About Haley Aguero
"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom."
― Anais Nin
Haley believes that people are the experts on themselves, and that they can thrive given a warm environment, unconditional positive regard, and empathetic understanding. She believes in a holistic view of the client and the importance of looking at all aspects of a person’s life to create a clear picture of their story, and how best to care for them. She believes helping clients understand their emotions, thoughts, and feelings allows them to develop a stronger sense of confidence and self-assurance. She utilizes creative and expressive arts to facilitate self-expression, growth, and healing.
Haley is a Georgia native and enjoys singing, going to musicals, and crocheting blankets for her loved ones. She loves taste testing new coffee shops, and taking her dachshund, Jake, on nature trails. She has another fur baby, an orange tabby named Simba, that loves to play in her crochet yarn.
Haley is a pre-licensed professional who is working towards licensure as a Licensed Professional Counselor and a Registered Play Therapist. She is currently working under the clinical supervision of Trudy Sprunk, LPC, LMFT, RPT-S, EMDR, CPCS and Jennifer Acker, LPC, NCC, CMAC
