As a business owner that has multiple caregivers on staff I know and understand the importance of making sure that there are resources available for them. Care for the caregiver is not just a catchy phrase but also very important. I can highly recommend Ms. McDonald and her practice. My company uses her as a resource in order to make sure that any problems both professional and private can be discussed privately and handled appropriately. My staff has gains the tools needed in order continue to maintain a healthy and clutter free mental space. I have worked with and known Chris for approximately 3 years now and she has been a blessing to myself and my staff. Thank you Chris for your kindness and for truly providing hope when it seems elusive to many.

Im so happy that I found Path to Hope. I love the holistic approach that Chris takes, including the yoga and meditation. I really appreciate having yoga poses and easy meditations that I can use at home to help me with my anxiety. Its been much easier for me to break down my goals into small pieces and actually see progress. Keeping me actively involved and accountable has really made a difference!

Chris is a great counselor! She brings compassion, warmth, and calmness to her client care. Her approach to therapy integrates the traditional with the modern from cognitive behavioral therapy to healing through yoga. She treats the whole person rather than simply the mental health symptoms. The deep expertise Chris has in treating anxiety, in particular, is invaluable when a member of a couple needs some individual support outside of their couples therapy. I recommend her services to anyone who struggles with anxiety.

Chris is a wonderful therapist who truly practices what she preaches! I highly recommend her.

I was so excited when Chris informed me that she would be opening her own counseling service. I began working with Chris almost 9 years ago in a school counseling setting. I was new to the school counseling profession. Chris was very helpful and gracious. She acted as both a mentor and friend to me as I began my journey in the field. She was always quick to share strategies which had and had not worked for her and encouraged me in my work with students. Children from Kindergarten to 5th grade were quick to seek her out at our school for personal as well as academic problems or sometimes just to share with her accomplishments they had performed. Due to her welcoming and attentive listening style she helped created a inviting environment in our work area. I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to have worked along side Chris and I look forward to watching Path to Hope Counseling grow.
