Chris Kopper

Chris Kopper, MA, LPC, is a former school counselor turned therapist who brings warmth, curiosity, and a deep respect for each client’s individuality to his work. He is passionate about helping people explore new or unfamiliar transitions, play with emerging aspects of identity, and reconnect with what brings them meaning and joy.

Chris believes therapy should be a space where you can show up fully as yourself—messy, curious, uncertain, and human. His approach balances humor and levity with genuine care and insight, creating a relationship built on trust, respect, and collaboration. Clients working with Chris can expect a down-to-earth therapist who welcomes their stories, celebrates their strengths, and isn’t afraid to challenge limiting beliefs when the moment calls for it.

He works with adults of all ages but feels especially energized by supporting college students, young adults, and individuals exploring identity, career, and purpose. Chris also enjoys working with single parents, former athletes, and those navigating major life or career transitions. His clients often come to therapy seeking support with anxiety, self-esteem, relationships, grief, OCD, and questions of gender or sexuality.

Chris’s therapeutic style is eclectic and flexible, tailored to the needs of each person. Drawing from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Narrative Therapy, Gestalt, Existential Therapy, and Person-Centered approaches, with a dash of Internal Family Systems (IFS) parts work, he helps clients deepen self-awareness while experimenting with new ways of thinking, feeling, and being. His work is deeply affirming and humanistic, encouraging clients to explore not only what’s hard, but also what’s possible.

As a bilingual clinician fluent in English and Italian, Chris brings a culturally attuned perspective to his work, welcoming clients from diverse backgrounds, including LGBTQIA+, BIPOC, and neurodiverse communities. His goal is to help people feel seen, cared for, and free to explore who they are becoming.

Outside of therapy, he enjoys playing pickup basketball, going for trail runs, cooking Italian food, collecting vinyl records, and hanging out with his family and their rescue pets. He believes the same things that bring joy and connection outside of therapy are the ones that make healing possible inside it, too.
