Chris Laviola, PsyD
Psychologist
I work with people of all ages and particularly enjoy helping people with key life transitions and events that we experience throughout the lifespan. Significant life events whether personal or external impact us and if we have experienced trauma or mental health issues that just makes navigating these all the more difficult. I believe in a strength-based approach that is affirming and solution-focused.
My years of experience in various aspects of treatment allows me to be comfortable assisting my clients with a wide variety of problems and backgrounds. This has helped me to see that an integrative approach is most effective. The step of reaching out for help can be extremely difficult and takes courage. We are committed to creating a welcoming, accepting, healing environment. Also, although we take our work very seriously, we also try to bring lightness, humor, and celebrate the joy in recovery as well.
