Meet Chris

My name is Chris Haley, and my goal as a therapist is to help you achieve greater happiness and satisfaction by better understanding yourself and your relationships with others. I'm a compassionate, empathic, and nonjudgmental listener who aims to create a safe and supportive environment that fosters healing, growth, and empowerment.

I'm based in Manhattan, New York City, and I would be honored to accompany you on your therapy journey. Let's work together to achieve your goals and create a more fulfilling life. I provide therapy in person on Thursdays in Union Square/Greenwich Village, and I offer therapy virtually Monday-Thursday. I am licensed to see individuals residing in New York.

What is therapy like with Chris?

Together, we'll embark on a journey to explore the unique threads of your experience that make you who you are. We'll work together to identify recurring patterns and explore how you relate to others. By linking your past to the present, you'll gain clarity that leads to long-term growth and greater self-acceptance. It's important to remember that therapy isn't about quick fixes; it's a gradual exploration that requires patience and dedication.

I foster deep, meaningful connections in my practice. My therapeutic approach is grounded in psychodynamic psychotherapy; however, my practice is not limited to just one method or approach. I tailor my therapy sessions to meet the unique needs of each individual and draw from various theoretical models and techniques including psychodynamic, relational, somatic, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral therapies (CBT). I'll check in with you regularly to assess how therapy is working for you and adjust accordingly.

“Chris is an amazing therapist who managed to create a safe space for me to open up and feel supported in a judgement-free zone. Highly recommend him.” -B.C.

Frequently asked questions

Therapy for Men

I offer therapy that helps men navigate and address their unique challenges. Men are socialized to hide feelings and not complain, and they are more likely than women to suppress their emotions, which can lead to depression, anxiety, substance abuse, and stress-related illnesses. Society tends to blame men for their struggles without discussing context or root cause—the way society treats men. It doesn’t have to be this way. Asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness. You can still be a man and get the help you need. If you’re looking for a therapist who understands men’s issues, I invite you to contact me for a no-obligation consultation.

LGBTQ affirming

I specialize in providing LGBTQ+ affirming therapy, and I particularly understand the struggles experienced by gay and bisexual men and other members of the LGBTQ+ community. My practice embraces diversity and is open to individuals from all walks of life, including members of the heterosexual community, ensuring a supportive space for everyone’s therapeutic journey.

“Sessions with Chris have helped me to gain invaluable insights. Your professionalism, patience, expertise and compassion will undoubtedly make you a great and impactful therapist for anyone serious about his/her well-being.”
