My name is Christopher Raposo. I’m a trained and licensed clinical social worker. My work experience has been in acute psychiatric hospitalization, outpatient substance abuse, and community behavioral health clinics. I’ve worked with a clientele suffering from a vast array of disorders, backgrounds, and life stressors. The work we do as a team mostly consists of psychoeducation, therapy, and a therapeutic alliance defined by treatment goals and objectives.

Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

During our first session we will conduct assessments, define symptoms, challenge areas, barriers, and define our treatment goals and objectives.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

My greatest strength as a provider is psychoeducation, interlacing research and general talk therapy in a method that aims to empower my clients to fulfill their goals and take ownership to the new found skills.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I really enjoy working with clients who are new to therapy and are often unsure about what potential benefits they may obtain. Seeing the growth from the first session to the last session provides a level of satisfaction and pride.

Christopher makes it so easy to talk to him, he’s also incredibly intelligent and has a vast knowledge about multiple things such as jobs and activities that would be beneficial for me. I would recommend him to any and everybody who seeks therapy.

At first I just picked him cuz he was the first person I saw. After my first session I’m glad I picked him. He was very open and very kind. He was very clear and was very helpful in creating new goals for myself. Can’t wait for my other sessions.

Chris was a breath of fresh air to speak with. Found it easy to express my issues and his responses told me he was focused. He is a good listener who offered thoughtful advice and anecdotes. Made another appointment with Chris, truly enjoyed his time and insight.
