About Christian

Christian Waller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people navigate trauma, anxiety, depression, and life changes. He focuses on practical steps that reduce day-to-day distress and supports people exploring sexuality and gender expression. Sessions are aimed at identifying clear goals and small changes that add up over time.

Christian earned a master’s degree from Augusta University in 2017 and has seven years of clinical experience. He has provided individual and group therapy to children, teens, and adults. His work often centers on processing traumatic stress and its effects on emotions, behavior, and thinking.

He draws from several evidence-based approaches and mixes techniques to fit each person. Christian emphasizes short-term and long-term goals as tools to track progress, and he welcomes adjustments to goals as needs change. That flexibility helps clients find routes that feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

Christian aims to treat people with respect and compassion whatever their background or identity. He talks with clients about differences and similarities so therapy can meet specific needs. He encourages straightforward conversation about what people want from counseling and how to reach it.

People who come for help can expect a collaborative style that focuses on real-world skills, emotional awareness, and clearer thinking. Christian invites prospective clients to consider what matters most to them and to begin with a simple conversation about goals.

How specific therapy approaches work online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying values and taking small, value-driven steps even when feelings are difficult. It can help people managing chronic stress, grief, or health-related life changes by pointing to practical actions that matter to them.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test new behaviors. It is often used for anxiety, depression, sleep problems, and everyday stress by teaching concrete tools to change thinking and behavior.

Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) emphasizes emotion regulation and skills for handling intense urges and conflict. It can be useful for managing strong emotions, improving interpersonal effectiveness, and reducing reactive behavior.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals, needs, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as progress and priorities change.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life. It may reduce travel time, allow quicker check-ins between in-person visits, or make scheduling around work and caregiving simpler. The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm current options before booking to know how sessions are delivered.
