About Christopher
Christopher Hall is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor (LMHC) based in New York. He focuses on practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship strain, grief, and compassion fatigue. His style is straightforward and warm, aimed at making therapy feel useful and manageable for busy lives.
He believes the person in the room knows themselves best, so sessions start from the client’s experience. Christopher combines that client-centered stance with concrete tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and motivational interviewing.
Background and approach
He teaches simple coping skills and builds clear, achievable goals together with each client. Sessions are interactive and direct. Christopher keeps language plain and avoids jargon so parents and caregivers can take ideas home and try them the same day.
He emphasizes balancing mental, physical, and emotional needs rather than treating problems in isolation. With seven years of experience, Christopher has worked with a range of concerns including addictions, workplace issues, LGBT matters, intimacy and fatherhood issues, and trauma. He also addresses shame, forgiveness, isolation, and life-purpose questions as part of broader care.
Clients can expect an honest working relationship where progress is tracked through practical steps. Christopher views therapy as collaborative work that can also be an encouraging, hopeful process.
How Christopher’s Approaches Work Online
Client-centered therapy means sessions begin with the client’s priorities and lived experience. The therapist listens first, then helps shape goals that make sense for daily life and parenting demands.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing small behavior changes. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, stress, and many common habits that get in the way of feeling better.
The therapist also uses motivational interviewing to support change when someone feels stuck. That method helps clarify values and build the motivation needed to try new coping skills or reduce harmful behaviors.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will discuss options, try interventions together, and adjust based on what helps most. Clients are treated as active partners in deciding goals and pacing.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy fit around family and work. These formats allow flexible scheduling, easier continuity between appointments, and the chance to practice skills in real life with therapist support.
Client-Centered Therapy
The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)
CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
Mindfulness Therapy
Attention training: noticing thoughts and physical feelings as they arrive without being carried off by them. Much of it is practice you do yourself, so guidance over video or audio works much as it would in person.
