Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling

Southern New Hampshire University

Supervised By Kristal DeSantis, LMFT

About Christian:

I am 40, partnered and the father of a little girl still living in Africa. I came here as a victim of torture for my sexual orientation and my advocacy for LGBTQ rights in my native country Cameroon. I have a master’s in Accounting and I am doing my second year Masters in Clinical Mental Health at Southern New Hampshire University.

I was blessed to be born with strong resilience and have found my innate strength to overcome every lemon life threw at me and turn them into delicious lemonade. In becoming a therapist, I want to share that strength with other people. When I am not working, reading or doing assignments, I enjoy cooking, hiking, or simply sitting in the park and people-watching.

Christians' Therapeutic Approach:

Therapy with me is about setting yourself free, becoming resilient and getting stronger. I use Client Centered Therapy in a creative approach to guide you to your inner self. You will be the driver and I will be the map holder. Together we will explore itineraries to safety and, on the way, reclaim strength, confidence and growth.

I have been exposed to different theories but have a preference for DBT, CBT, Satir Family Systems, Melodrama, and Creativity in Counseling. I will not hesitate to bring creativity and challenges to our sessions.

If you are dealing with Sadness, Depression, Anxiety, Parenting Challenges, Loneliness, Grief, Anger, Pain, Stress management, Financial stress (I have a background in financial management and accounting); or if you feel misunderstood and non conforming (in any way), give me a call. There are ways we can work together to get you past your current situation and equip you with tools to overcome future situations.
