About Christian

Christian Waller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with seven years of experience. He works with people on trauma processing and the effects of traumatic stress, and also addresses anxiety, depression, and questions about sexuality and gender expression.

He offers individual and group therapeutic services. Sessions focus on practical steps rather than long lectures. Christian emphasizes setting short-term and long-term goals to keep work focused and measurable.

Christian draws on a range of approaches when helping people. He uses elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to look at how thoughts and actions connect. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice uncomfortable feelings while moving toward important goals.

He also incorporates Client-Centered methods to listen and respond to each person’s concerns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed. Christian describes affect, behavior, and cognition as linked, and he uses that idea to shape practical exercises.

Christian treats people respectfully regardless of gender or sexuality. He frames therapy as collaborative and open to change - goals can be adjusted when priorities shift. For next steps he asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session through the online options button.

How Christian uses structured approaches in online sessions

Christian often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which helps people notice difficult thoughts or feelings and focus on actions that match their values. ACT can be useful for anxiety, stress, and making life changes.

He also frequently uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify patterns in thinking and behavior and to practice new responses. CBT is often chosen for anxiety, depression, and sleep difficulties. Client-Centered methods shape how sessions are run, with the therapist listening attentively and responding to each person’s concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christian will talk with the client about goals, symptoms, and preferences and then recommend methods to try. He treats this as a collaborative process and makes adjustments to methods as needs evolve.

Session formats are not listed in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, require less travel time, and allow brief check-ins when that is helpful. They also let people use strategies and worksheets during the meeting so skills can be practiced in real time.
