About Christopher
Dr. Christopher Curtis helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, anger, and problems with relationships or parenting. He is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 20 years of experience.
He works with a wide range of concerns including addictions, trauma and abuse, LGBT issues, self-esteem, and coping with life changes. Clients can expect a calm, accepting space where they talk through thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. Curtis uses practical conversations to identify patterns that get in the way.
Background and approach
He focuses on building tools people can use between sessions to feel more stable and in control. His work draws on acceptance-based ideas and cognitive behavioral methods. Sessions often include mindfulness skills to help manage intense emotions and grounding techniques for stress and anger.
EMDR is also listed among his approaches for people dealing with traumatic memories. Dr. Curtis emphasizes collaboration.
He helps people set clear, realistic goals and selects strategies that match each person's needs. The aim is to give tangible methods for managing reactions, improving communication, and changing unhelpful habits. He also addresses specific family-related topics such as blended family challenges, fatherhood issues, and family of origin concerns.
He supports people dealing with social anxiety, smoking or vaping cessation, guilt, shame, and common young adult issues. To begin, listeners are encouraged to consider what they want to change and to bring that into the first conversation with the therapist.

How approaches like ACT and CBT work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or ACT, helps people notice their thoughts without getting caught up in them and to act in line with their values. It is useful for anxiety, stress, and living with strong emotions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, focuses on spotting and changing unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and is commonly used for anxiety, depression, and anger management. Mindfulness Therapy teaches attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and ease intense feelings.The therapist treats finding the right approach as a team effort. He will talk with each person about their goals and try out strategies that fit their needs and preferences. Over time the plan can change based on which tools are helpful and which are not.
Online therapy gives flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people work face to face from different locations. Phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is low or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow shorter check-ins, notes between sessions, and support that fits around work or caregiving schedules. These options make it easier to keep consistent momentum while trying practical tools and exercises together.
