About Christopher
Christopher Jackson is a Washington state Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) with 14 years of clinical experience. He works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy concerns, depression, grief, anger, trauma and related problems. He also supports people dealing with parenting strain, career stress, sleep or eating difficulties, and issues tied to gender and sexual identity.
His approach blends several practical frameworks. He uses client-centered work to listen and prioritize the person’s own goals. He draws on cognitive behavioral therapy to highlight how thoughts and behaviors keep problems going and to teach concrete skills. Dialectical behavior therapy techniques are used when emotion regulation and distress tolerance are needed.
Sessions are conversational and focused on real-life change. Christopher aims to make sessions straightforward and useful, with skills people can try between meetings. He pays attention to how past experiences shape current patterns and to cultural and identity factors that matter for each person.
He has particular experience with LGBT concerns, gender dysphoria questions, and alternative sexual cultures such as BDSM and kink, along with blended family dynamics and family of origin issues. He also helps people dealing with compassion fatigue, isolation, and life purpose questions.
People interested in starting are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a first session. Costs vary by location and use a subscription that can be canceled at any time.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches shape online work
Christopher blends client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavior therapy into online sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and clarifying your goals so the therapist follows your lead and priorities. Cognitive behavioral therapy breaks down unhelpful thoughts and behaviors into clear steps and teaches practical skills for anxiety, anger, and mood difficulties. Dialectical behavior therapy provides concrete tools for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness when stress spikes.Choosing the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work together with each person to decide which methods fit the current problem, goals, and preferences. That collaborative planning can shift over time as needs change and progress is reviewed.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, for example by saving travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. It also lets people use skills learned in session in the moment at home or at work and supports continuity when schedules change.
