Therapists in Connecticut

My name is Christopher Hale, I am a Professional Counselor (LPC), Clinical Social Worker (LCSW), and Alcohol & Drug Counselor (LADC) licensed in the state of Connecticut. I earned a Doctoral Degree in Education (EdD), Master of Social Work (MSW), and a Master of Arts in Psychology (MA).I have been providing psychotherapy and counseling services for more than ten years. I have worked with adults, children, couples and families with issues from depression, anxiety, substance abuse, trauma, work issues, parenting, relational difficulties, anger management and issues of daily living. My counseling style combines strength-based, cognitive-behavioral, client-centered therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy, mindfulness therapy, motivational interviewing, and solution-focused approaches to help individuals achieve their therapeutic goals. I provide a safe, secure and judgement free environment to help build your coincidence, coping skills, and tools to problem solve. Prior to a career in counseling; I was a police officer, it seemed that people who protect and serve often do not reach out for help. I hope if you are a first responder you will consider giving me the opportunity to work with you to help coping with the chronic stress of shift-work and the many other stressors that may diminish your quality of life. My goal is to help you improve your mental health and achieve your goals. No matter how big or small your issue maybe I am here to help.

Greetings! I have had the opportunity to work in the counseling field for 32 years and my desire to help, learn and share has remained strong. My experiences have seen me working with families, youth and adults in a variety of issues. From family preservation and individual life issues, adults and youths involved in judicial system(s), victims of sexual assault, to working with people marginalized in society due to some identified stigma. As a retired military veteran, I have a unique understanding of the pressures of military life, as well as veteran life. Also, as a man of color, I appreciate the challenges that marginalized people experience in the lives. I have worked within the Judicial system with families and individuals from incarceration to post-incarceration, individual work, and group work, with victims of sexual assault, as well as with people that are experiencing stresses with various parts of their life. My approach, to the therapeutic process, is to be considerate, thoughtful and respectful. I encourage (team) work, effective and honest communication, as well as, a commitment to addressing issues in a manner that allows for surviving and thriving in life. My life motto is " We don't have a second chance at .... Now." I wish you the best!

Hello. I know life can at times feel overwhelming and difficult to navigate on your own. I am so happy that you are taking the step to begin working through whatever concerns you may have. When we meet, I hope that you will find a safe place where we can explore these concerns and develop a plan that will have you living your best life. I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor with over 15 years of counseling experience. I have worked with individuals presenting with a wide range of concerns. I have extensive experience working with individuals with addiction and with their loved ones, with individuals who have experienced trauma, and with families in conflict. I have worked with individuals struggling with life transitions such as divorce, returning to the workforce and career change. I have counseled in mental health, addiction treatment, and criminal justice settings as well as my own private practice My counseling philosophy is that YOU are the expert of your own life. My approach is integrative, incorporating different therapeutic techniques to make sure that your specific concern is addressed in the way most effective for you. Each person is unique and brings his or her own history making it impossible to utilize only one or two approaches to therapy. People respond differently to styles of counseling. Our work together will always be person (you)- centered and strength-based, because, again, I truly believe that you have what it takes to succeed. My role is to guide and support you in building the skills and confidence necessary to live your best life. I meet each client where you are and build on your strengths and resources. My style is not always “easy”, I will sometimes push you past your comfort zone, but I will always be empathetic and patient and put you first. Oftentimes, clients aren't aware of what is holding them back and keeping them stuck in unhealthy patterns and as a therapist, I can aid in identifying those things. Together, we can undo false belief systems and unhealthy habits. Seeking therapy is the first step in that process. I look forward to meeting you and to begin working together!
