About Christopher

Christopher Mabrey is a licensed mental health counselor in Indiana with ten years of experience in school counseling and clinical settings. He helps people who are dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, addictions, and stress. He also supports those facing relationship and parenting struggles, career setbacks, grief, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.

Christopher takes an interactive, straightforward approach in sessions. He listens first, then shapes conversations to match each person's needs.

Background and approach

He avoids stigmatizing labels and treats people with respect and compassion. In practice he draws on Narrative Therapy, Client-Centered methods, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Emotionally-Focused work, and Mindfulness. He adapts tools from these approaches into a plan that fits what a person wants to change.

Sessions focus on clear steps, new perspectives, and practical skills people can use between meetings. People often come for help with impulse control, anger, communication problems, jealousy, and issues tied to cultural stress or discrimination. Christopher also works with concerns like ADHD, compassion fatigue, and struggles around life purpose and self-love.

He aims to create a calm, judgment-free space where someone can try new ways of thinking and behaving. The goal is steady progress - small changes that add up to a more manageable day-to-day life.

How Narrative and Practical Approaches Work Online

Christopher blends Narrative Therapy with Client-Centered and Cognitive Behavioral approaches to help people understand and change problems that feel stuck. Narrative Therapy looks at the stories people tell about themselves and helps reframe those stories so they feel less limiting; this can be useful for trauma, shame, or life transitions. Client-Centered work focuses on a respectful, nonjudgmental conversation that follows what the person brings to the room and supports self-directed change. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) turns attention to patterns of thought and behavior and teaches clear strategies to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and handle impulsive responses.

Finding the right mix of methods is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the person to decide which approaches fit best for their goals, needs, and personal style. That plan can shift over time as progress is made or new priorities emerge.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video sessions allow face-to-face conversation when helpful. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a good option for a quick check-in. Chat or text messaging supports shorter updates, reflection between sessions, or people who prefer typed communication. These options aim to increase flexibility and make regular work on goals more achievable.
