About Haley

Haley Harmer, LPC, is a licensed professional counselor in Oklahoma with 11 years of clinical experience. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, relationship and family challenges, parenting concerns, grief, addictions, and issues around intimacy and self-esteem. Haley also addresses ADHD, bipolar concerns, career questions, and coping with major life changes.

Haley uses straightforward, skill-based strategies in session. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centered methods, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). Sessions focus on noticing thoughts and habits, testing new responses, and building practical skills for everyday problems.

Her approach emphasizes clear goals and step-by-step plans. Conversations cover immediate concerns and small experiments clients can try between meetings. Haley pays attention to family dynamics, adoption and foster care issues, attachment, and communication patterns when those areas are relevant.

Clients can expect work on boundaries, codependency, commitment questions, and difficult emotion management like anger or compassion fatigue. She also addresses body image, eating concerns, fertility and caregiver stress when those arise. Haley adapts plans as progress is reviewed so the work stays focused on what matters most right now.

Haley works in English and practices in Oklahoma. Her LPC credential stands for Licensed Professional Counselor and reflects state licensure. For people who want structured, practical therapy, she offers clear steps and active collaboration.

How Haley integrates practical approaches in online work

Haley draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thought patterns and test new behaviors. CBT sessions typically include clear goals, behavior experiments, and techniques to reduce symptoms like anxiety or low mood.

She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support values-based action and to teach skills for living with difficult thoughts and feelings. ACT can be useful for people facing chronic stress, grief, or life transitions who want to live by chosen priorities rather than being led by every feeling.

Attachment-Based Therapy is another approach she brings when family background or early relationships shape current patterns. That work looks at how connection styles influence communication, intimacy, and caregiver stress.

Choosing the best approach is part of the work together. Haley reviews goals, preferences, and what has or has not helped before. She will suggest methods and adjust them collaboratively as progress is checked.

Confirm the specific session formats before booking since formats were not specified in the profile. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into work and family schedules, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Therapists often combine skill practice, worksheets, and brief between-session tasks so the work continues between meetings.
