I have two graduate degrees in the field (Behavioral Medicine/Health Psychology and Professional Counseling) and am a licensed behavioral health clinician in both Texas & California. My experience includes working with individuals and groups with a wide range of mental health, substance use, and basic counseling issues. I believe we all need help at points of our life and, if we are willing to ask for it, the support and guidance can be invaluable.
Hello! I am retired law enforcement and have over 35 years experience working with citizens and first responders in behavioral health crisis. I provide individual therapy for adults and specialize in crisis intervention. I believe people have the ability to guide their own path - they just need a map.
I’m Christopher Lewis, a Licensed Professional Counselor with a master’s degree in counseling & development and a bachelor’s degree in psychology. My background includes crisis intervention, individual, family, and group therapy, as well as supporting people experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, burnout, relationship challenges, grief, and major life transitions.
I understand that people can appear strong and capable while privately feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure of what to do next. My goal is to provide a space where you can be honest about what you’re experiencing, better understand yourself, and develop practical tools to navigate life’s challenges with greater confidence and resilience.
Reaching out for therapy is a courageous first step. If you're looking for a therapist who will meet you with compassion, curiosity, and a whole-person approach to healing, I'd be honored to support you on your journey. I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (LMFT) with a master's degree in Marriage and Family Therapy and five years of clinical experience. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel genuinely seen, heard, and understood. Whether you're facing a major life transition, struggling with anxiety, navigating relationship challenges, or simply feeling stuck, my goal is to create a space where you can safely explore what's happening beneath the surface and move toward lasting change.
Sometimes moving forward feels impossible when so much from the past is still weighing on you. Anxiety may keep your mind on high alert, depression can make it difficult to feel hopeful or connected, and grief or trauma may leave you carrying emotions that are difficult to explain to the people around you. I work with children, adolescents, adults, and seniors experiencing anxiety, depression, stress management, grief or loss, and PTSD. These struggles can also overlap with ADHD, bipolar disorder, panic, relationship or family concerns, LGBTQIA+ and transgender experiences, identity concerns, or other effects of trauma. You may be trying to understand yourself, regain a sense of safety, or simply feel more like yourself again. Therapy can give you a supportive place to make sense of what you have been through while building confidence in where you are going next.
