About

I understand that your thoughts, triggers, or compulsions are all unique to you. I know it can be extremely hard to share them. I make a point to understand each person's particular experience as well as I possibly can. I believe that we can only improve the ERP work we do together. A little bit about me: I love all things music! I also enjoy going to the gym and trying new restaurants.

Chris is everything I needed in a therapist. He made me feel less alone and gave me the hand I needed on this scary journey. Extremely knowledgeable on all things OCD. Incredible patience and a very warm kind person. I had complete trust in him and could tell he completely understood what I was going through. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Chris is a fantastic therapist. I never feel uncomfortable. It always amazes me that anything I tell him revolving around my theme doesn’t phase him. He always has a plan for ERP even when the triggers seem too big and scary.

Brilliant - professional, empathic and offered hope. He just seemed to ‘get it’. Chris wasn’t phased by anything I said. He also illustrated a plan which I believe will work. It’s hard to explain. I’ve received therapy via the NHS (the UK government health body) and it’s taken the therapists ages to get me. For Chris, everything I said came across as completely normal to him. This makes a huge difference. Thank you so much.
