Therapeutic approach

Haley has a passion for the Internal Family System approach, and through this theory emphasizes spiritual direction. The principle behind this type of therapy is that we all have “parts” within ourselves, sub personalities, which have different perspectives, motivations, goals, memories, and pain. IFS is a non-pathologizing approach which holds the belief that every part has a positive intention, even if it comes across as counterproductive or seems to cause dysfunction in the person’s life. Each person’s system is working to respond to its experience in the best way it knows. It is the therapist’s role to guide the client in an exploration of their parts and assist the client in understanding how to unburden and rebalance the different parts so that the core self-qualities can become clearer.

Haley excels in working with individuals who have experienced trauma, anxiety, depression, and ADHD/ADD. She also has a special interest in couples preparing for marriage, marital issues, infidelity, and restoration. She has a heart for helping married couples who are struggling to thrive and find healing even through the most devastating of times or simply when they have grown apart.

She has a passion for helping couples and individuals through a biblically-based, Internal Family Systems, Cognitive-behavioral, and solution-focused approach.

In addition to Haley’s counseling experience, which includes couples, individual therapy, and group therapy, Haley has led and participated in different Bible studies in her college and adult life. Haley and her husband Matt have been married over 12 years and have 2 children.

Haley enjoys being involved in her current home church where she directs the kids ministry. Haley’s hope is to be the hands and feet of Jesus. Haley not only has experienced life’s heartbreaking trials and challenges but has also witnessed personal and marital restoration through the Lord’s goodness. The Lord offers fullness of life, which Haley believes can be experienced as people put their trust and faith in Him.
