About Christopher

LPCC, LMHC licensed in Indiana and Ohio with 14 years of experience, Christopher Martin focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, grief, and self-esteem. He holds a Bachelor of Science in Psychology and a Master of Science in Counseling and Psychology from Troy University. Christopher works from a mix of well-known therapeutic approaches and adapts conversations to the person in front of him.

He emphasizes practical changes over perfect solutions. Sessions look at how thoughts, behaviors, and daily routines interact. Christopher uses strategies from cognitive behavioral therapy and dialectical behavior therapy to pinpoint patterns that increase distress and to build concrete skills for managing intense emotions.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and mindfulness practices are part of his toolbox. These approaches help people notice what matters to them and practice new ways of responding to difficult thoughts or memories. He also uses client-centered methods to keep the work grounded in each person’s goals and values.

His background includes work across a range of settings with adults and with people who have faced trauma, loss, and relationship strain. Christopher describes his role as collaborative - he talks with clients to create a plan that fits their situation and priorities. He also pays attention to the links between physical health and mood when recommending changes.

Practical concerns like communication problems, caregiver stress, fatherhood issues, workplace strain, and questions about life purpose are commonly addressed. For people dealing with guilt, shame, impulsivity, or isolation, he focuses on skills-based steps and steady progress rather than quick fixes.

How Christopher uses evidence-based approaches in remote work

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) asks people to notice thoughts without getting stuck in them and to take small actions that match their values. It can help with anxiety, low motivation, and rebuilding life after loss. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking and testing changes in behavior; it is often used for anxiety, mood concerns, and stress management. Mindfulness Therapy trains attention to present-moment experience and can reduce reactivity and rumination.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work. Christopher treats therapy as collaborative and will discuss which methods fit a person’s goals, lifestyle, and preferences. That choice can shift over time as needs change.

Confirm current session formats before booking, since formats are not specified in the biography. In general, online sessions can let people fit therapy into a regular day, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They also make it easier to continue work during busy periods or when getting to an appointment is difficult. Christopher will talk through which session rhythm and format make the most sense for practical life demands and clinical goals.
