Christian Holmes

Christian Holmes practices from the conviction that surface-level relief — the therapeutic equivalent of Advil — rarely addresses what’s actually driving the problem. Based in Beverly Hills and available for online sessions, he works to bring unconscious material into the open, so that the beliefs and past experiences quietly running a person’s life can be examined, understood, and changed. When a client finds themselves unable to stop doomscrolling at 2 a.m. despite knowing they need sleep, Christian sees that not as a discipline failure but as a signal worth following — a window into something deeper that deserves real attention.

He works with teenagers, young adults, men, and women navigating addiction, anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome, trauma, relationship difficulties, and the particular pressures that come with high performance in professional life. His training spans cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, motivational interviewing, EMDR, and trauma-focused CBT, alongside psychoanalytic frameworks that reach further than behavior alone.

Christian also offers specialized services including sex addiction therapy, Christian counseling rooted in his background as a former youth pastor and theology graduate, and executive coaching for high performers seeking something beyond conventional approaches. His own path through the music industry — and through the fears and addictions that came with it — shapes the directness and genuine investment he brings to every client relationship.
