My clinical style is an eclectic mix of relational, psychodynamic, person-centered, and CBT ; delivered in a compassionate and direct way.
Before I'm a therapist, I'm a person who loves to laugh, loves a really good workout, and not afraid to take risks! My professional life has taken me through Fortune 500 environments to small entrepreneurial ventures and almost everything in between. Life continues to teach me that being human is not always easy and that no one orientation, therapy, or approach works for everyone. I'm a strong believer in the connection between mind and body, so I'm always looking at different ways we can use our physiology to shift our psychology and vice/versa. (mindfulness, breathing, exercise, nutrition)

Dr. Baten incorporates CBT and holistic health in her practice. She helps individuals, children, families and couples develop new strategies to change old patterns. She stimulates emotional growth by teaching people to replace their self-defeating thoughts, feelings and actions with new and more effective ones. Patients are taught to identify the dysfunctional beliefs that lead to negative consequences in their mood and behavior as well as to replace poor food and lifestyle choices. She encourages individuals to be responsible for their own emotions, empowering them to change and overcome unhealthy behaviors that interfere with their ability to enjoy life.

I take these lessons and draw from evidence-based methods, such as motivational interviewing, cognitive behavioral therapy, and dialectical behavioral therapy, to tailor a plan for you.
If you’re lost, disconnected, pondering big questions, or trying to recover from these “unprecedented times,” you’re in good company. Together, we can create the change you seek. I offer a nonjudgmental, supportive space to face doubt and fear, say the unsayable, and do the uncomfortable (but fulfilling) work of growing emotionally and spiritually. We will collaborate to increase self awareness, clarify goals, redirect unhealthy patterns, and discover new possibilities and perspectives. I’m a former health journalist who listens with curiosity, asks key questions, and helps you find the authentic story you're meant to live.

I also use elements of cognitive behavioral therapy, and motivational interviewing.
I tend to be a good fit for clients facing major life transitions, seeking more satisfying and authentic relationships, or struggling with perfectionism or people pleasing habits. People who get the most out of therapy with me tend to be those who are able to commit to a daily wellness practice (ie. journaling, meditation, movement) outside of our sessions, and want a therapist who is validating and generally supportive, but also able to communicate directly and occasionally offer challenging feedback. I work well with young adults, queer or gender-nonconforming people, and those who care deeply about social and political issues.

Everyone wants to feel a sense of security and peace. People tend to develop rigid, inflexible thinking patterns that may feel safe, but limit their ability to remain present. In many of people’s struggles, they end up adding to their own pain. Haley's work aims to build awareness so that people can learn to invite difficult feelings into the space and create flexible thinking patterns, making it possible for healing and growth. Haley empowers her clients by guiding them to practice and implement realistic, everyday skills with a focus on mindfulness that aid in maintaining self-acceptance and confidence.

My training is in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy ( CBT ) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).
I employ evidence-based interventions with adolescents and adults who are struggling with worry, depression, identity, and navigating relationships (with themselves and others). Many of my clients are "high functioning" in that they get up each day, go to work or school (or both) and white knuckle it through the day. Yet, they also contend with issues like pervasive negative thoughts, overwhelming feelings of anxiety or loneliness, struggles with eating behavior and body image, overcoming trauma, focusing attention, and managing difficult relationships. I work with clients to lessen the effects of these struggles on their lives.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists

How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?

Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario (catastrophizing) or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.

When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?

It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.

How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?

To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.

Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?

CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
