Getting to know Christopher Hooker

Hi there, I'm Christopher! Would you like to be able to be unshackled from things like guilt, shame, trauma, and feelings of being overwhelmed? You've come to the right place - I'm here to support you by finding hope and your inner strength My approach I have training in Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR), solution-focused brief therapy, exposure therapy, and acceptance & commitment therapy. I have a unique goal-oriented approach that pairs desensitizing, emotion regulation & goal pursuits together that, while hard to put into practice, work together to be effective for most of my clients. My focus I love working with veterans and first responders, working on processing traumatic events with the goal of continuing to serve. I also love working with people wanting to integrate Christianity into their therapy to better understand their relationship with Jesus Christ and His plan for their lives. Another passion of mine is working with survivors of abuse and other traumatic events through the use of eye movement and desensitization (EMDR) therapy to lessen the present pain, shame, guilt, and other feelings and to allow them to remain in the past. My communication style I take a collaborative, solution-focused approach to create a person-centered treatment plan to help you on your journey to rekindle your hope and process traumas and negative core beliefs that are at the core of many mental health disorders. My preferred modality is EMDR - Though everyone's treatment plan is different. My journey to mental healthcare I've always wanted to help people - From serving in the Army to trying multiple professions within the healthcare field. Counseling is what spoke to me the most, and I love helping people find their inner hope and inner strength. My goals for you We'll work together, setting small and achievable goals. We'll move as fast, or as slow, as you want or need to. I'll give you the space to process, and the push to keep going.
