Hi there, How could I be of service to you? Throughout my many lessons taught and learned, I’ve realized that life is a school and earth is a classroom of many lessons. I’ve learned to cooperate with the ebb and flow of life and to co-create with the universe. It is my intention to align with other souls who are in a place within their life in which they aspire to grow and expand within. It's time to make the necessary changes in your life now. Reach out, I promise, you are in safe hands...

Stressed? Overwhelmed? Angry? Reactionary? Trouble in relationships - personal, professional, intimate? Feeling down or frustrated too often? Christian provides a professional, evidence-based approach to working with sub-clinical issues through a systematic hypnotherapy model.

The human existence is full of joy, pain, plot twists, climaxes and curve balls and I am here to be with you to reduce the impact of these events on your way of living; whether that means learning to make changes or weathering the storm. I am here to provide a space for my clients to feel supported and safe to explore their light and dark experiences, and am honored to witness my clients' journeys.

As a clinical psychologist, I am specialized in both psychotherapy and psychological/neuropsychological assessments and worked with a wide range of mental health related issues for people of all ages in multiple treatment settings. However, I currently only offer psychotherapy for adults through telehealth. My areas of focus include but are not limited to working with persons experiencing life transitions, issues of self-esteem, and learning how to cope with stress, trauma, grief, and loss.  My theoretic approach is psychodynamic and is tailored to the unique needs of the patients I work with.

Everyone faces challenges in their lives that may cause stress, concerns, or behaviors that lead to a desire for change. In these times of transition it can be helpful to have a guide who is not a family member or friend; someone who can help by offering new ideas & help to create concrete goals to move toward positive change. My intent is to facilitate that process. I believe in addressing the “whole person”: mentally, physically, emotionally & spiritually, in ways that fit you & your needs because it's You, by Us.

Accepting New Clients. Therapy is a journey that allows a person to become the best version of themselves through building on strengths and challenging beliefs that do not serve them.

Together, we can find a pathway toward enjoying life again.

I have been practicing psychology in Washington State since 2009.

We are a clinic located in Renton with in person and virtual appointments with openings for children, teens, couples and adults who live in or near Renton and would like to use their insurance. People come to RCC to improve their mental health, increase life satisfaction, and gain self-awareness. The human experience is a complicated one and most of us, at one time or another have found ourselves overwhelmed. When we respond to life's struggles in ways less than successful, we may experience depression, anxiety, or other symptoms.

My approach to Mental Health Counseling is to view the client as expert in their own life. I do not play the role of expert in my client's lives. I do, however act as a guide, advocate, educator, and support person. What I will do is attempt to see your issues from your perspective and your view of the world. I work within the framework of Person-Centered Therapy, which focuses on the client being the expert, Existential Therapy, which focuses on behavior and looks at how the client thinks, feels, and behaves and the impact they have on others.

For over 15 years, I have been a practicing mental health professional and professional coach with a specialization in social justice counseling, hypnotherapy and expressive arts therapy, specifically narrative, poetry and restorative yoga.
