I feel incredibly fortunate to have gotten to work with Dr. Haley for a year. She is an outstanding therapist, and I will forever be grateful for her wisdom and dedication in helping me understand the depth of my internal struggles and behaviours. She is tenacious, compassionate, and was very responsive. She is also very skilled at being able to deliver difficult truths (that I needed to hear) in a warm yet empowering way. I have learned so much about myself and the knowledge she imparted on me has been invaluable, and something I will never forget. Thanks to her guidance I feel empowered to cultivate the life I want. Thank you Dr. Haley!

Written on Dec 09, 2022 after therapy with Shawna for 2 months on issues concerning stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, self esteem, and coping with life changes

I have been working with Dr. Haley for approximately 3 months.
She is warm, respectful, listens intently and always makes you feel safe in the therapy space. She has a great capacity for remembering your issues and details from one session to the next and makes an effort to keep the sessions focused. It is probably too early to comment on the outcome of our work together, but already, she has helped me look at my current problems with new perspectives and compassion, and is helping me take the steps to build a stronger me and future. She responds quickly to any messages you may send her. I'm looking forward to seeing how our work together evolves. Thank you!

Written on May 04, 2021 after therapy with Shawna for 2 days on issues concerning depression, stress, anxiety, relationship issues, family conflicts, trauma and abuse, self esteem, anger management, career difficulties, coping with life changes, and compassion fatigue

I had my first session scheduled several days in advance with Dr. Haley. She did not show up for our session which is very disappointing and did not help my emotional state. I would hope that the doctors on here or anywhere would be professional and come to the scheduled appointments.

Work with me!
