Approaches That Build Confidence and Reduce Worry
Christopher uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people change unhelpful patterns and feel more capable. One common approach focuses on identifying and testing negative thoughts. This helps reduce anxiety and negative self-talk by encouraging small experiments that show different outcomes. Another approach emphasizes skill building for managing emotions and improving relationships, teaching clear ways to express needs and handle conflict so interactions feel less overwhelming.
