Chris Fischer, LPC

Chris Fischer is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Texas with 20 years of experience in the mental health field. He works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, trauma and abuse, grief, addiction, ADHD, and intimacy-related or relationship concerns. He also addresses parenting and family stress and has experience with caregiver strain and chronic illness concerns.

He uses practical, evidence-informed methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is one of the approaches he draws on, alongside Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). Sessions focus on concrete skills, behavioral experiments, and clearer communication patterns rather than abstract talk.

Chris has worked in Texas for over a decade and in other states before that. That background includes helping people after traumatic events, supporting victims of crime, and working with those managing mood disorders and crises. He brings two decades of clinical experience to common problems such as low self-esteem, anger, and complicated grief.

In practice he builds treatment plans around specific goals. That can mean tracking thoughts and behaviors, practicing emotion-regulation skills, or learning ways to repair strained relationships. He also uses EMDR for trauma-related memories and elements of the Gottman Method when relationship work is needed.

Chris asks people to consider what they want to change and then tries clear, measurable steps toward that change. He describes counseling as a collaborative process and encourages straightforward conversations about progress and next steps.
