About Christopher

Christopher Rhodes is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in Florida who helps people navigate stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction, and difficulties with intimacy. He also supports people coping with life changes, compassion fatigue, and issues tied to identity and sexuality. Christopher speaks English and works with clients who want straightforward, practical help.

He blends several approaches to meet each person's needs. Sessions focus on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and building skills to manage emotions and urges. He draws on client-centered conversations to understand what matters most to the individual. Motivational interviewing ideas are used to boost readiness for change and set realistic goals.

Christopher has eight years of clinical experience and a background in psychology. He holds a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Nova Southeastern University and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Flagler College. This experience includes working with trauma, sexual concerns, substance use, and communication problems.

In sessions, he keeps the focus on practical steps. People learn tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior approaches, and practice mindfulness skills to reduce reactivity. He aims to make therapy clear and useful, not confusing or overwhelming.

Christopher invites clients who are ready to take action toward change. He encourages people to start with a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that suits them. The goal is steady progress through small, manageable steps.

How Christopher uses therapy approaches online

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on open, nonjudgmental conversation. The therapist listens closely and helps the person name priorities and strengths to guide sessions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts influence feelings and behavior and teaches practical techniques to change unhelpful patterns. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, offers clear skills for regulating emotions, tolerating distress, and improving communication.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Christopher works together with each person to decide which methods fit best for their needs, goals, and preferences. That collaboration can mean mixing skill work, mindfulness practice, and motivational techniques to match what is most useful.

The biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm available options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow quick check-ins between appointments. Some approaches translate well to remote work - for example, CBT worksheets, DBT skills practice, and client-centered conversations can all be adapted to an online setting. Ask about formats and scheduling when you match to arrange sessions that work with your routine.
