About me
My initial training as a therapist was in premarital and marriage counseling, a vital part of my practice that to this day I enjoy very much. I have approximately 20 years of experience and am licensed in the state of Texas. Whether helping a person navigate life after a divorce or supporting a marriage to prevent one, I am here to assist you in either situation. Sometimes a simple correction in communication styles can make all the difference in the world. In addition to counseling couples, I have also worked with persons coming out of the sex industry. It is my passion to work with those who struggle with severe trauma and emotional abuse, as well as major depressive disorders, bipolar I & II, schizoaffective, co-occurring and substance abuse disorders. I have a great deal of experience working with dissociative, borderline and personality disorders. I am well-versed and extremely comfortable working with persons of different cultures.
My motto is, “reveal the root, expose the lie and heal the wounded spirit.” I utilize a trauma-informed, person-centered, psychodynamic approach in therapy and often incorporate CBT, DBT and mindfulness techniques. I strive to meet the unique and individual needs of each client and adjust my approach accordingly. I am a certified revisioning practitioner, a technique that simulates re-attachment for grief resolution and ego-integration and am certified by the FBI National Academy in resiliency training. I also enjoy training local police departments throughout the Metroplex in critical incident and mental health orientation trainings.
I truly consider it an honor and a privilege to partner with you in your journey towards wholeness. My goal is to help you become all that you were created to be!

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Chris Goetz. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.
We love Chris! She listens, understands, and more importantly challenges. She has loads of experience and she knows what she is sharing. We’ve seen things come into practice through her sharing in our marriage and it’s helped us a lot. We highly recommend her!
Great person with a lot of knowledge
Chris is an amazing therapist. Very down to earth and not afraid to share personal experiences. She makes us feel very comfortable and helps us to better understand what our partner is trying to express to each other. She is very understanding and I love that we are given homework to better learn how to communicate. We Highly recommend Chris!
I enjoyed our first session and felt hopeful for the first time in a while.
We couldn't be happier with the support we've received from Chris. From our very first session with her, it was evident how easy she is to talk to. Her approachable demeanor and warm personality instantly put us at ease, making each session something we genuinely look forward to.
Her advice has been invaluable. It's clear she has a wealth of experience and knowledge, which she shares in a way that's both insightful and practical. We particularly appreciate her sense of humor—it has a way of lightening the mood and making even the most delicate topics feel manageable.
What stands out the most are the amazing examples she provides. Her real-world scenarios and relatable stories have equipped us with tangible tools we can apply to our own relationship. Because of her, we now have a deeper understanding of what it takes to make our relationship thrive.
We highly recommend her to any couple seeking to improve their relationship. She's been a game-changer for us!
Made me feel much more comfortable than others I have tried with but most importantly she has some similar experiences so her advice means much more.
She gets us!
Easy to use app and great therapist
Just getting going, but Chris seems to have some strong insights and good idea what she’s doing and doesn’t let me interrupt like I always do. I appreciate her Sternness and humor.
Professional, to the point, and evenhanded
Chris has been great and for the cost it’s unreal. So grateful for Chris
Chris is a great listener and provides great tools. She’s also direct in an a way that doesn’t make you defensive but doesn’t sugar coat things either.
Chris is a great experienced Therapist with lots of good tools and a great conversational leader.
She is a great listener. She is also witty and helps with talking through things.
I loved Chris understanding nature to make our marriage communicate in a kind way. She guides us and pushes us to organize our conversation so it is effective and easily can be folded in our life.
Very helpful.
In the time we worked together, Chris made us feel at ease and completely respected and understood. Our relationship has been made better by working with her. Thank you, Chris!
