Chris is very caring and compassionate. He has provided great support during my therapies." "I've seen about 5 therapists before finding Christopher. He is by far the best I have seen. He has helped me to understand the root cause of my reactions and help to try and manage them. He is an excellent listener but also helps me to focus on what the real issue is when I tend to muddle it up into a cloud of chaos. One thing I have liked about speaking with Chris is that he's the first therapist I have seen that was also vulnerable to me, he doesn't feel like he is just doing his job he feels like he wants to be there every week to talk with me and help me feel better.
