About Christian T. Hill
Background
Prior to obtaining my Master’s Degree in Psychology and establishing my private practice, I served as a full-time Student Ministry Director for 12 years. With over 20 years of experience in private practice, I can confidently say that I have found my true passion in life by equipping and empowering my clients to find a greater sense of well-being, joy, and hope for their future. Although I come from a faith-based background, I make it a point to only delve into faith-based topics if my clients express an interest in doing so. My primary focus is to cater to the unique counseling needs of each of my clients and work towards finding practical solutions to help them overcome any challenges.
Education/Credentials
I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the state of Texas. I received my undergraduate degree in Communications at Stephen F. Austin State University and received my Masters’s Degree in Psychology from the University of Northern Colorado in 2002. I also had extensive internship training with the Medical Director at Cedar Springs Mental Health Hospital which equipped me to become very familiar with comprehensive treatment approaches.

Christian's Philosophy
I believe that healing takes place when an individual feels safe and there is a strong therapeutic relationship and connection built. It’s the power of this strong therapeutic relationship combined with the professional skill, expertise, and experience of a trained therapist that makes healing possible even for the most complicated teen and counseling related issues.
Modalities: Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Client Centered Therapy, and Family Systems Therapy
When meeting with a client, I believe the problem is the problem and not the client. Helping a client begin to separate themselves from the problem allows them to take a more objective look at the problem and evaluate the effects the problem is having on them. Once we identify the problem and achieve this separation from it, we are able to partner together to find solutions not to “fix the person”, but to solve the problem.
