Chris Jinks(He/Him/His)

Chris Jinks is a therapist based in San Francisco serving young men, adults, and couples. He is experienced in helping those struggling with occupational stress, burnout, the effects of trauma, and relationship difficulties. He also specializes in supporting first responders, including those living with post-traumatic stress. Before becoming a therapist, Chris worked in the technology industry in London, New York, and Silicon Valley.

Chris uses a combination of powerful approaches to help you heal: talk therapy (such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy) to help change how you relate to the world around you, and somatic therapies (like Brainspotting) to enable your nervous system to heal from trauma. By combining these methods, Chris helps clients make amazing progress toward the life they want to live.

Now in his second career, Chris brings decades of experience working in high-pressure situations to his clinical work. If you are struggling at work, looking for meaning and purpose, or feeling chronically stressed and burned out, Chris has walked in your shoes.

Chris sees clients in person in both San Francisco and San Mateo. He also provides online sessions to anyone in California.

Chris is supervised by Hannah Stutz, LCSW #99116.
