My name is Chris Monteith and I am working in private practice with Evolution Mental Health Services. I am a LCSW and LADC/MH licensed to practice in Oklahoma. I focus on meeting a client where they are and walking with them as a partner to aid in addressing barriers, challenges, and developing healthy coping strategies. My approach is one of non-judgment that empowers clients to confidently interact with their world and learning how to balance emotion and reason. I ask that my clients come open and willing to explore the treatment process together, as a team, so we might identify barriers and work to overcome them, therapeutically. I work to provide ongoing care to men and women suffering with mental health issues, some of whom develop negative coping responses when they feel at a loss to manage symptoms in other ways. I also provide support/counseling for individuals seeking recovery from addiction, as well as family members/spouses of those in addiction. I therapeutically assist clients to unlock hope and a sense of empowerment as they move forward seeking a better overall quality of life. I believe everyone has inherent worth and dignity no matter the background or their struggles. For those who desire/prefer it, I can further support individuals from a Christian perspective, including the Catholic faith.
