About

***Please Note: Chris Tropin is a provider within Headway’s provider network. After booking your appointment you will receive an email from Headway with instructions to setup your Headway patient account. You will need to complete this setup in order to confirm your appointment.*** What should your client know about you? I have worked in the field of mental health for almost thirty years and have engaged with people suffering from varying levels of mental health challenges ranging from depression and anxiety, to substance use disorders, relationships challenges, self esteem/anger management struggles and pandemic-related concerns. I also have considerable experience in the treatment of smoking cessation. What is your approach to therapy? When you feel like your life is out of control or you struggle to organize your thoughts, I am here to help. If anxiety or depression has taken residence in your mind, I am here to assist in evicting such unwelcomed guests! The key to effective therapy is forming a bond of trust which helps us get to the root of your problems, and that is where the real change comes! I believe you can change. Now it's your turn. What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you? Through our work together, you will come to have a more candid understanding of who you are and how you can use your strengths to overcome barriers to becoming a more comprehensive and effective version of yourself. I will help you work to resolve inner-conflict and push past fears and self-doubt, to feel more in control of your life. The fact that you are here reading this is proof positive that you are well on your way to achieving your therapeutic goals. I look forward to getting started!
