Hello, I'm Haley, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Texas and the proud owner of Greater House Counseling, a private practice dedicated to fostering healing and transformation. With a passion for helping individuals, couples, and families navigate the complexities of life, I specialize in marital and family relationship counseling as well as trauma therapy. My therapeutic approach is holistic, acknowledging the interconnected nature of societal, relational, biological, spiritual, and emotional factors in each person's life.

I draw from various therapeutic models, including Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Internal Family Systems Therapy, EMDR, and Humanistic Therapy interventions. My collaborative stance in therapy views clients as the experts in their own lives, while I offer expertise on relational dynamics, trauma and the brain, attachment wounds, and self-parenting. I work with a diverse range of issues such as stress, anxiety, depression, marital dissatisfaction, grief, LGBT-Q stressors, trauma, addiction, and more.

In addition to my private practice, I've developed a course to support MFT applicants in preparing for the national licensing exam, showcasing my commitment to advancing the field. Currently, I am working on a course designed to empower clients to proactively manage their mental health and overcome trauma.

Haley has also created a course for MFT- applicants to help them pass the national licensing exam. She is knowledgeable and practiced in the field having helped several students prepare for licensure. Haley is currently working on a course to help clients hack their mental health and overcome trauma.

My vision for Greater House Counseling extends beyond individual healing to training other therapists, fostering transformation in hearts, homes, and the world. I firmly believe that changing the world begins with healing ourselves, and as we mend our own hearts, the ripple effect positively influences the relational systems we are a part of. Together, we can change the world—one heart and one home at a time.

Outside of my professional life, I am happily married to my amazing husband Zach. Together, we have served in church leadership and as resident coordinators in a homeless shelter, where we learned firsthand about the devastating effects of family breakdown on homelessness. Guided by our faith and the promise in Haggai 2:9, we believe that healing the family unit is a cornerstone in building the Greater House of God's Kingdom on Earth.

Zach offers business and financial consulting to organizations and individual clients of the GHC. Zach supports Haley in running the clinic and together they provide business and organizational consulting for group dynamics and spiritual formation. Zach owns and has helped start several businesses in the Abilene and DFW areas. He is an investor in people and good ideas and has a knack for putting the right people in the right positions. Together, Zach and Haley also provide marital and premarital consultations.
