Everything Haley lists on their public professional profile, in their own terms.

Online support

Evidence-based tools delivered online

Haley uses practical, evidence-based techniques to help people manage intense emotions and improve daily functioning. One common approach focuses on skills for managing anxiety and panic attacks - learning breathing and grounding strategies, pacing exposure to anxiety triggers, and building routines that reduce reactivity. Another area emphasizes communication and relationship skills - practicing clearer expression, setting boundaries, and repairing misunderstandings to reduce conflict and isolation.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Haley works with each person to identify what feels most useful and adjusts methods as goals change. She checks in about progress and adapts tasks so they fit real life.

Online therapy here uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make care flexible. Video is good for fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit a break at work or require less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are handy for brief check-ins, homework support, or when typing feels easier. These formats help people keep continuity of care while fitting therapy into busy days.
