I’m Marcella Hayes, I have over 12 years of experience helping individuals manage stress, burnout, grief and life transitions. I specialize in working with client care professionals in high-stress jobs, such as therapists, medical staff, first responders, and educators, helping them build resilience and find balance. While healthy boundaries and self-care are important, I understand they’re not always enough. I can teach you sustainable and actionable techniques to respond to stress differently, helping to calm your nervous system and create lasting change in how you manage stress.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In our first session, you can expect a warm, welcoming space where we’ll get to know each other. I’ll ask questions to understand what brings you in and what you’re hoping to work on. It’s not about diving into deep issues right away, but rather starting with a conversation that helps me understand your needs and goals. You’ll leave with a better sense of how we can work together to make progress, and we’ll create a plan that feels comfortable for you.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I believe my greatest strengths as a provider are my ability to connect with clients and create a safe, supportive environment where they feel heard and understood. My experience in managing my own challenges allows me to approach therapy with empathy and practical solutions. I’m also skilled in combining evidence-based techniques like CBT, EMDR, and Polyvagal Theory to help clients manage stress, build resilience, and achieve emotional balance. My focus is always on empowering clients to regain control and make meaningful progress in their lives.
