“My husband and I cannot thank Chris enough for his support and encouragement in our marriage counseling. Our marriage is thriving now. Chris is an active listener and does not insert his bias. He allows us to be ourselves and open up without judgement or discouragement. He is warm, inviting, and integrates humor into his services to lighten the mood. He genuinely cares for his clients and makes you feel like you matter. He has excellent resources and tools to help you become successful with whatever your personal goals are

“Chris is incredibly laid back and disarming. At no point have I ever felt like I couldn’t open up to him about what was going on nor fear that I was going to be judged. Additionally there have been times in our sessions where he rightfully made me confront attitudes or insights that I was incorrect or wrong about. Note that this wasn’t done in a harsh manner but more of a firm acknowledgment that I was in the wrong. I’ve seen counselors and therapists who have been combative with me in the past and I’ve seen counselors and therapists who seemingly just agreed with whatever I was saying. Chris is neither of those. He’s more of a guide that’s kept me on the path to realizing what I needed to do or patiently waiting for me to come to the same conclusion that he had already reached. His SPECIAL method has been a lifesaver for me over the past two years and one I recommend to friends and family who find themselves feeling overwhelmed as well.
To summarize, Chris is absolutely the best. ”

Chris has a gift with people and made me feel comfortable and uplifted from the jump. You can tell he really cares about his clients.
It can be hard to trust someone with your emotions but Chris provided a safe space for me to work through things. He provided compassion when I didn't know how to give it to myself. Together we planned ways to overcome some of my struggles and he helped me gain the self esteem I needed to do so.
I think I have grown so much since starting therapy with Chris. It's been 3 years and at this point I won't see anyone else!
