Hayley strives to cultivate a healing space that is warm, welcoming, and free from judgment. She prioritizes fostering connection, ensuring safety, and nurturing trust in her therapeutic relationships. Hayley believes therapy can offer a space for folks to unpack and process their experiences, facilitating self-discovery and a path forward towards personal growth and fulfillment. Her counselling approach is rooted in social justice and is trauma-informed, collaborative, client-centred, and strengths-based. She honours clients as experts of their own lives, appreciating their diverse perspectives and knowledge.

Hayley supports clients navigating anxiety, attachment wounds, low mood, relationship conflicts, narcissistic abuse, life transitions, fertility challenges, burnout/stress, and isolation.

She has spent the past fourteen years in the mental health field, enjoying collaboration with diverse groups of folks, including those from BIPOC and 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, sex workers, individuals who use substances,
