How Haylee’s approaches work online

Haylee often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy which focuses on identifying personal values and taking small actions toward them while learning to tolerate difficult feelings. This approach can help with anxiety, low mood, and life transitions. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at how thoughts and behaviours keep problems going and uses practical exercises to change those patterns.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Haylee will talk with each person about their goals and try different methods to see what fits best. She adjusts the plan over time so the work stays useful and relevant to the person’s life.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to make therapy more flexible. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can be shorter check-ins or work well with lower bandwidth, live chat suits people who prefer typing, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between meetings. These options help people fit therapy around work, family, and travel.
