Christopher France -LMFT

Christopher France is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with over 10 years of experience working with adolescents, young adults, adults, couples, and families across residential, outpatient, intensive in-home, and community-based settings. He has extensive experience helping clients navigate trauma, anxiety and depression, relationship and family conflict, life transitions, emotional regulation difficulties, and patterns that can leave people feeling stuck or disconnected from themselves and others.

Chris approaches therapy from a relational, attachment-based, and trauma-informed perspective. He is trained in EMDR and incorporates elements of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Gestalt therapy, family systems, and attachment-based approaches depending on the needs of each client. His work with couples and families focuses on understanding patterns beneath conflict, improving communication, strengthening relationships, and helping clients develop healthier ways of connecting with one another.

Chris also has specialized experience working with adults experiencing complex concerns related to sexual behavior, boundaries, intimacy, shame, and relationship difficulties. He recognizes that these topics can be difficult to discuss and strives to provide a respectful, nonjudgmental environment where clients can speak openly while working toward greater understanding, accountability, and meaningful change.

Chris  believes therapy works best when clients feel both supported and appropriately challenged. His style is collaborative, genuine, and practical, with an emphasis on understanding where patterns come from while also helping clients develop concrete tools to create change in their everyday lives.
