About Christian
Christian Waller is a Licensed Professional Counselor who aims to help people facing stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and questions about sexuality or gender expression. He speaks plainly and aims to make sessions feel manageable for a worried parent reading on a phone. Christian emphasizes small, practical steps and clear goals so people leave sessions with something they can try right away.
He uses a mix of approaches to match the person in front of him.
Background and approach
That can mean working on thoughts and behaviors, practicing acceptance of difficult feelings, or focusing on emotional connections that matter most. He explains techniques simply and checks in often to see what is actually helping. Christian trained at Augusta University and has practiced for seven years.
He has delivered both individual and group work and has particular experience with processing traumatic stress. Over time he has also worked with anxiety, depression, OCD, sleep problems, parenting stress, and attention concerns. In sessions he prioritizes respect and compassion for differences in gender, sexuality, and life background.
He helps people set short-term and long-term goals and encourages flexibility when goals need to change. His style is collaborative and down-to-earth, focused on giving practical options rather than overwhelming lists of techniques. People can expect a counselor who talks through emotions, behaviors, and thoughts in ways that connect to everyday life.
Christian aims to make therapy a place for steady progress, one realistic step at a time.
How chosen approaches translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) encourages accepting hard feelings while committing to actions that match personal values; it can help with anxiety, grief, and life changes by focusing on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors influence each other and gives practical exercises to reduce symptoms of anxiety, depression, and sleep problems. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on identifying and shifting emotional responses to improve important relationships and intimacy-related concerns.Finding the right approach is a team effort. Christian will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan over time as progress and new needs emerge.
Online sessions offer flexibility across formats: video calls for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions for less bandwidth or hands-free check-ins, live chat for short focused exchanges, and text-based messaging for ongoing reflections between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, to follow up between meetings, and to choose how to communicate while working toward clear goals.
