About Christopher

He practices in New Jersey and works with adults who face stress, anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict, low self-esteem, and depression. Christopher also supports people dealing with codependency and related concerns like abandonment, attachment issues, and caregiver stress.
He uses straightforward conversation to help clients name what matters and make practical changes. Sessions focus on identifying patterns that keep someone stuck, learning clearer communication, and building small habits that shift day-to-day life. Christopher treats clients as the authors of their own stories and looks for strengths to build on.

His experience spans many clinical settings over more than two decades, so he can draw on a range of techniques that have helped people with chronic stress, long-term grief, and persistent low mood. He also has clinical experience related to autism spectrum differences, avoidant and dependent personality concerns, dissociation, and issues around kink and alternative sex culture.

How sessions work
How evidence-based approaches translate to online work
Christopher uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help clients change patterns and manage symptoms. One common approach focuses on learning and practicing new behaviors in small steps to reduce anxiety and improve daily functioning. This helps people who struggle with persistent worry, avoidance, or low motivation.Another approach looks at how early attachment and relationship experiences shape current habits. Sessions examine interaction patterns, teach clearer communication, and practice setting boundaries. This can be useful for people dealing with codependency, abandonment worries, or repeated relationship problems.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Christopher will work with each person to match methods to their goals and preferences, and adjust plans as progress is made. The therapist emphasizes practical exercises and short-term goals alongside deeper relational work.
