About Christopher

Christopher Jainandan is a licensed mental health counselor based in Florida who brings a decade of experience in the mental health and substance abuse field. Raised in Guyana and relocated to the United States in his early teens, he built a foundation in psychology at Rollins College in Winter Park, FL, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. He went on to complete a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Capella University and later became a Florida Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC). He is also nationally certified through the National Board for Certified Counselors - a professional credential that recognizes standards in counseling practice.

Christopher’s work centers on helping people address anxiety, depression, mood disorders, trauma-related concerns, family and relationship challenges, and substance use issues. He encourages openness about the problems that matter most and collaborates with individuals to explore practical options for moving toward a healthier place. His style emphasizes respect, empathy, and a strengths-based perspective, and he draws on evidence-informed approaches to tailor care to each person’s needs. Christopher aims to reduce the stigma often associated with seeking help and supports clients as they build skills for coping, recovery, and improved relationships.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Christopher Jainandan uses client-centered methods and cognitive-behavioral strategies to guide online work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening deeply and creating a collaborative, empathetic relationship so clients can explore their values and goals and feel supported while making changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, learn practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and mood symptoms, and build strategies for coping with everyday challenges. He also draws on Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques when clients need skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness, which can be particularly helpful for mood instability and relationship difficulties.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Christopher works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress and circumstances evolve.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility in how people access care. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, support clients who are far from in-person services, and allow continuity of care when life circumstances change.
