Christopher Bertiaux

My communication style

I prioritize clear, open communication to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment that remains solution-focused. I practice active listening and will give you opportunities to reflect on your experiences with you as a collaborative partner in your healing journey.

My journey to mental healthcare

I am an advocate for mental health recovery and participation in therapy because I directly benefited from it. As someone who found recovery from their own mental health challenges because of therapy, I found myself feeling called to help others achieve the same.

My goals for you

I am highly solution-oriented. If what I am trying for my mental health recovery isn't working, it's time to try something different. Clients will engage in treatment planning and goal setting in their first couple of individual sessions. We will collaboratively monitor progress, stuck points, or challenges, and adjust our efforts accordingly.

Our first session

An introductory session with me will focus on a holistic assessment that looks at different levels of influence, including medical concerns, mental health concerns, trauma, family, culture, relationship difficulties, any substance use concerns, education, work, personal interests, and strengths.
