Train Your Inner Terrain
Counseling for Runners & Athletes
Where your mind gets the same care, intention, and training your legs do
Built for the Long Haul
More than Motivation- This is Mental Training
You’ve got the miles, the gear, the playlists, the grit.
But when your mind hits a wall — doubt, burnout, perfectionism, pressure — you need more than a hype song or a “you’ve got this!” text from a friend.
At Trailhead Counseling DFW, I blend clinical expertise with real-life endurance experience to help you build the kind of mind that can actually go the distance.
Not just race-ready — steady, grounded, and unshakeably you.
This is where motivation stops being your fuel…
and mental resilience, joy, and peace start taking over.
Let’s train the part of you that matters most — the one behind the miles.

Hey, I’m Haleigh
— a therapist, runner, and human who believes healing doesn’t have to feel heavy. I help runners untangle their relationship with food, performance, and identity so they can find peace that lasts longer than a finish line high.
Around here, we talk about the hard stuff — perfectionism, body image, burnout — with honesty, grace, and a little bit of laughter. You don’t have to choose between loving your sport and healing your mind. There’s space for both.

Therapy On The Run is where raw conversations meet real terrain — tackling the mental side of endurance with grit, honesty, and a whole lot of heart. From eating disorders to burnout, perfectionism to performance pressure, we go there. Because strong minds make stronger miles.
