Therapeutic Approaches and Accessible Online Support

Hayley uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help clients identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors. CBT is practical and focused, often used for anxiety, depression, stress, and problems that respond well to skills and structured practice.

She also draws on psychodynamic therapy to explore how past experiences and relationship patterns influence present feelings and behaviors. This approach can be helpful for understanding long-standing emotional themes, attachment issues, and difficulties that repeat across relationships.

When trauma or abuse is a central concern, Hayley incorporates trauma-focused work that attends to the emotional and practical impact of traumatic experiences and supports recovery at a pace that feels manageable.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Hayley will work with each person to clarify goals, consider preferences, and adapt methods so therapy fits individual needs rather than expecting a single method to suit everyone.

Online therapy with Hayley is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options provide flexibility for busy schedules, make it easier to maintain continuity of care across life changes, and allow clients to engage in therapy in ways that feel most comfortable and accessible.
