Getting to know Christopher John Anderson

Does it feel like your mind is dragging you down the street sometimes? Thinking has so many undeniable benefits, yet the human mind can often feel like more of a tyrant than an advocate. With a Master’s in Clinical Counseling from St. Edward’s University, I understand the complexities of the mind and am dedicated to helping you transform that inner tyrant into a supportive guide.

What should a new client know about working with you?

I use a mindfulness-based and psychodynamic approach to help clients develop a healthier relationship with their own thinking, so they can begin addressing unprocessed emotions and traumas, and start taking more healing, nourishing, and productive actions in their lives.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

Sessions always begin with the client's most pressing concerns. First we identify helpful strategies to immediately reduce the client's suffering, then we begin looking more deeply at the client's lived experience to better understand the underlying sources of that may be causing that suffering. We take a two-sided approach to healing. One side is to develop a targeted menu of helpful, mindful actions client's can take at any time to address moments of overwhelm right away. The other side is to continue looking deeply at the client's lived experience to better understand the underlying conscious and unconscious elements that may be causing these recurring challenges in the client's life. Armed with this deeper understanding, client's can begin processing related trauma and internalized narratives until they are no longer overwhelming.
