How Christopher works
Addiction and end-of-life concerns are within his practice scope as well. Christopher uses tools from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Narrative Therapy to guide sessions. That might look like noticing unhelpful thoughts, practicing small behavioral changes, or revisiting personal stories to find new meaning.
He explains techniques in plain language and works at a pace that fits each person. Sessions aim to build clearer choices rather than quick fixes. Christopher helps people notice what matters most and take manageable steps toward it.
He invites open talk about feelings and the practical problems that get in the way. People who want straightforward guidance and steady support often find this approach useful. Christopher encourages realistic goals and steady progress, and he stays focused on what will help in day-to-day life.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches that fit online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and then take actions that match their values. It often helps with anxiety, low motivation, and life purpose struggles by teaching practical exercises to move toward what matters.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the link between thoughts, feelings, and behavior. It uses straightforward techniques to challenge unhelpful thinking and to test new behaviors, which can reduce stress, depression, and relationship friction.
Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. Reframing those stories can open up different choices and lessen shame, guilt, or feelings of emptiness.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose techniques that match their goals, needs, and preferences. That may mean combining elements from several approaches and adjusting as progress is made.
Online therapy with Christopher uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging so people can fit sessions into busy lives. Video is useful for deeper conversations and visual cues, phone calls work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be a shorter check-in or a way to reflect between sessions. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, caregiving, or other routines.
