Chris started off as one of my favorite therapists. However, after working with them for years, they were unable to separate their feelings from my opinions and started to use the same abusive tactics that I was trying to work with them on that had been used on me by an ex partner. Chris was unwilling to work with me, provide solutions, or alternatives. There were times where they would tell me they would do things in writing snf the next week would deny ever having said those things. I could not recommend Chris in good conscious to anyone working on themselves.
