Please contact me for availability. I work afternoons and evenings.

I'm Hayley, a warm, intuitive and compassionate Therapist.  I am passionate about helping and supporting you deal with any current or past issues causing you psychological distress or discomfort. I offer a calm, safe space to facilitate healing where you will be listened to, valued and heard.

I specialise in any relationship, communication, identity, self esteem and confidence issues. 

You may be experiencing negative/critical self talk. You may be feeling overwhelmed but struggling to set boundaries and prioritise your needs. You may be feeling stuck, confused, lost, overwhelmed or struggling with your relationships. 

Many of us have unmet needs from childhood which can cause us to repeat patterns of behaviour.  Our past can affect how we think, feel and behave in the present.   It can influence our perceptions, expectations, view of the world and others. 

I work holistically using a variety of theories with an integrative approach to suit each client. This can be through a combination of talking, creative tools or more structured approach to sessions. Whichever feels right for you. We will work collaboratively at your pace with compassion and understanding, 

I value our relationship and connection as human beings. This is at the very heart of what i do. 

Connecting mind, body and soul by developing compassion, clarity, insight and self awareness.  Therapy can help find your voice, facilitate self acceptance, healing, transformation and growth.

My belief is we all have the power to heal. I am passionate about what I do and feel privileged to be able to do this work. To be alongside you, as you walk your own path to create a fulfilling, meaningful and authentic life.

As clients we are vulnerable and taking the first step can feel daunting at any time. It could be the first time you have accessed therapy or talked about your situation. The thought of saying the words out loud may feel scary. I will aim to make you feel welcome and at ease.

I am a fully qualified Therapist and member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ.   I have a wide range of experience working with clients at a local mental health charity and with the NHS. 

In addition to my qualifications, I bring over 20 years of professional experience and expertise from my background in Corporate HR advice/coaching, in both the public and private sector.

I work with adults, face to face, online and by telephone.

I am based at Sapphire Practice rooms with other Therapists in Southernhay, Exeter. It is a welcoming, tranquil space overlooking Southernhay gardens and the Cathedral. There is on-street parking outside.   

What to expect at the Initial phone conversation...

I offer a free 20 minute initial phone conversation where we can discuss what has brought you to therapy

What you may require from our working together.

It's also an opportunity to answer any questions you may have and decide whether I'm the right Therapist for you.

If we agree we can work together, we can book in a first session. 

What to expect at the first session...

During the first session we will talk through the therapeutic agreement between us. This is a written document that forms the basis for the way we work and sets out boundaries for our working relationship, confidentiality and legal information.

I will ask some questions regarding your health, background, will look at what is going on for you right now and build on information you have already shared.

To discuss any goals you may have and your aim for therapy. These may and can change as therapy progresses.

Each session will last up to 60 minutes

We will agree time and frequency of subsequent sessions.

Therapy can be short term or long term. There is no limit on the number of sessions.

To answer any questions you may have. (it's ok if you don't have any).
