Her style is collaborative and straightforward, with an emphasis on simple strategies people can use between contacts.

  2. Approaches that guide online work

    Hallie draws on Motivational Interviewing to help people clarify their own reasons for change and to strengthen commitment to small steps. This approach is useful when someone feels stuck or unsure how to start making changes.

    She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which focuses on helping people notice difficult feelings while taking actions that match their values. ACT can be helpful for anxiety, depression, chronic health stressors, and when someone wants clearer direction about what matters most.

    Finding the right approach is part of the work. Hallie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and situation. She listens to what matters, tries different techniques, and adjusts the plan as progress is made.

    On this platform Hallie provides message-based support rather than live video or phone sessions. If you prefer a different format, confirm current options before booking. Message exchanges can make it easier to fit therapy into busy days, allow time to reflect before replying, and provide short check-ins between longer conversations.
