Wade Christian Peterson, who goes by Christian, holds a Bachelor of Arts degree in Psychology with a minor in Criminology from the University of Oklahoma, and a Master of Arts in Clinical/Counseling Psychology from Midwestern State University. He specializes in working with adults who carry the weight of childhood trauma, attachment wounds, and interpersonal struggles. His practice focuses on supporting individuals navigating anxiety, depression, and various forms of addiction—including less discussed challenges such as sex, pornography, gambling, or food addiction. He recognizes these not merely as problems, but as signals—adaptive responses developed by the nervous system for survival.

Christian's therapeutic approach is relational and collaborative, creating a space where clients don't need to have everything figured out. He draws from attachment-focused therapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS), and EMDR, while prioritizing meeting each client where they are. His philosophy emphasizes that healing isn't one-size-fits-all, and he believes in understanding each person's story within their unique life context and cultural framework. Working collaboratively with clients, he explores the root causes behind symptoms, identifies protective mechanisms, and gently builds capacity for change. His goal is to help clients feel more whole through deeper self-connection rather than simply "fixing" problems.

Beyond his clinical work, Christian actively pursues professional development through reading and podcast engagement. He maintains a balanced life through his passion for landscape gardening and outdoor activities. An adventure seeker at heart, he enjoys exploring concerts, local events, and travel opportunities.
