Background and approach

Conversations are aimed at clear steps people can use between meetings. Her background includes work in inpatient and residential settings and with adoption, foster care, and attachment issues. That experience informs how she approaches family problems and parenting stress.
She can talk through grief, trauma, and anger with practical tools and pacing that fits each person. Dr. Hackley offers several ways to meet, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging.

How these approaches work online
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and aligning sessions with what matters most to the person. The therapist follows the client's lead, reflects concerns, and helps set practical goals for change. This approach fits issues like relationship strain, parenting stress, and self-esteem difficulties.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps people notice patterns in their thinking and behavior. Sessions include trying simple experiments between meetings and learning coping skills to reduce anxiety, anger, or depressive moods. CBT is useful when someone wants clear steps to reduce symptoms and improve daily functioning.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to emphasize client-centered work, CBT, or a blend that fits the person's needs.
Online therapy offers flexibility in how people connect. Video calls work well for longer conversations and visual cues. Phone sessions can be a good shorter check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging fit people who prefer writing, need brief check-ins, or want support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules and daily life.
