Like many of us, Haley remembers the teachers from her educational journey that taught her to believe in herself, and values how they made her feel seen. In her role as a school counselor at Bay, she is passionate about helping students unlock insight, reframe challenges, and grow into who they want to become. Her approach integrates self-awareness, interpersonal skills, resilience, emotional well-being, and stress management — while affirming each student's unique identity and lived experience. A few of her favorite things include cappuccinos, roadtrips, journaling, Mary Oliver's poetry, yoga, solo travel, Highway 1, Brene Brown's Words on Vulnerability, and meeting new people.

Precept affinity: We value living with kindness and honesty; we are careful truth tellers.
“I love this precept because it reminds us that honesty and kindness are not at odds, but can walk hand in hand. This precept also speaks to the power of language- that truth, when spoken with care, has power and the potential to heal.”
