About Chris
Chris Goetz is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Texas with 16 years of experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, trauma and relationship problems. Her work also covers grief, eating issues, parenting stress, anger, self-esteem concerns, and LGBT-related matters.
Chris focuses on understanding how attachment and early relationships shape current patterns. She uses Attachment-Based Therapy alongside client-centered and cognitive behavioral tools to help people see what keeps them stuck.
Background and approach
Sessions tend to be direct and practical, with room to talk about feelings and patterns that come up between sessions. Her background includes long-term clinical work with people who have experienced severe trauma, emotional abuse, and co-occurring substance use concerns.
She also has experience addressing complex mood conditions and personality-related struggles, and she brings that experience into everyday, down-to-earth conversations about coping and change. In sessions she listens for the root of repeated problems and then helps build new ways of relating and coping.
Techniques can include cognitive-behavioral exercises, emotion regulation skills from DBT, and motivated goal-setting when addiction or ambivalence is present. The aim is steady progress rather than quick fixes. People can expect a collaborative approach that adjusts to their needs.
Chris meets clients where they are and works at a practical pace, balancing insight about past patterns with hands-on skills for daily life.

Online support
How attachment work and skills-based therapy translate online
Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships shape current patterns of relating and emotion. Online sessions can use this lens to identify repeating interaction habits and to practice new ways of connecting in everyday life. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a respectful, nonjudgmental stance where the therapist follows the person's lead and helps them find their own solutions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and is useful for anxiety, depression, and addictive patterns.Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Chris will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. That might mean combining attachment-focused conversation with CBT exercises or DBT skills for emotion regulation, and the plan can change as progress unfolds.
Online care offers practical flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video sessions allow for richer conversation and visual cues. Phone meetings can be a good fit for lower bandwidth or when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text messaging enable quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or ongoing support between full sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy days and varied routines.
