Getting to know Christopher Grasso

I am motivated by the idea that every human being deserves to be truly heard by someone they believe cares about their wellbeing. I am confident that through mindful and empathetic exploration in a safe and trusting space, many recurring and/or co-occurring somatic, emotional, and psychological difficulties may be better understood and processed in a way that facilitates a deeper understanding of ourselves and the environments in which we exist. I am an existential and humanistic clinician who believes that we are driven by our unconscious. Because of this, past psychological, emotional, and physical injuries may leave an imprint on our psyche that can continue to interrupt our lives and reinjure us unless we can see ourselves and our part in these injurious events differently. I hold a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology from Hazelden Betty Ford Graduate School, which has deeply informed my approach to healing and growth.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I come from a background of childhood trauma, abuse, and addiction. My journey began with a 9th grade education and homelessness as I traveled my road of happy destiny to a Bachelors and Masters degree with two professional licenses (LPCC & LAADC) in the state of California, and continues to unfold today. I have turned my life’s experiences into a place of wisdom and growth and have dedicated my life and career to helping others find the light in whatever darkness they are experiencing.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

I use an eclectic treatment style that includes many different treatment modalities such as Mindfulness, Bilateral Tapping, CBT, DBT, cognitive reframing, and MI. I have had the opportunity to work with many different socioeconomic populations from the homeless to the very wealthy with conditions ranging from addiction and obsessive disorders to depression and anxiety. They each come with an interesting and unique perspective.
