Testimonials

If you are looking to begin therapy, I highly recommend Christian! He is the full package – not only is he empathetic and gentle in his approach, but he also holds you accountable. He’s helped me better understand the way that I think and react to situations, while offering tools to break unhealthy patterns.

 

I’ve had a great experience working with Christian as my therapist over the last several months. He has helped me understand different ways to approach issues I’ve needed help with and has helped me think through different perspectives. He has always been very professional and encouraging and is a great therapist to work with.

 

I am so glad I found Christian. He has been easy to talk to and very helpful in helping me manage my anxiety. He has given me tools that I use weekly.  I finally feel more in control of my thoughts and I am very grateful for our weekly sessions.
