Chris considers it an honor to be invited into his clients’ stories. Ever since he was young, he’s had a desire to engage others on a deep emotional level. He marvels at the strength and resilience of his clients, despite their seemingly insurmountable obstacles and untenable suffering. Also, he has borne witness to what happens when his clients commit to doing the difficult and messy work of healing. It is rewarding for him to encounter his clients where they are and ultimately showing them the tools they need that will lead to integration and peace.
Chris is committed to life-long learning so he can offer those he serves the best care and support possible.
