Ethical. Clear. Direct.

You've Been The Strong One For Too Damn Long

You're who everyone calls.

Even when you're running on caffeine and resentment.

A woman overwhelmed and distressed in a crowded public space, hands pressed to her head, capturing the exhaustion of holding it all together.

You're tired, wired, and one small annoyance from losing it completely.

This looks like:

• Saying “yes” while thinking “hell no.”

• Rewriting the email five times before clicking send.

• Feeling resentful before the day even starts.

• Snapping at people you love.

• Doubting yourself when you’re the most competent person in the room.

• Sitting in therapy thinking, "It's been the same shit since I was 16."

You Learned Early That Being Easy Was Better Than Honest.

We're not making small talk.

We go where you usually pull away.

If you start to avoid, I'll bring you back.

We don't check out when it gets uncomfortable.

We say what you almost didn't.

This isn't about insight. You already know what's wrong.

This is about not walking out the same way you walked in.

Here's what actually changes

A woman smiling calmly in her kitchen with a coffee cup and laptop, children's artwork on the fridge behind her — reflecting the ease and groundedness that comes after doing the hard work.

You stop second-guessing every decision.
You set the boundary and sleep that night instead of replaying the fight until 3am.
You stop explaining yourself to people who weren't asking.
You stop apologizing for having feelings.

Not because you suddenly become mean.

Not because you finally figure yourself out.

Because You Stop Abandoning Your Needs Every Time It Feels Uncomfortable.

You need someone who's actually been in it

Hey there, I'm Chris. I know what it's like to keep showing up while secretly falling apart.

You don't have to have it all together. That's not what this is about.

21+ years in this work. Long enough to build a practice around the fact that insight was never the hard part. What works for you isn't going to look like what worked for the person before you.

I've raised three neurodivergent kids. I received my own ADHD diagnosis late.

There's more to this story. If you want to know who you're actually meeting before you schedule, the About Page is worth a read.

Ethical Badass™ Workshop

For professionals who know neutral isn't always the most ethical.

You were trained to be "a blank slate." Objective. Professionally distant. But sometimes the most ethical thing you can do is say the uncomfortable thing directly.

This is an introduction to saying the thing you've been talking yourself out of — without blowing up the room.

What It's Like to Work With Me

Clients tell me this is the first time therapy has actually made sense.

Not because I have all the answers.

Because they finally feel heard without someone over-analyzing or minimizing.

You don't need to overexplain yourself.

Clients usually notice they stop apologizing for what they feel.

Questions I Hear Most

Do you only work online?

Individual therapy and EMDR intensives — yes.

Online through a secure platform. No commute. No waiting room. No pressure to have it together before you walk in.

TF-EMDR® sessions and retreats are the exception. Those happen outside, in person, because that's the whole point.

What states do you work in?

I'm licensed in Pennsylvania and registered to provide telehealth in Florida and South Carolina.

For EMDR intensives, you just need to be physically located in one of those three states when we meet — which means travel is absolutely an option.

What makes your therapy approach different?

I show up as myself so you can too. No clinical distance. No careful neutrality. Just honest, direct work with someone who's actually in your corner.

What treatment approaches do you use?

Depending on what you need and what we're working on, I draw from EMDR, Brainspotting, the Unified Protocol, Parts Work, and EFIT.

I don't pick a method and apply it to everyone. I use what fits the moment and the person in front of me.

What does an EMDR intensive actually look like?

We start with some grounding to settle in, then we go straight to the targets we identified during intake.

No warmup small talk. No crisis-of-the-week detours. Three hours of focused work on the thing you've been carrying.

Can I do an intensive if I don't live in PA, FL, or SC?

Yes.

You just need to be physically in one of those states when we meet.

Some people travel specifically for EMDR intensives — it removes the demands waiting for them at home after heavy emotional work.

Can I do a single TF-EMDR® session instead of a full retreat?

All therapy service require an intake and follow-up; one, single session is not permitted.

Weekly TF-EMDR® is available Thursdays — 10–11, 11:30–12:30, 1–2. More slots and locations get added as demand grows.

How much does it cost, and do you take insurance?

• EMDR Intensives start at $1,800.

• Weekly Individual Therapy starts at $150 per session.

• TF-EMDR® Retreats start at $2,400 (not including travel, food, and lodging).

• TF-EMDR®EMDR® Weekly Sessions are $200 per session.

I don't bill insurance directly — Mentaya may be available to support out-of-network reimbursement.

Why do EMDR intensives, retreats, and TF-EMDR® sessions cost more than weekly therapy?

Different math.

• Weekly therapy is 50 minutes, ongoing, priced accordingly.

• EMDR intensives and retreats include a 90-minute intake before we start, a 90-minute session after to help you integrate, a workbook, and a self-care package.

• TF-EMDR®-EMDR®-EMDR® carries equipment, travel, and liability costs weekly therapy doesn't.

You're not paying more for the same thing. You're paying for different experiences.

Do I need a diagnosis — or even know what’s wrong — to start?

Not at all.

You don't need a label, a crisis, or a clean explanation. If you're burned out and overwhelmed, that's enough.

What if therapy hasn't worked for me before?

That's more common than you think. Most people who find me have already tried therapy.

The difference usually isn't the person — it's finding someone who actually hears what you're saying without over-analyzing it, minimizing it, or handing you a worksheet and calling it progress.
