Self-described as overly emotional and a true theater kid at heart, Chris is always working to better understand himself, and regularly shares snippets of therapy zooms with his20 million followers (alongside videos of crying sessions to Taylor Swift, dances with Meghan Trainor, and coffee deliveries, of course).

Chris first started working with his therapist Lizzie at age 20 during his second stint in rehab, the one that got him sober before he was old enough to have his first legal drink. He started working with her again in 2020 when a new addiction reared its head: reliance on validation from his rapidly growing online community. In the videos he shares, Chris jokes with Lizzie about "daddy" Harry Styles and crying in public, but sometimes his voice catches or his eyes gleam, the video cuts, and we get the sense the real work is about to begin.

In I Think My Therapist Hates Me, Chris finally provides fans more than a snippet, inviting readers in on a session with Lizzie, and his quest to understand why even sober, even living his dream, he still can't quiet his self-critic. While Chris has shared a bit about his experience with addiction, Lizzie's session prompts him to go deeper, giving him space to tell his formative stories from childhood to present day (including his first account of his breakup with Ian) with his signature humour and heart.
