About Christian

Christian Geirsson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Pennsylvania with nine years of clinical experience. He works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, anger, and coping with life changes. He also supports people facing grief, self-esteem struggles, ADHD, bipolar concerns, and LGBT‑related issues.

Christian favors clear, practical conversations. He adapts the way he talks and plans sessions to suit each person. Sessions focus on real-life problems such as snapping at loved ones, mounting resentment, or feeling overwhelmed by work or parenting responsibilities.

His approach draws on techniques from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused therapy. That means sessions mix listening with specific tools you can try between meetings. He often helps people spot thought patterns that increase anger and practices small behavioral changes that reduce reactivity.

Christian aims to make the process straightforward. He will work with clients to set clear goals and check progress regularly. Meetings can include skill practice, problem solving, and planning steps to handle triggers or stressful situations more effectively.

People who come to him for anger-related concerns can expect direct feedback and practical strategies. He emphasizes respect and sensitivity while keeping the work focused on measurable changes. If you want to change how anger shows up in your life, he offers grounded support and concrete methods to try.

How sessions work

How his approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy centers conversations on the person's concerns and priorities, giving space to describe what anger feels like and where it shows up. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes to reduce reactivity and improve mood. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) adds concrete skills for emotion regulation and distress tolerance that can be practiced between meetings.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Christian will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That collaboration includes checking what helps, adjusting techniques, and setting short‑term goals to track progress.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current online options before booking. Many people find remote sessions easier to fit into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins during work breaks, or reduce travel time. Online work can make it simpler to use practical homework, such as tracking triggers or trying breathing and grounding skills between sessions.
