01About Haylee
Haylee Heckert is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who aims to make therapy approachable and practical. She focuses on building a respectful, warm relationship so people feel heard and understood. Her style is collaborative and straightforward, inviting open conversation about what helps most in sessions.
Haylee draws on client-centered principles to focus on each person's goals and values. She works with common concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress, ADHD, and grief.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with relationship struggles, family problems, anger, trauma and abuse, and parenting challenges. In sessions she helps clients set clear, manageable goals and builds small steps toward those goals. Conversations tend to be guided by what matters most to the client rather than strict agendas.
She pays attention to how people relate to others and to themselves, and uses that information to shape the work. Haylee has three years of counseling experience and has worked across settings including college counseling, school-aged children, and an inpatient adult internship. That variety informs how she tailors support for different life stages and situations.
She encourages questions about the process and checks in about progress along the way. People who want a collaborative listener and a practical plan may find her approach useful. Sessions aim to be a place to name what’s most difficult, try new ways of coping, and build forward movement at a pace that fits each person.

How these approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client’s lead. The therapist offers empathy and reflection so people can clarify their goals and make choices that feel right for them; this approach helps with anxiety, depression, self-esteem, and coping with life changes.The Gottman Method is practical for relationship concerns. It looks at how people communicate, manages conflict, and rebuilds connection through specific skills and exercises that can be practiced between sessions to improve interaction patterns.
Figuring out the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences, and what has or hasn’t worked before, then recommend ways to proceed. That decision is made together and can be adjusted as needs change.
Online therapy offers several practical options. Video calls let people see facial cues and work through exercises in real time. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can be easier during a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging allow for quick check-ins, written reflections, and flexibility when scheduling is tight. These formats make it easier to keep regular contact and to fit therapy into a busy life.
