questions. Forms were easy to access and submit through the app as well. I would definitely recommend him. no need to hesitate, go ahead and schedule!
