About Christopher

Christopher Andrews is an LPC with 18 years of experience practicing in Georgia. He began his journey studying at Georgia State University and developed a lasting interest in helping people manage life’s challenges.

Background and approach

Over nearly two decades in behavioral health he has focused on stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, and post-traumatic stress, bringing practical therapeutic tools to people seeking change. His work draws on evidence-informed approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), using structured strategies to identify unhelpful patterns and build coping skills.

Christopher blends active skill teaching with empathetic listening, aiming to help clients develop clearer, more intentional ways of responding to difficult emotions and situations. Outside of his professional role he is a native of Atlanta, lives in Georgia, and balances family life with outdoor activities.

He welcomes clients ready to engage in a collaborative process that emphasizes skill development, problem solving, and steady progress toward their goals.

Online approaches that teach practical coping skills

Christopher uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors through focused exercises and homework. CBT is often applied to problems like anxiety, depression, and stress by breaking issues into manageable parts and practicing alternative responses.

He also uses Dialectical Behavior Therapy to teach emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness skills. DBT can be especially useful when strong emotions or intense reactions interfere with daily functioning, offering concrete strategies to respond differently in difficult moments.

Finding the most helpful approach is a collaborative process. Christopher will work with each client to explore what techniques feel right, adjust strategies based on progress, and combine tools from different methods to match the client’s needs, goals, and preferences.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to increase flexibility and access. These formats allow clients to fit therapy into busy schedules, maintain continuity when travel or life events interfere, and use written or verbal communication styles that feel most comfortable.
