More about Heather

  • Female
  • LCSW

Welcome! I know it is not easy to reach out for help but I am so glad that you did! I am sure you may have some questions about me, so let me tell you a little about myself.

I am a license clinical therapist, certified trauma specialist, and meditation and mindfulness coach. I have over 10 years experience and I am from Missouri. I coach others to explore their full potential through traditional therapy techniques as well as meditation and mindfulness practices. I use these skills to help clients shed anything that is covering up the highest version of themselves, or what I call their essence. My main goal is to assist others in self discovery of their gifts, talents, and infinite worth so that they can become their best self and create a life they love.

I have worked with clients with a broad range of concerns including: anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, relationship issues, addictions, trauma, and abuse. Sometimes clients are not able to name their concern other than feeling that their awe, happiness and zest for life has been replaced with a low grade numbness and they would like to reclaim their life. I welcome all clients exactly where they find themselves and work with them to get where they want to go.

My counseling style is warm, accepting and easy-going. We will work together to achieve your goals. In my view, we are all doing the best we can in this moment and we have infinite potential and possibility for growth. My approach uses techniques from acceptance therapy, client centered therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness therapy, and trauma informed therapy.

I want you to know that you are not alone and if you chose to move forward with me, I will be here to support and help you create the life you want, It would be my honor and privilege to assist you. Namaste, Heather

About online counseling

Affordable.

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.

Excellent. Extremely patient and understanding. Without her I would never have learned how to cope with anxiety through the easiest of measures

S.A.·Jun 2021

Heather is a guided talk and a way of getting through tough emotions with healing in mind. She as councillors go is a calm and insightful thoughtful person who helps lift people’s worries and make them feel happy and able to have a discussion without fear of judgement and has a special reassuring way of bringing sessions to people and I’d say she’s very professional and helped me feel so much better and be understanding I would recommend Heather highly she’s a fab help and it really works. Thank you Heather I feel much better already.

Heather restored my hope in getting help through counseling. She listens so intently and always echoes my main concerns so she can focus on different areas we can work through. I’ve had profound breakthroughs with her guidance and I love how she teaches me in a variety of ways appealing to my intellect but also my spiritual side. She is a true gift to the world of therapy!

Heather is not only a great counselor, but a great person. Such a great heart and she goes at the perfect pace during our sessions. After each video session I can feel myself getting better and finally feeling like a weight has been lifted off my shoulders.

E.R.·Feb 2021

She is really attent and always understands what I try to tell her. Even with our language differences she always makes sure she did understand me as I wish. Sheis patient and she allows me handle things in my own way and helps me to get in the right dirrection. She is very supportive and the same time she point out what she already said when I do not understand or do not accept, she repeat herself when I seem blocked. I am gratefull for her work so far. Thank you!

K.I.·Feb 2021
