Chris Nelson is a counseling intern in his final semesters of his masters program in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Northern Arizona University. Through his program experience, he has worked with many clients struggling with a variety of challenges.
Fred Rogers once said, “If it’s mentionable, it’s manageable.” Chris is committed to creating an empathetic, nonjudgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings with honesty and courage. His approach integrates research-based methods like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), and somatic processing. Chris works with teens, adults, and couples, using strengths-based, person-centered, and trauma-informed approaches to meet you where you are and support your unique journey.
Chris is passionate about helping people navigate life transitions and achieve their mental health goals. He hopes to empower you to better understand yourself, develop effective coping strategies, and continue to build a meaningful, purposeful life.
Everyone deserves a safe and nonjudgmental space to prioritize their mental health. If you’re ready to take the next step toward healing and growth, Chris would be honored to walk alongside you!
