About Christian

Christian Waller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Georgia with seven years of experience. He helps people who are coping with trauma, anxiety, depression, grief, and questions about sexuality or gender expression. He also supports those facing relationship concerns, parenting stress, sleep problems, anger, and self-esteem struggles.

Christian uses clear goals to guide sessions. He helps clients set short-term steps and longer-term aims, and he checks in to adjust goals as needed. Sessions focus on emotions, thoughts, and behaviors and how those parts affect daily life.

His approach blends several evidence-based methods. He uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Client-Centered Therapy, and Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT). He draws on elements that fit each person’s needs rather than following a single script.

Christian trained at Augusta University, earning his master’s degree in 2017. Since then he has provided individual and group therapeutic services. He emphasizes how emotions, behaviors, and thoughts connect when helping people process traumatic stress and related concerns.

In sessions he aims to be respectful and open to differences in gender, sexuality, and life experience. He encourages people to explore options and to revise plans when needed. To begin, clients follow the site’s booking steps to match with him and schedule an initial meeting.

How his approaches translate to online work

Christian often uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy to help people name and respond to strong emotions, especially when patterns in relationships or attachment are involved. EFT focuses on understanding emotional responses and reshaping how people connect with their feelings and with others.

He also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical behavior changes. ACT can help with values-driven choices, and CBT is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep-related patterns.

Choosing the right approach is collaborative. Christian will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful, then try techniques and adjust as needed. He frames therapy as a process of testing what helps and shifting course when something isn’t working.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. In general, online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. If you want to know which formats are available with him, use the site booking steps to complete the matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.
