About Haley

Haley Cigarroa is a licensed professional counselor with a focus on helping people navigate stress, anxiety, and family challenges. She holds the LPC-MHSP credential and practices in Tennessee.

Background and approach

Haley brings four years of clinical experience to her work and centers the person in each session. Haley listens for what matters most to each person and then helps set small, practical goals.

Sessions often include talking through communication problems, parenting strains, or feelings like guilt, shame, and anger. She also supports people coping with pregnancy and postpartum depression, adoption and foster care experiences, and the demands placed on caregivers.

Her approach blends Internal Family Systems with client-centered listening and cognitive-behavioral tools. Mindfulness skills and motivational interviewing are also woven into sessions when useful.

The result is a mix of understanding, concrete strategies, and practical steps clients can try between meetings. Haley pays attention to the role of faith when it matters to a client, and she aims to create space for each person’s values.

She helps people explore forgiveness, self-love, and impulsivity with a steady, compassionate presence. Young adults and those in blended family situations often find the structure helpful.

Overall, Haley focuses on clear communication and doable changes. She helps people find clarity about what they want to change and takes small steps toward those goals.

The work is collaborative and paced to fit each person’s needs.

How Haley's Approaches Translate to Online Work

Internal Family Systems helps people notice the different parts of themselves and how those parts interact, which can make emotions like shame or anger easier to understand. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and following the client's lead, creating space for a person to tell their story in their own words. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers practical strategies to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which is useful for anxiety, panic, and mood concerns.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Haley will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best based on goals, preferences, and what shows up in sessions. She mixes listening with hands-on tools so the plan can shift as progress is made.

Confirm the exact session formats before booking so you know what options are offered. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it, and let people use mindfulness or CBT homework in real-life moments. Licensed professionals can guide how to adapt skills between meetings so therapy feels useful in everyday life.
