Thomas Christiansen, PhD, is a dedicated psychologist who believes in the power of C.H.A.R.T. to guide individuals towards a brighter future. His approach emphasizes that change can be challenging and often frustrating - feelings that lead many to seek therapy when they feel stuck or hopeless. Thomas rekindles hope, illustrating that positive changes are achievable through hard work and perseverance. He fosters a culture of affirmation, which promotes a better outlook and combats self-criticism, thereby providing crucial momentum in the therapeutic journey. Recognizing that change often comes with setbacks, he prepares clients to manage expectations, allowing them to stay on course and build resilience as they navigate their unique challenges. As clients begin to thrive, they discover unexpected growth and learn to identify and address barriers along their path. With over 25 years of clinical experience, Thomas works with a diverse range of populations, from young children and their families to seniors. He identifies three essential elements in the therapeutic process: developing a strong therapeutic alliance, effective case conceptualization, and crafting individualized interventions tailored to each client's needs.
