02 · In Haley's own words

What Haley says about the work

Reproduced in full and unedited - not summarised, not tightened, not rewritten in a house voice.

Starting therapy can feel like a big step, and it’s not always easy to reach out for support. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, respected, and truly heard. I believe that everyone has a story worth understanding and that meaningful change can happen when you have the right support along the way.

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I work with individuals who may be struggling with anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, relationship challenges, or life transitions. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply looking for a place to process what’s going on in your life, therapy can be a space to slow down, reflect, and begin moving forward.

My approach is collaborative and compassionate. I draw from evidence-based practices while also focusing on your unique experiences and strengths. Together, we’ll work to better understand patterns that may be holding you back, develop practical coping strategies, and build tools that support lasting growth.

I believe therapy should feel like a partnership. My role is not to judge or “fix,” but to walk alongside you, offering guidance, perspective, and support as you work toward the life you want to live.

03 · What happens next

From this page to a first session

Haley practises through BetterHelp, so the route in is BetterHelp's. This is that sequence, written by Maker Therapy from the platform's published process - not a description of Haley's own practice, and not a promise about how quickly anything happens.

  1. A questionnaire, not a booking form

    BetterHelp opens with a set of questions about what you are dealing with, what you want from therapy, and any preferences on the therapist. You are not booking Haley at this point.

  2. Naming Haley specifically

    BetterHelp matches algorithmically by default, so asking for Haley is a step you have to take. There is a field for requesting a specific therapist during sign-up, and you can switch afterwards from your account. Starting from a link on this page does not by itself assign you to Haley.

  3. If the caseload is full

    You will be offered somebody else rather than put on a waitlist. Worth knowing, because it is easy to assume a match is the person you asked for.

  4. The first conversation

    A first session is typically history and orientation: what brought you, what has been tried, what you want to be different. It is also where the questions in the next section belong.

  5. If the fit is wrong

    Changing therapist on BetterHelp does not need a reason. A first session that does not click is common and is not a verdict on therapy. That option existing is the main practical difference between a platform and a private practice.

05 · Provenance

Where every line on this page came from

Haley's name, credential, state, subjects, approaches and biography are read from BetterHelp's therapist roster, which Maker Therapy re-reads once a day; this page reflects the reading taken on 9 Oct 2026. The licence number and NPI are cross-checked against public registers.

The plain-English method descriptions, the first-session walkthrough and the questions are written by Maker Therapy and labelled as such wherever they appear.

Maker Therapy is not BetterHelp, does not take bookings, and has not met Haley. There are no reviews or ratings on this page because we have no way to verify one. If you start therapy through a link here, we may be paid a commission - it does not change your price and it does not affect who appears here or in what order.
