Hi, I’m Hayley Hook (she/her), a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with eight years of experience supporting children and families through life’s toughest challenges. I earned my Bachelor of Social Work with a minor in Psychology from Indiana State University and my Master of Social Work from Indiana University.

I work with children ages 5 and up and their families navigating anxiety, trauma, neurodivergence, social-emotional challenges, family conflict, and school-related concerns. Using play-based interventions, trauma-informed approaches, and mindfulness, I help kids process emotions, manage behaviors, and grow in a safe and supportive space. I’m AutPlay Certified and currently completing training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to deepen my trauma-focused skills. I specialize in creating affirming, safe spaces—especially for neurodivergent kids and those with big emotions who may feel misunderstood or stuck. I view parents as essential collaborative partners and work alongside families to build connection, understanding, and lasting change. Whether through individual or family therapy, my approach is personalized because each person and family is unique.

Reaching out for support takes courage, and I’m so glad you’re here. You are worthy of care and capable of growth. I truly look forward to connecting and being part of your journey.
