Andraya Hayward, MS, LPC, ATR
Hi. I'm Andraya and this is Mo.
My Approach
I blend feminist psychotherapy with animal‑assisted work and art therapy practices. The approach is warm, nonjudgmental, and collaborative, inviting participants into healing spaces rooted in nature, creativity, and authentic connection. Because traditional talk therapy can feel overly familiar for some, art therapy and animal‑assisted therapy are offered as alternative pathways for insight and renewal. These experiential modalities help participants reconnect with themselves in ways that feel restorative, and many are surprised by how meaningful and genuinely transformative animal‑assisted therapy can be.
Specialities
- Mental health providers: may include art‑making, nature‑based grounding, or time with the goats—offering a therapeutic experience that feels different from the work you facilitate.
- End‑of‑life support: may include time with majestic goats in beautiful outdoor Oregon, creating meaningful gifts for loved ones in the comfort of your own location, or having me create art for you based on the life stories you share.
- Eating Disorders: may include exploring your relationship with food and body through art‑making or time with goats; observing goats offers a calming reminder of nourishment and the rhythms of a body at ease.
- Women in Grief: may include experiential of sitting with emotions while having your portrait painted. Please contact for more details.

Gently Guided Pottery
Pottery has a way of mirroring the end-of-life process — a slow, intentional shaping of what matters most, a surrender to forces we can guide but never fully control, and a final firing that transforms something fragile into something enduring.
Clayworks Art Therapy
Just as clay holds the imprint of every touch, a person’s life holds the marks of their relationships, their joys, their grief, and their growth.

End of Life Clayworks
When a piece is finished, it becomes a tangible reminder that even after someone’s physical presence leaves in death, the essence of who they are remains in memories and love — a lasting gift for the loved ones who continue their life journeys.
Farm/Goat Experientials
Goats have a way of meeting people exactly where they are, without pretense or expectation — as if they can sense the quiet places inside us that words don’t always reach. Being with them in nature invites a kind of softening: the slowing of breath, the loosening of guardedness, the feeling of being seen without being evaluated.
Lope the Goat
Their steady presence, their curiosity, their groundedness in their own bodies can help us reconnect with parts of ourselves that feel forgotten or protected.
Nature & Goats
Out on the land, surrounded by trees and sky, many people find that the goats become gentle mirrors — reflecting back calm, authenticity, and the reminder that healing often begins in the simple act of being witnessed by another living being.
