Hi, I'm Hailey! I started my private practice about 5 years ago with the mission to create a safe, low-pressure therapeutic space that still offers challenge and self-reflection. I am particularly passionate about exploring the connection between trauma work and body awareness: because as we build body awareness, you may also become aware of events and emotions that have been buried for a long time. I can help you navigate these complicated feelings as they arise in a gentle way that prioritizes safety and autonomy. I love nurturing the connection between body, mind and soul. I've seen how strengthening this connection can transform the way you show up in relationships and the way you view the world. Building this connection has been a deeply personal journey for myself as well, and I'm honored to be a part of this process for my clients. The most gratifying part of my job is seeing how long-held patterns and beliefs can shift for my clients and allow them more space to breathe and honor themselves.

I listen and we learn to judge the behaviors in relation to your goals and ideal self. I approach our initial sessions with structure to allow for clarifying your goals. Once we have a sense of direction, we suspend judgement, and learn to explore your wants, fears, and desires in life. I bring in a calm and humorous approach to allow for different perspectives to emerge with the intent to find out our strengths and deficits to continue learning and discover yourself

Escucho y aprendemos a juzgar los comportamientos en relación con sus metas. Abordo nuestras sesiones iniciales con estructura para que puedas aclarar tus objetivos. Una vez que tenemos un sentido de dirección, suspendemos el juicio y aprendemos a explorar nuestros deseos, miedos y anhelos en la vida. Aporto un enfoque tranquilo y con humor para dejar que surjan diferentes perspectivas con la intención de descubrir nuestras fortalezas y déficits para aprende y descubrír más sobre ti mismo

Psychiatric Mental Health NP

Virtual • Texas


As a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP‐BC) with Radiance Psychiatry and Wellness, I take a whole‐person approach to mental health care. I recognize that emotional well‐being is shaped by many factors — physical health, stress, relationships, and life experiences — and I work with clients to address each of these areas.

I have experience supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, trauma, mood disorders, and life transitions. My approach blends medication management with supportive therapy, patient education, and lifestyle‐based strategies. I strive to create a welcoming, culturally sensitive space where clients feel empowered, understood, and supported.

My goal is to help you build resilience, gain insight, and move toward a healthier, more balanced life.
