I am licensed in Colorado and Kansas with 12 years of professional work experience. I have experience working on college campuses, with police, fire and EMS, in private practice and with professional and semi-professional athletes…in fact, my specialty training is in sport psychology. I have a love and curiosity for people and enjoy navigating through solutions with my clients. I try to find the right balance between being directive and reflective and have worked for over a decade to discern which one is needed in every session to give the client what they need at any given moment in session.
In my first career, I was a trainer and worked in college sports. If you are interested in healthy behavior change, coming back from an injury or wanting to get in shape or change your fitness...we can work on that too!

Dr Hale is a great, he listens and gives such sound advice and guidance. I was apprehensive due to past counselors but he is so kind, patient and considerate. I feel seen and know it’s a safe place to grow. So very grateful I got matched with him. His guidance is helping my relationship so much!

So far my experience has been of the utmost help. I find Dr. Hale to be forthcoming in providing me with feedback, which is extremely valuable. I don't need a sounding board, I am looking for help and he has been very communicative, he 'hears' not just what I am saying, but delves deeper which opens my eyes to things I haven't considered. I'm grateful and look forward to learning and healing even more.
