I have over 38 years of experience helping children, adults, and families navigate complex emotional and relational challenges. I work from a family-systems and strength-based perspective, focusing on understanding patterns that contribute to ongoing stress and disconnection.
I am direct, thoughtful, and collaborative in my approach. I work with ADHD, anxiety, depression, school concerns, divorce, and family relationship challenges. When working with children, I believe caregiver involvement is essential for meaningful and lasting change.

Hello, I’m Hayley Craig! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 7 years as a practicing therapist and over 15 years of experience in the field of mental health. I have worked in multiple settings like community mental health, integrated care, and group practice. Through my private practice I provide compassionate evidence-based care.
I believe therapy should be a space clients feel safe enough to be bravely honest and themselves. I provide a warm, down-to-earth environment that helps clients feel comfortable and understood. I enjoy working with teens and adults navigating disordered eating, self-worth, life transitions, stress, anxiety, depression and relationship challenges, with a growing focus on maternal and perinatal mental health. I am currently pursuing perinatal mental health certification to better support patients during pregnancy, postpartum, and beyond.
When life looks “fine” from the outside but feels overwhelming on the inside, therapy can help you slow down and find your footing again. I’m an LCSW with nearly 30 years of experience in the mental health field and over 20 years providing therapy to adults navigating anxiety, burnout, chronic stress, emotional overwhelm, work-life imbalance, and major life transitions. I especially enjoy working with high-functioning professionals who are used to carrying a lot for others while quietly struggling with pressure, perfectionism, or exhaustion themselves.
Clients often describe my style as calm, steady, practical, and deeply supportive. I help you make sense of what is driving your stress, understand the patterns underneath your anxiety or burnout, and build realistic steps that help you feel more grounded, clear, and in control. I draw from CBT, solution-focused therapy, and mindfulness-based strategies, but I tailor the work to your pace, needs, and goals. If you’re feeling stuck, drained, or ready for something to shift, I offer a space where you can breathe, regroup, and move forward with greater confidence.
What empowers people to change? A clear direction and the tools needed to succeed. Thats why my counseling approach focuses on YOU and taking steps toward your own definition of success. With a mixture of existentialism, family systems, and cognitive therapies, we will work to discover what you hope to change in your life and walk through the steps needed to get there. Whether you are struggling with aspects of your relationships, identity, life stressors, grief, trauma, or you just need some general direction, we will focus on what matters to you.
“I am passionate about helping individuals and families feel heard, supported, and understood. My 20 plus years of professional background includes working closely with children, adults, and families in both home and community-based settings, addressing concerns such as behavioral challenges, family conflict, trauma, and life stressors.
I have a special interest in supporting families, strengthening relationships, and helping clients navigate difficult transitions with confidence and clarity.”
I'm a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Indiana with 11+ years of experience working with teens and adults. I help people navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship stress, and major life transitions, with a particular focus on self-worth, healthy boundaries, understanding the patterns that shape our relationships, and finding our way back to ourselves.
A lot of the work I do is about figuring out who you are, what you want, and what healthy connection actually looks like—whether that's in dating, marriage, family, or friendships. Sometimes we lose ourselves trying to keep everyone else happy, and part of the work is finding your way back.
I'm laid-back, honest, and easy to talk to. I believe therapy should feel like a real conversation, not like you're being judged or talked at. We'll have real conversations, find the humor when we can, and make space for both the hard days and the growth. You don't have to have everything figured out before you start therapy. You just have to show up as you are—or wherever you are in the process of figuring out who you are.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Therapist in South Bend
Finding the right therapist in South Bend starts with identifying what you're looking for. Consider the type of care that fits your situation — whether that's individual therapy for anxiety or depression, couples counseling, or support from a psychiatrist who can manage medication. Providers with specific training in approaches like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) or EMDR may be a good match depending on your goals.
South Bend and the surrounding area, including Mishawaka and Granger, have a range of licensed mental health providers. When comparing options, look at a provider's credentials, areas of focus, and whether they offer virtual or in-person sessions. Reading a provider's bio can give you a sense of their style and help you decide if they're worth reaching out to.
Therapy in South Bend can be expensive without insurance. Using your in-network benefits is one of the most reliable ways to reduce what you pay per session.
