More about Heather

- LMHC
I am licensed in Florida with 15 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with trauma and abuse, depression, stress and anxiety, relationship issues, communication, boundaries, self-esteem, and confidence. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started! Please note that I do not work with ADHD or ADD clients if that is the main issue as this is not an area of expertise for me. I also only have daytime availability from 9 AM to 2 PM, Monday through Thursday. Phone sessions are welcomed!

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.

Heather is the best!
Idk much about therapy this being my real first time seeking help but if all therapists are like Heather we all have hope
Heather is extremely knowledgeable about the ways that trauma can affect us and is consistently on point when discussing different issues. I feel much better knowing she is in my corner.
