About The Listening Field

The Listening Field is a psychotherapy and relational practice for people who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or inwardly divided, even when life looks functional on the outside.

Many of the people who come here are thoughtful, capable, and tired. They are not broken. They are overloaded. Their attention is scattered. Their nervous system is strained. Their inner life has lost coherence.

The work of The Listening Field is to slow things down enough for something real to be heard again.

This is not performance therapy. It is not symptom-chasing. It is not motivational coaching dressed up as depth. It is careful, relational work that helps people regain clarity, agency, and internal alignment.

Psychotherapy

I’m Christopher Lee Chang (RP Qualifying), and I offer psychotherapy and developmental coaching for adults seeking healing, clarity, and a more coherent relationship with themselves and others. 

Many people come to this work during a rupture: burnout, anxiety, relationship breakdown, grief, moral exhaustion, or a quiet sense that the self they’ve been performing is no longer sustainable. My role is to help you slow down enough to feel what is true, and steady enough to move with choice again.

My path into this practice began with a simple but disorienting moment: I looked in the mirror and didn’t recognize the person looking back. That threshold initiated a long season of unlearning, rebuilding, and trauma repair. Over time, what had once felt like “too much sensitivity” became a different kind of seeing: careful attention to pattern, emotion, attachment, and the subtle ways people abandon themselves to stay safe.

I work from a trauma-informed, relational foundation. In practical terms, that means we focus on: • nervous system regulation (so life stops feeling like a constant threat) • emotional truth (so you no longer have to split yourself in two) • relational repair (so closeness becomes safer, not more costly) • integrity and direction (so your choices line up with who you are)

Clients often describe the work as “quietly intense.” We don’t force catharsis. We build capacity. We name what’s happening, track what your body is doing, and follow the threads that lead to real change.

I call the stance I bring to the room The Listening Field: a steady, non-performative presence where your experience can land without judgment, analysis-as-defense, or ideological scripts.

Frequently Asked Questions

It can be either. Some people come for psychotherapy to work with emotional distress, trauma, or inner fragmentation. Others come for coaching to regain clarity, direction, and steadiness during demanding life or leadership transitions.

We decide together. Early conversations clarify goals, stress levels, and what’s showing up beneath the surface. If deeper therapeutic work is needed, we name it. If coaching is appropriate, the work stays focused and forward-moving.

This work suits thoughtful adults who feel overwhelmed, stuck, or internally divided despite functioning well outwardly. It’s especially helpful during transitions, burnout, moral pressure, or periods where attention and clarity have fractured.

No. Many people come before crisis. Whether therapy or coaching, the work often focuses on restoring coherence, preventing burnout, and addressing strain early, rather than waiting until distress becomes unmanageable.

The work emphasizes attention, nervous system regulation, and meaning. It avoids rigid programs, performance pressure, or surface advice. The aim is not optimization, but restoring the capacity to think, feel, and choose clearly.
