What Clients Say...
- "Every time we left an appointment, my partner and I would turn toward each other and hug and kiss. We continued deeper conversations afterward. We were proud of our progress. We were getting to see more of each other and discover how much we loved and cared about the other in insanely deep ways. And now we're engaged! We've kept the door open with Chris because we both really grew in our time with him, and it's wonderful knowing if things come up in the future, we can turn to him again for help." - Kathy and Jim
"I came to Chris hoping to work on issues of self-doubt and depression that were impacting my relationship and career. It felt strange, at first! I was so used to relying on my intellect to solve my problems. Chris helped me slow down and refocus. Now I'm on a whole new path, taking classes and doing activities that feel like the best fit for all of the skills and talents I can now more fully appreciate. I take more time to reflect positively and focus on my strengths, and feel much more prepared to bring all I have to offer into an equal and loving partnership." - Forrest
- "My wife and I used to fight all the time! And I mean fight, like mean fight. By the time we landed in his office, we were about ready to split up. We had been to lots of therapy. But Dr. Tickner has a way of really getting down to the core material. Yeah, it's really hard work, but you know he's got you. You know he cares. And so you feel safe. We still disagree, we still have fights, but we take care to make sure that we're not wounding each other and that we're both working toward a place where we can really listen and be heard. Now our fights are fun, safe, and creative! Thank you Dr. Chris!" - Sarah and Linda
"Dr. Tickner made us feel normal, that the problems were were facing were faced by many couples. He modeled patience, active listening, and empathy, and to learn to "put the swords down!" He also turned the spotlight from one person to the other, helping us see each other through a therapist's caring eyes." - Chloe and Greg
"Chris helped me to tap into a mindful awareness of my body that gave me a new way of getting past all the over-intellectualized anxiety that was stressing me out. By really focusing on a deep and simple connection with my physical self, I've started learning to get at the heart of my issues more effectively." - Tanya
