Chris Howard, Denver-based Psychotherapist / Counselor (MA, LPCC, NCC)
I use a unique, trauma-informed therapeutic approach, working with a diverse range of adults and adolescents, offering counseling that is both restorative and transformative, creating more resilience, increased self-compassion, and greater curiosity about what can happen next.
I work with many men who feel misunderstood and confused about what the world wants from them and what it is they really want for themselves. Whether it's showing up in your romantic relationships, as a lack of fulfillment in your career, or is resulting in unhealthy habits, poor boundaries, or lack of impulse control, we'll create a plan together to heal your past traumas, redefine your present challenges, and work toward attainable goals for improved communication, self-confidence, connectivity and emotionality.
Men’s Issues
Freedom from anxiety
I work with people who can't sleep, can't focus, can't control their thoughts, and feel constantly stuck in a cycle of tension and worry. Regardless of how anxiety is showing up for you, at Base Camp, you'll transform your relationship to stress. Emphasizing kindness and compassion, I use evidence-backed treatment interventions, collaborating with you to create counseling solutions for all your present challenges.
Improve Self-Esteem
I work with people who keep feeling they are not 'good enough'. A harsh inner critic might be constantly bullying you with the message that you're not worthy, you lack value, that you're unloveable and not even deserving of help. I guarantee you that critic is wrong. And I'll help you not just confront the inner critic but find a way to work with it, even befriend it, so you can begin to have more acceptance for yourself, more kindness, and more self-compassion, freeing up energy for all the things that give your life real meaning and purpose.
“From the very first session, it was evident that Chris possesses a remarkable ability to create a safe and non-judgmental space, where I felt comfortable sharing my deepest fears, doubts, and vulnerabilities.”
