My approach is holistic(mind, body and spirit) and I work with individuals and couples primarily around self-acceptance/love, learning how to achieve intimacy and breaking free of conditioning. Helping you discover your deepest truths and find your purpose, desire and drive in life. I provide an opportunity for people to grow and heal, in a safe, supportive, non-judgmental and nurturing environment. This work helps to heal trauma/ PTSD), depression, low self-esteem, addictions and anxiety. I also welcome those who simply want the added flexibility good therapy can achieve, enabling them to live fuller, richer, happier lives.

You: look great on paper, but deep down you're struggling and ashamed to admit it - especially when others have it so much worse. You're sensitive, idealistic, and creative. You're aware of your potential and people reflect it back to you, but you're having trouble finding traction. You're not connecting with your work the way you want to, and your co-working relationships are "fine," but not satisfying in the way you'd like them to be. It feels like something's missing, but you don't know what and you don't know where to find it. Behind the mask, you feel scared, sad, lonely, insecure, anxious, depressed and may be losing hope.

My work is ultimately about mindful, skillful, and balanced living. Life is short-- I want my clients to enjoy the process regardless of what life throws at them. I help people move beyond difficulties such as substance abuse/other compulsions, excessive self-criticism, symptoms of depression and anxiety, difficulties with relationships, trauma, and other human struggles. My approach is authentic and warm yet exceptionally direct. I'll help identify inadequate coping patterns so you can replace them with proven skills that lead to high quality living. The ultimate goal is radical self-love/acceptance.

Tired of feeling exhausted all the time? Are you moving through life but not fully living it? You're not alone, and it doesn't have to be this way. My aim is to help you cultivate resilience, reconcile past pains, and forge a path toward greater well-being. I specialize in working with teens and adults navigating the complexities of trauma, focusing on dissociation, substance use/addiction, chronic illness, and disordered eating. My approach emphasizes fostering positive self-esteem, setting personal boundaries, exploring intersectional identities, practicing non-violent communication, and enhancing the mind-body connection.

I imagine you’ve been hard on yourself lately. Thoughts like, “you’re not good enough” or “you should be over this by now,” play on repeat, unchecked. My approach is one focused on self-compassion, the art of reworking internal monologues to respond to yourself in a gentler, more understanding manner. You may not feel ready or deserving of treating yourself more kindly, but I would be honored to hold that warm space for you until you are.

I particularly enjoy working with young adults who are going through a difficult time navigating the transition from early to mature adulthood, perhaps wrestling with issues around relationships, work, family, self-identity and performance; struggling with chronic feelings of anxiety, depression, or low self-esteem; or feeling they don't have the tools they need to manage life. I have over 25 years of experience working with both women and men; all are welcome.

You're looking for better coping skills and fulfillment in your life. You want less anxiety and more balance. You want to find peace with yourself. You're trying to decide whether to stay in the relationship or not. You're questioning your life choices. I get it! I've been there! I help people work through life's transitions. Learn how to cope with feeling overwhelmed and lost. Learn to trust yourself and love yourself more. Increase self-esteem. Release shame. Set boundaries. Build true self-care. I also specialize in substance abuse and addiction, whether you are sober-curious, brand new to sobriety, or in long-term recovery.

I bring compassion, curiosity and extensive experience to help clients who may be stuck in repetitive patterns or struggles, or facing unexpected challenges. If you are at a loss for what to do or how to feel better, we can work together to understand what brings you to therapy, relieve distress and develop resilience to help you move forward. My style is warm, collaborative, and grounded in effective practices that calm anxiety, strengthen relationships and foster communication, connection and empathy. I create a safe and nonjudgmental space to attune and meet clients where they are every step of the way.

Difficult life events or trauma may have shaped your past, but you have the power to define your future. Let’s rewrite your story together, focusing on your innate strengths and building your capacity to create a fulfilling life. Together, we can make sense of overwhelming emotions, work through relationship challenges, and transform shame into self-esteem.

My name is Haley Hewitt and I specialize in individual, couples, and family therapy. I believe that because we are complex and unique individuals, an approach that integrates both mind and body is essential for the healing, growth, and resiliency that is the goal of therapeutic counseling. Treatment specializations include: depression and anxiety, couples counseling, children and adolescents, psychedelic-assisted therapies, stress and/or pain management, life transitions, self-esteem, mental illness/mental health issues, gender and/or sexual identity, and LGBTQIA. I am trained in EMDR, Brainspotting, IFS, DBT/CBT & Somatics.

I work with individuals and treat a range of issues including depression, anxiety, loneliness, emotional intimacy, self esteem, and relationship struggles. I also specialize in treating adults and adolecents with eating disorders. I have worked with eating and body image disturbances for 15 plus years. I am passionate about helping people develop a comfortable relationship with their bodies, food, and exercise through a non-diet approach.

I offer a warm, honest, and collaborative space within which we can explore issues that are troubling you. My aim is for you to feel more fully alive, to find the flexibility and resilience for stronger connections to others and a more vigorous pursuit of your goals and dreams. Change is possible. Deep, long-lasting change comes from within and radiates out into the world. I welcome people of all ages, backgrounds, and experiences. The areas I work with include depression, anxiety, trauma, intergenerational trauma and stress, life transitions, illness, grief, anger, and career, relationship, parenting, and self-esteem issues.

My style of working is thoughtful and direct. I am committed to helping people discover and enhance their emotional capacity in order to create more satisfying lives. Through the transformative experience of being deeply understood by another in an authentic, safe and honest relationship, people can transform destructive patterns into more satisfying expressions of self.

I work with adults who struggle with depression and anxiety. I help my clients understand themselves and what triggers them, and importantly, I provide skills to help them manage their reactions to the stress and difficulties in their lives.

Are you struggling with discouragement and worrisome thoughts? Are you a mom who is struggling with thoughts of self loathing, guilt, feeling depressed and questioning your ability to be a good mother? Do you find it challenging to be in control of your own thinking patterns, your feelings, struggling to connect with your loved ones and perhaps feeling stuck? It's easy to lose touch with ourselves when circumstances and experiences overwhelm us. I am here to help you reconnect with your inner strengths, challenge negative thoughts and feelings of yourself and empower you to feel in control of your lives.

Anxiety can leave you feeling paralyzed, trapped in a constant battle against your own mind. You may feel pressure to project a strong facade but deep down you're struggling with nagging self-doubt, persistent worries, and an overwhelming sense of emotional turmoil. The pressure to appear confident and in control at all times is exhausting - you just want to feel at ease in your own skin again. As a therapist who specializes in supporting men through anxiety, I understand how isolating and debilitating this experience can be.

Change is terrifying, but it can also be beautiful. It can be difficult to navigate cultural, societal, familial, & even personal expectations to give life to your true authentic self. From navigating anxiety, working to understand your sexual/gender identity, navigating what aspects of your cultural make sense for you, depression, or even just trying to get the world to acknowledge you as the person you are - I'm so glad you haven't given up. The change you're working towards will be worth it and oh-so spectacular. I know you have the power, skills, & desire to Transform Your Story. I'm honored to help you any way I can.

Are you experiencing fight, flight or freeze responses to everyday life stressors, or feeling paralyzed to make change? EMDR therapy for trauma and PTSD could be a great fit for you. Unprocessed traumatic memories can get "stuck" in your nervous system, causing you to operate from survival mechanisms that no longer serve you, and which block you from reaching your full life potential. Whether you're hoping to resolve trauma, reduce your "inner critic," find more purpose and meaning in your life, or improve your relationships, I'm here to guide you toward the growth and healing you seek.

I welcome individuals willing to engage in an active, reflective treatment and try new ways of thinking and relating, both within and outside of therapy. I enjoy working with individuals in professions such as law, medicine, and engineering who seek to better manage the pressures that come with responsibility, and with artists, musicians, and writers, for whom creative expression is an integral part of emotional health. My other specialties include coping with medical illness and navigating caregiving challenges. My practice is open to adults of all ages, cultural backgrounds, gender identities, and sexual orientations.
