Chris Joseph, Masters Level Intern
Hey, I’m so glad you’re here. I’m a proud Black therapist who’s passionate about helping people reconnect with their inner strength, identity, and sense of purpose. I approach therapy as a space for real, honest conversations. The kind that helps you unpack what's weighing you down and figure out where you want to go next.
My style is warm, collaborative, and direct. I lean on cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), solution-based, mindfulness practices, to help you build emotional awareness, regulate stress, and move through life with more clarity and confidence. I'm especially experienced in supporting folks navigating cultural/gendered trauma, anxiety, and depression.
In our sessions, I like to break things down in a way that feels relatable. I often use music, pop culture, and even literature to make sense of emotions and experiences. Healing doesn’t have to be clinical or cold; it can be creative, warm, and empowering.
I’m a master’s-level clinical intern, working under the supervision of Amber Block-Zambrano, LCSW-S. My approach is rooted in trauma-informed, strengths-based care. Inspired by the writings of bell hooks, I see healing as deeply personal, communal, and political. That means we don’t ignore the systems (like racism, patriarchy, and capitalism) that impact your mental health. We name them, challenge them, and explore how you can reclaim your agency in a world that often tries to take it from you.
Therapy, to me, is a space of liberation! A place where you can unlearn, reimagine, and grow into your fullest self. You don’t have to figure it all out alone. Let’s do this together.
