About Chris

Integrating Clinical Psychology, Mindfulness, and Whole-Person Well-Being

Rooted in the spiritual effects of mindfulness while also valuing the practical mechanics of our bodies, Chris brings a wholistic mindset to our well-being.


Chris received his BA in psychology from Brigham Young University and his masters and doctorate work at Washington University in St. Louis, the latter focusing on social support benefits on the emotional well-being of those with chronic illnesses. 


Chris has owned both residential treatment centers and counseling clinics. In the latter, he currently supervises clinicians on best practices. In a separate health pursuit, Chris earned US patents with a foot and ankle surgeon, Dr. Rob Faux, for devices to help relieve pain and aid functioning for patients having foot deformities.
