About Christopher
Christopher Hohaia is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) with six years of professional experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, depression, addictions, and grief. He works with concerns around relationships, intimacy, parenting, self-esteem, and career stress. He also supports people facing trauma and abuse, compassion fatigue, bipolar challenges, and first responder issues.
His style is direct and compassionate. He listens first to understand what feels most urgent. Then he tailors conversations and a plan to fit each person’s situation.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps that can be used between meetings. Christopher approaches work with respect and sensitivity. He encourages honest talk about what is hard and what is working.
He helps people build coping skills and clearer next steps for everyday life. He offers sessions in English and practices from Florida while holding credentials in Utah as well. Sessions are available through video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to suit different needs.
Getting started requires completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a time. Christopher supports people who are ready to take the first step toward change and works to empower them through the process.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Christopher uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change. One approach emphasizes building coping skills and problem-solving strategies to reduce daily stress and anxiety, helping people manage symptoms and make clearer decisions. Another approach concentrates on processing trauma and abuse through gradual, guided steps that aim to reduce distress and increase emotional safety during sessions.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t helped before. Together they will try methods that fit the person’s needs and adjust the plan as progress unfolds.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls let people use body language and face-to-face conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when video isn’t practical or bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text options suit shorter check-ins, quick check-ins between sessions, or when typing feels more comfortable. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family, or busy days.
