About Christopher
With six years as an LCSW and more than a decade in the mental health field overall, he has helped people with depression, anxiety, stress, and parenting concerns. He also works with issues such as ADHD, career changes, grief, trauma, and compassion fatigue. Jealousy appears among his areas of focus, and he will address it alongside relationship and attachment concerns when relevant to an individual's goals.
Christopher uses approaches that emphasize the relationship in therapy. He draws from client-centered methods to build trust and from attachment-based ideas to understand recurring patterns in relationships. He also uses practical tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and skills from dialectical behavior therapy to manage emotions and change unhelpful habits.
Sessions aim to be collaborative and down-to-earth. Conversations focus on real problems, clear steps people can try between sessions, and steady progress toward personal goals. Christopher treats each person with dignity and avoids stigmatizing labels.
People interested in beginning work complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions based on availability. He practices in Montana and conducts sessions in English.
Using attachment and practical therapy online
Christopher works from client-centered and attachment-informed perspectives that emphasize understanding how past relationship patterns affect current feelings and behavior. Client-centered therapy focuses on building a respectful, nonjudgmental relationship so people feel heard and can identify their own goals. Attachment-based ideas help make sense of persistent worries about closeness, trust, or jealousy and guide work on changing those patterns.He also uses cognitive behavioral techniques to spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior, and dialectical behavior skills to teach emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Together these approaches give practical tools as well as space to understand how difficult feelings began. Choosing the right mix of methods is a collaborative process and the therapist will work with each person to match approaches to their goals, needs, and preferences.
If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session options before booking since session formats are determined by the practice. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also lets people use tools learned in sessions in their everyday settings, which can speed up practical progress.
