Biography:
Hadley believes that trauma, both present and past, deeply impacts how we show up in and interact with the world—whether we are aware of its influence or not. Trauma manifests in numerous ways at multiple points in our lives, and is unique to each person. Therapy allows you to reclaim agency and move away from the shame, grief, and fear that so often take hold over our narratives, allowing space for healing and exploration. Using a strengths-based and empowerment focused lens, Hadley approaches her practice with hope, honesty, and humor. She is particularly passionate about helping clients create space to explore their story, and approach the stories we all tell ourselves with curiosity and compassion.
