As a senior therapist at Zackson Psychology Group, I enjoy working with children and adolescents that may be struggling with anxiety, depression, ADHD, behavioral or family issues.

Haley provides evidence-based therapy for children, teens, and adults. She has had the opportunity to provide care in private practice, school, and medical settings. This array of experiences has fostered her ability to understand clients through a multi-disciplinary lens and draw upon a multitude of evidence-based treatments, such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Motivational Interviewing, Behavioral Activation, Prevention-Focused Care, Crisis Intervention, Trauma-Focused CBT, and Exposure and Response Prevention. She utilizes these therapies to target anxiety, stress, depression, OCD, trauma, and executive functioning deficits.

I believe that the therapy relationship has the ability to provide healing, growth and change. Finding a therapist who helps you feel safe, supported and challenged is central to this process. My style is warm and curious as well as direct and challenging. I am an active participant in the process as we seek out the hard and stuck places that get in the way of balance and meaningful relationships.

Do you want to understand the ways that experiences, systems, and relationships inform the stories you tell? I am a white, queer, transmasculine person, and I was initially drawn to therapy because I believe that trans people should have the option to work with trans clinicians. While in graduate school, much of my research explored the impact that incongruent mirroring has on trans people. My hope is that I can build a supportive environment where clients see themselves and see understanding and acceptance reflected back to them.

Today, life often presents us with an unsettling tension between overwhelming uncertainty or loss, and a relentless demand to be productive, happy, and to have a strong sense of identity or purpose. Whether one is exploring psychotherapy due to crisis, impasse, troubling symptoms, or relational concerns, all people can benefit from a space where they can make meaning of their experiences and thoughts in a collaborative way. Though psychodynamic treatment requires vulnerability and curiosity, it is an opportunity for transformative self-exploration and healing that will be contained in a space of attentive listening and care.

For over 22 years, I've enjoyed helping people to develop strategies to reduce stress/anxiety, depression, and successfully navigate common life issues related to career, life transitions, and grief/loss. As we all are trying to cope with the current crisis, we are having to adjust and find ways to maintain our mental health, relationships, friendships, and health. I offer phone and video (FaceTime & Zoom) sessions until we get out of this crisis and can resume office visits. I have sliding scale rates based on household income. Please contact me for more information. Wishing everyone the very best during these challenging times.

Together you and I will pinpoint your main issues and goals. Using a foundation of trust and openness, we will uncover roots of thoughts, feelings and behaviors that are not serving you so that you may heal and grow to a fuller potential. I make it a priority to treat each person as an individual, with a unique history and specific needs. My style is nonpathologizing. Psychotherapy is not about delving into sickness, but rather about becoming aware of how competent, capable, and amazing you really are.

My primary goal as your therapist is to help you navigate challenges through a non-judgmental, collaborative and client-centered relationship. As an Afro-Latina female clinician, one of my passions is to serve people in my community and to help them find meaning in their lives. I employ an integrative approach to therapy to meet individual needs. This means that I integrate various techniques from several modalities to meet you where you are and help you achieve deep healing. The approaches that I use most often are Psychodynamic, Narrative therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral therapy.

Sometimes life does not seem to go how you would like it to. It may feel like everything is building up and you may explode into tears. Perhaps it seems as though the more you have going on the more you feel like not doing anything at all and when you aren’t doing anything you still feel like you should be doing something. Sometimes we find ourselves being overworked and underappreciated not only by other people around us but within ourselves as well.

I have a master's degree in social work from Boston College and have worked with a diverse group of adults and adolescents in various clinical settings. I specialize in helping people with OCD and anxiety disorders, depression, relationship issues, self-esteem, and life transitions, as well as those who have experienced trauma. I also speak both English and French fluently. In our sessions, I will work with you in a flexible and collaborative way. I use evidence-based treatments like CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and motivational interviewing to help you gain a deeper understanding of yourself, and make positive changes in your life.

Amidst the excitement of New York, it can be hard to find a center. Always pursuing the next gold star, promotion, or opportunity can leave you feeling anxious and unfulfilled. You feel like something is missing. You’ve done everything right - getting the education, the job, and the accolades - but you’re not quite sure what it’s all been leading to. Your work/life balance is out of sync, your relationships don’t make you happy, and you're burned out. No matter how many boxes you keep checking off, you still don’t feel “good enough.” It’s a struggle trying to keep everything together and you aren’t sure you can do it anymore.
