She supports people dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, divorce and separation, domestic violence, and family problems. Other areas she addresses include Disruptive Mood Dysregulation Disorder (DMDD), self-harm, post-traumatic stress, isolation, and issues many women face.
Her style is collaborative and focused on skills people can use between sessions. She emphasizes pacing that fits each person’s comfort level and builds on strengths already present.
For someone who wants clear, practical help with emotional and relational problems, Holley offers steady, skill-based work grounded in her clinical experience and social work training.

How her approaches translate to virtual work
Her practice uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on skills and problem solving. One common approach is skills-based work for mood regulation, which means learning concrete strategies to manage intense feelings and reduce daily disruption. This approach is often used for mood disorders and helps with steadying emotions between sessions.An additional focus is trauma-informed care, which involves pacing conversations about distressing events and teaching grounding or coping strategies. That approach helps people process past stress while building strategies to handle triggers in everyday life.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will review your needs and goals, try methods that fit those aims, and adjust plans based on what works for you. Clients and therapist decide together which techniques to keep using.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and remove travel time. Therapists can also adapt exercises and worksheets for use during or between sessions to help integrate changes into daily routines.
