About me
My name is Chris Kangas, I am a licensed therapist in GA and WI, trauma certified, specializing in a holistic and integrative approach to assist with adjusting to a variety of life stressors that may be negatively impacting our thoughts, emotions and behavior, as well as our relationships with others, our sense of self and the connection we feel to a purpose in life or reason for being. I am also a peacetime Army veteran, who served honorably as a medic from 1986 to 1995, which contributed to my own empowerment to overcome the adverse childhood experiences of my youth prior to that time and since.
Over the past 33+ years, with the combination of personal experience and professional training, I have had the honor of serving a diverse group of individuals, couples and families facing a wide range of complex issues. I believe that when life's burdens become too heavy to bare, the difference between suffering and overcoming often requires that we reach out for help. There are many of us who have the wisdom, experience and compassion to work together toward something new...you just have to ask.
