Chris Bradt
Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC, LPC, LCPC, LPCC
Stress is an inevitable part of life, but sometimes it can become overwhelming. Rather than motivating us, as it can do in small doses, it becomes counterproductive and paralyzes us. As a mindfulness-based therapist, I guide my clients in learning how to relate to themselves and the world in more skillful ways that result in a calmer nervous system. Drawing from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), I help my clients gain clarity on their values - what is truly most important to them - and then create actionable steps to orient their life in alignment with those values.

Make Marriage Better
Psychologist, Ph.D.
At Make Marriage Better, we understand that stress often arises from deeply ingrained fears and the self-protective patterns we use to manage them, such as the fear of failure, loss of control, or not measuring up. Our approach to stress management uses the Deconstructing Anxiety™ method to help clients uncover their core fears and recognize the “chief defenses” they rely on, like overworking, perfectionism, or avoidance. By guiding individuals to "do the opposite" of these defenses, we support them in transforming their relationship with stress, shifting from reactive patterns to proactive resilience. This process not only reduces stress but also empowers clients to approach challenges with calm and clarity, ultimately enhancing their sense of well-being and strengthening their connections with others, including most especially in their primary relationships.
