About Chris
Chris Allen is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Georgia with 29 years of experience. He helps adults who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, parenting questions, depression, and anger. He also works with issues like addiction, trauma and abuse, grief, and identity concerns related to LGBT matters.
Chris uses a practical, person-centered style. Sessions are conversational and focused on the challenges a person brings. He listens for how past experiences shape current patterns and helps people notice what keeps problems going.
He draws on client-centered work alongside psychodynamic ideas to look at recurring themes and life patterns. Narrative therapy is used to help people rethink the stories they tell about themselves. Solution-focused and mindfulness techniques are added when a client wants brief, goal-oriented tools and present-moment skills.
In sessions Chris will talk through what led to the current struggle and suggest concrete steps to try between meetings. He pays attention to how relationships, family history, and attachment experiences affect feelings and behavior. People often leave with clearer options and simple practices to use day to day.
Chris has experience supporting people through major life transitions, parenting challenges, and long-term behavior change. He accepts international clients and works in English. To begin, clients complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial session to outline goals and practical next steps.
How sessions work
How his approaches translate to online work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and following what matters most to the client. In online sessions this often means a person leads the topic while the therapist reflects and clarifies, which helps uncover patterns that fuel anger or frustration.Mindfulness therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple grounding practices. Online meetings can be used to learn short breathing, body-awareness, and pause-and-reflect exercises that people can practice between sessions to reduce reactivity.
Narrative therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and their relationships. Working remotely, a therapist can guide someone to reframe unhelpful narratives and try new ways of describing past events and current choices.
Choosing the right approach is collaborative. The therapist will work with the client to match methods to their goals and preferences, and check in about what's helping as therapy progresses.
Confirm the current session formats before booking, since specific options are not listed here. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Those practical benefits help people add regular practice and reflection into everyday life.
