This Halloween, remember: it’s okay to feel more than festive. 👻

You can be overwhelmed...and grateful.
Anxious...and hopeful.
Happy...and tired.

The best treats this season aren’t candy. They’re kindness, empathy, and support. Everyone is carrying something, and a little compassion can make a big difference. Remember to treat people gently.

Children, teens, and families need behavioral health support now more than ever—and we're helping meet that need.

We’re excited to announce our new collaboration with Pediatric Healthcare Associates, PHA, CT to bring our clinicians directly onsite at PHA locations. Families can now access behavioral health services in the same trusted environment where their children receive primary care.

We've officially launched in Stratford, with Fairfield coming next!

A heartfelt thank you to Dr. Andrea Hagani, PHA, Howard Sovronsky, Connecticut's first Behavioral Health Advocate, State Senator Sujata Gadkar-Wilcox, State Representative Cristin McCarthy Vahey, State Representative Andre Baker, Sarah Lopez from Senator Chris Murphy's team, and Deborah Caviness, Southern Connecticut Black Chamber of Commerce for celebrating this milestone with us yesterday. We couldn’t do it without partners like you.

Together, we’re expanding access, breaking stigma, and building a stronger, healthier community.

We’re thrilled to announce our new collaboration with Pediatric Healthcare Associates, PHA, CT!

Integrating behavioral health directly into pediatric care—so families can access comprehensive support under one roof. Our partnership ensures children receive timely, trusted counseling services within the pediatric practice they already know.

Together, we’re expanding access to compassionate behavioral health care for children, teens, and families where they need it most.

Art has the power to say what words sometimes can’t.

At LifeBridge, we offer art therapy for children, teens, and adults starting at age 6. Whether it’s processing big emotions, reducing stress, or finding new ways to express yourself, art therapy can be a meaningful path toward healing and growth.

You don’t need to be an artist, just come as you are.
Call us at 203-368-4291 to schedule an appointment.

Some people are scared of ghosts. Others? Scared of opening up about how they’re really doing.

This October, let’s normalize checking in on ourselves and each other. Mental health isn’t something to hide behind a mask (even a cute Halloween one).

And while you’re picking pumpkins, planning costumes, or sipping something pumpkin-spiced, remember to take time for you. This season is a great reminder that self-care isn’t selfish. It’s essential.

If you’re feeling off or just need someone to talk to, help is here. Call us at 203-368-4291 to schedule an appointment.
