My name is Christopher Schell, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) based in San Diego, California, and working with clients statewide via telehealth and in-person visits. I work with children, adolescents, and adults and specialize in treating depression, anxiety, PTSD, acute stress, and various other client issues. My passion is to create a safe and nurturing space for personal growth and healing.
My approach to therapy varies based on the needs and expectations of each client. I am well-trained in the use of cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectic behavioral therapy, and well-versed in the use of narrative, solution-focused, and psychodynamic therapies.
My focus is to create a strong alliance with my clients to ensure that we have a mutual understanding of the best way to address individual issues and work together to achieve the best outcome.
