I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist currently accepting referrals for adults and adolescents. My interests include working with depression, anxiety, adjustment disorders, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, work-related stress management, and domestic violence issues. I use a flexible, patient-centered approach rooted in Humanistic, Psychodynamic, and Cognitive-Behavioral Theory. I enjoy working with patients to find their inner strengths, and to address the thoughts and emotions connected to undesirable behaviors. I value helping patients find their sense of identity, even amidst crisis, and supporting them to understand and make decisions that promote well-being and growth.

I am proud to offer Couples & Individual therapy that helps each client generate insight into what is working, what is not working, and how to collaboratively work towards your goals for change. I use an integrated and collaborative therapy approach that highlights exploration, introspection, insight, healing, and growth.

I work with empowering adults, teens, couples and families with the difficult challenges that life can bring. We work together to resolve issues of confusion, lack of purpose, divorce, trauma, physical and sexual abuse, grief and loss, blended families, adoption and transitions. We can heighten your insight and awareness about how to shift into healthier, more satisfying patterns and highlight your strengths, talents and passions to create the life you desire. It takes courage to seek counseling support to make changes in your life. I respect your journey and sincere effort.

Many of my clients are tired of only “talking” about their problems and are looking for something to finally help them break through. I am looking for motivated clients who are ready and willing to do what it takes to make lasting and significant changes in their lives. I believe that the energy and effort you put in is highly correlated to getting the outcome you want. My specialties include trauma recovery and couples counseling.

I specialize in working with adults as well as mid-late teens (15+) who are experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, relationship distress, working through life transitions and trauma (PTSD). I believe that as human beings, we ALL will have times in our lives where we can use someone to help us do "the work" that can help us live more fulfilling lives.

I work with adults, adolescents, and children on finding happiness, healthy coping skills, and better balance. It’s time to scrape off the judgements, and with a good dose of self-compassion, figure out how you can live better. We’ll work together to gain understanding, build an emotional toolbox, set goals, and try on new perspectives. My expertise and experience show up in every session to create a safe space for you to make the changes you are seeking. I will challenge you, laugh with you, and sit in emotion with you.

I believe that each client, child or adult, is an individual and should be treated as such. Because of this I tailor my treatment modality to fit the specific needs of those whom I see. As a Licensed Professional Counselor, I have the ability to work with a wide variety of clientele. I have a passion for working with children and adolescents because of the complicated issues so many of them face. Overall, I seek to create the safety of a mutual relationship in which clients can begin to discover their inspiration from within.

Most people struggle from time to time with issues within themselves or in their most significant relationships: family, friends, intimate partners.

Dr. Heather's "Wellness For The Mind" Coaching Program is an integrative, functional, mental health approach where the entire mind-body interaction will be assessed so we can get to the root of your struggles. As a Certified Integrative Mental Health Professional (CIMHP), she will be exploring the bi-directional nature of how our thoughts impact our bodies and how our metabolism and behaviors impact our minds. Sleep, nutrition, movement, social connections, and stress management will be woven throughout our work together. Growth happens when we embrace the discomfort of changing these aspects of our overall health.

I love working with clients who are facing divorce, custody, or other family law issues. As a family lawyer turned therapist, I bring a keen understanding of the legal system to my clinical work with individuals & couples. However, not all of my clients are getting divorced! I also enjoy working with couples who wish to improve their relationships as well as individuals seeking to grow. Many of my clients are lawyers or other professionals who value my ability to analyze issues strategically and understand the challenges of a demanding profession. Drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, motivational interviewing, & multicultural counseling traditions, I collaborate with clients to explore their concerns, set goals, & develop a plan for moving forward. My warm, empathic presence combined with my solution-focused approach allows me to provide non-judgmental support as clients tackle life's challenges.
