If your life had a resumé, “chameleon” would be at the top. You’re so good at figuring out others’ needs, they’d never suspect that you have them too. If you were honest with yourself, though, you’d admit how stressful it is to live for other people. You’re terrified you’ll lose relationships if you speak up or say no. Your energy is drained or you feel resentful. You’re exhausted from wondering if others like you or approve of you. If you make choices that disappoint others, you feel guilty and...
My clients describe me as warm, validating, trustworthy, engaged, a good communicator, collaborative, and focused on my clients’ goals. Many of my clients have feelings of guilt and shame and believe something is wrong with them, or they are the problem. They may develop people pleasing behaviors to maintain harmony or get approval in their relationships. They struggle with self image and turn on themselves through blame and anger. I provide a safe emotional space to help clients ident...

Hello! My name is Halley and, as a therapist, it is my intention to look beyond the symptoms being presented to identify the root of the problem and to make space for you as a whole person, not just a diagnosis or a label. This often looks like examining our most intimate relationships, the family system, and what connections or patterns exist between the two. If you find yourself often wondering "Why am I like this?" and "Why does this keep happening?,” then we may be a good fit - especiall...

Only when a client feels that they are fully heard, understood, accepted and valued without judgment, does change occur. These key factors are manifest through active li...
