C​h​r​i​s​t​o​p​h​e​r "Chris" Moon, LPC

Christopher "Chris" Moon is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Michigan. He centers sessions on the person's goals and strengths, and uses clear, practical methods to help with stress, anxiety, addictions, self-esteem, career concerns, and depression.

Chris treats each person as the expert on their own experience. He helps people name the problems that feel biggest right now and decide on small, manageable steps forward. Sessions focus on practical skills and real-world progress rather than jargon or long explanations.

His background includes three years of clinical work supporting people who face substance use challenges, motivation roadblocks, and problems with confidence. He also works with people dealing with communication problems, drug and alcohol addiction, men's issues, and challenges common to young adults.

In session Chris blends straightforward conversation with techniques drawn from cognitive behavioral approaches, client-centered work, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. He aims to make sessions feel collaborative, paced to the person, and tied to daily life tasks and choices.

People can expect a supportive, no-nonsense approach that emphasizes short-term goals and skills they can use between sessions. Chris encourages questions and adjusts plans as people learn what does and doesn’t help them.

How Chris uses practical therapies online

CBT, or cognitive behavioral therapy, focuses on identifying unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and replacing them with more useful actions. It is often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems that come from repetitive thinking or avoidance. Client-centered therapy centers the person's own perspective and choices; the therapist listens, reflects, and follows the person's lead to build confidence and clarity.

These approaches are used together in a collaborative way. Chris will talk with each person about goals and try different techniques to see what fits. Together they decide whether to emphasize skill-building, motivational work, or shorter solution-focused steps based on needs and preferences.

Online therapy offers flexibility for people with busy schedules or limited travel options. Video calls allow a full face-to-face conversation; phone sessions work well when a quieter line or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing encouragement, or when someone prefers writing to speaking. These options make it easier to practice new skills between sessions and fit therapy into real life.
