About Christian

Christian Waller is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who helps people work through sleep problems alongside trauma, anxiety, and life changes. He speaks plainly and focuses on practical goals that make day-to-day life easier. Christian aims to create a respectful, compassionate space for people exploring identity, stress, or relationship strains.

He earned a master’s degree from Augusta University in 2017 and has seven years of clinical experience. He has provided individual and group therapy for children, teens, and adults. His practice often centers on processing traumatic stress and reducing its effects on daily functioning, including sleep and rest difficulties.

Christian uses tools from several evidence-based approaches to tailor sessions to each person. He draws from cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thoughts and from acceptance-based ideas to help people live more in line with their values. He also uses client-centered skills to keep conversations grounded in what matters most to the person in front of him.

He values setting both short-term and long-term goals to track progress, while staying flexible when priorities change. Christian emphasizes that goals can be adjusted as people learn more about themselves through therapy. He encourages exploring different routes and choices rather than feeling stuck with one path.

Christian treats everyone with respect regardless of gender, sexuality, or background. He welcomes people who want to address sleep problems, trauma, anxiety, depression, relationship or parenting concerns, and related issues. To begin, clients complete a brief matching questionnaire and schedule based on availability.

How therapeutic approaches shape online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on helping people accept difficult internal experiences while taking steps toward what matters to them. It can help when sleep problems are tied to worry, avoidance, or rigid attempts to control tiredness. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and gives clear strategies to change unhelpful patterns that interfere with rest and daily functioning. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) centers on understanding emotional responses in relationships and can help when sleep issues are linked to conflict or intimacy stress.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Christian will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their needs and goals. He adapts techniques as clients learn what helps and what doesn’t, so the plan can change over time.

Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Many people find online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Online work can also let someone continue progress between in-person visits or when life demands more flexible scheduling. Licensed professionals, including this therapist, aim to help clients apply therapeutic tools to real-life routines and improve sleep and overall coping.
