Hailey Hughes

Hailey Hughes

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Hi, I'm Hailey! I started my private practice about 5 years ago with the mission to create a safe, low-pressure therapeutic space that still offers challenge and self-reflection. I am particularly passionate about exploring the connection between trauma work and body awareness: because as we build body awareness, you may also become aware of events and emotions that have been buried for a long time. I can help you navigate these complicated feelings as they arise in a gentle way that prioritizes safety and autonomy. I love nurturing the connection between body, mind and soul. I've seen how strengthening this connection can transform the way you show up in relationships and the way you view the world. Building this connection has been a deeply personal journey for myself as well, and I'm honored to be a part of this process for my clients. The most gratifying part of my job is seeing how long-held patterns and beliefs can shift for my clients and allow them more space to breathe and honor themselves.

Herlinda Rodriguez

Herlinda Rodriguez

Therapist

Virtual • Texas


Hi, I’m Liz. I’m a bilingual therapist, and I feel most authentic when I can move naturally between both languages. I’m a Texan through and through, with plenty of Tex Mex Spanglish to show for it. I connect deeply with clients who are navigating family issues, generational trauma, cultural expectations, and the process of outgrowing beliefs or roles they were taught as children. I enjoy helping clients understand themselves better by exploring attachment patterns, nervous system responses, relationships, and the gap between who they were raised to be and who they are becoming. I have a heart for working with families, children, and parents because I believe it is easier to help children build healthier coping skills early than to wait until they are struggling later in life. I also find deep meaning in working with adults who are healing their inner child, breaking cycles, and learning how to live in a way that feels more honest and whole. My work often supports clients dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship issues, stress management, parenting concerns, and life transitions.
