Haley Grimes, LAC

Licensed in: New Jersey
Licensed Associate Counselor

I’ve always loved having meaningful conversations with people, especially about the things that make them feel confident and helping them grow in areas where confidence might be harder to find. 

Outside of therapy, I’ve combined my passions for mental health and creativity by starting my own business. Through my blog, social media, and podcast, I work to make conversations about mental health more common and accessible. I’ve even designed a line of gender and plus-size-inclusive merchandise that centers around the idea of embracing yourself fully—inside and out.

In therapy, I especially enjoy working with people who are navigating anxiety, depression, body image issues, body dysmorphia, and eating disorders. These are deeply personal challenges, but they’re also opportunities for growth, healing, and finding new ways to connect with yourself.

I believe that to show up as your most genuine self, you need to be willing to grow in all areas of your life. Mental health often gets overlooked because it’s not as visible as physical health—until it becomes unmanageable. That’s why I think mental health should be a priority in everything we do. There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to improving your mental well-being. It’s about finding what works best for you and your unique journey.

Building trust and rapport is a top priority, so you feel comfortable sharing as much or as little as you’re ready for. It’s a privilege to be part of your mental health journey, and I’m here to support you every step of the way.
