More about Heather
- 23 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I'm a therapist with extensive experience supporting individuals through a wide range of mental health challenges. I work with clients navigating depression, anxiety, stress, mood disorders, and substance use concerns. I'm also skilled in helping people address trauma, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive patterns, and life transitions.
My approach is grounded in compassion and practical support. I help clients work through isolation, loneliness, and social anxiety, while also exploring deeper concerns like forgiveness, control issues, and abandonment patterns. I'm experienced in supporting those facing chronic pain, seasonal mood changes, domestic violence, and other significant life challenges.
I welcome clients who value faith-based perspectives in their healing journey. Whether you're managing impulsivity, commitment concerns, or navigating major life changes, I'm here to walk alongside you with understanding and genuine care. I believe therapy is a collaborative process, and I'm honored to support your path toward greater peace and purpose.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.
Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.
