Prior to joining the Cohen Clinic at Hope for The Warriors, Christopher served as a clinical supervisor for

1st Battalion 6th Marines, Christopher deployed to Garmsir, Afghanistan for 8 months in support of OEF

A native of Pembroke, North Carolina, Christopher has been married for 27 years to his wife, Kimberly.
They have two adult boys, Jared and Joel. Christopher loves spending time with family and friends.
Christopher and Kimberly’s sons are college athletes, and they spend a lot of time going to college
football games to watch them play. What resonates most with Christopher about the Cohen clinic is
there are no barriers to treatment. “As a veteran, we often continue to foster the mentality that we
must push through the difficult things and not show weakness, or we feel our family will suffer or not
respect us. The Cohen Clinic at Hope for The Warriors helps to reduce those stigmas and offers support
in all aspects to make life better for veterans, active duty, and their families.”
