About Christopher
Christopher Santos is an LPC (Licensed Professional Counselor) based in Pennsylvania. He helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem, and problems with motivation. He approaches each person with respect, sensitivity, and compassion to make the first step easier.
Christopher adapts conversations and plans to each person's situation. He focuses on clear, practical steps and straightforward talk. Sessions aim to build confidence, reduce reactive anger, and teach coping strategies for daily stress.
He also supports people facing relationship struggles, grief, intimacy-related concerns, and issues around adoption and foster care. Christopher works on attachment and abandonment concerns and on challenges that come from blended family situations or caregiver stress. He can assist with substance-related problems and help people who want coaching around career or parenting difficulties.
His approach draws from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, emotionally-focused ideas, mindfulness practices, and motivational interviewing. That mix lets him match methods to what each person needs. The emphasis is on practical tools you can use between sessions.
With three years of professional experience, Christopher combines active listening with goal-focused steps. He encourages small, steady changes rather than sudden fixes. The overall aim is to help people feel more capable and in control of their next steps.
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered work focuses on listening and responding to what matters most to the person. It creates space to talk through feelings and figure out priorities together. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change unhelpful patterns, which is useful for anxiety, mood, and stress management. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and understand strong emotions and how those feelings shape relationships and reactions.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christopher will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then try methods that fit those aims. That collaborative process helps refine what feels most useful over time rather than assuming a single path from the start.
Confirm current session formats before booking so you know how meetings will take place. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also let people use mindfulness exercises and homework tools in the settings where challenges actually occur. Licensed professionals adapt techniques like CBT and EFT to work well in remote conversations, helping clients practice skills between appointments and track progress toward clear goals.
