About Haylee
Haylee Heckert is a licensed professional counselor (LPC) who helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety and stress. She is direct and approachable, and she focuses on building a respectful, collaborative relationship so people feel heard. Haylee aims to help clients set clear goals and make practical plans to meet them.
Haylee keeps sessions warm and straightforward. She listens for what matters most and works with each person to make small, doable changes.
Background and approach
Her work often addresses anxiety, depression, ADHD, grief, and responses to trauma and abuse. She uses client-centered methods that prioritize the individual’s needs and pace. The Gottman Method also informs her work around relationship patterns and communication concerns.
Together these approaches guide conversations and skill-building in session. Haylee has three years of professional experience as an LPC and has worked in college and inpatient settings during training. That background gives her experience with common life transitions, panic and social anxiety, and parenting stressors.
She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. In the first sessions she helps people define goals and creates practical plans to reach them. She stays open to feedback about how sessions are going and adjusts her approach to match each person’s needs and preferences.
How these approaches work online
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and responding to the person in front of the therapist. It emphasizes understanding, acceptance, and building goals together; this approach helps with anxiety, depression, and self-esteem concerns by prioritizing each person's experience. The Gottman Method looks at communication patterns and practical skills that improve interactions and reduce repeated conflicts; it is useful for people who want clearer communication and fewer arguments.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Haylee will help figure out what fits best by talking about goals, symptoms, and preferences. She adjusts methods over time and invites feedback so sessions stay useful and focused on the client's priorities.
Online formats make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video calls allow face-to-face conversations and shared exercises, phone sessions use less bandwidth and can be a simpler check-in, and live chat or text-based messaging works for brief updates or when typing feels easier. These options let people choose what works best for timing, comfort, and practical needs.
