More about Heather
- 5 years' experience
- Female
- LISW-CP
I am licensed in South Carolina with clinical experience as both a Clinic-Based Therapist and a Clinic Director. Additionally, I have spent the last several years developing and teaching wellness programming for children and adults that focuses on mindfulness, movement, problem-solving, communication, social connection, coping, and relaxation skills. I have developed a Mindful Parenting Program as well. I am certified in Foundations of Meditation and as a Trauma-Informed Yoga Instructor. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, parenting challenges, feelings of disconnection, trauma, and coping with life changes. My theoretical framework stems from Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Mindfulness, and other research-based modalities. My therapeutic style is very client-centered as I believe that you are the expert on your life. We can partner together to create a plan that meets your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to sign up for therapy takes tremendous courage and I am truly honored to be a part of your growth and journey towards the life that you want.

About online counseling
- Affordable.
- Pay a low flat fee.

Online counseling allows you to receive care from a mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Heather has truly been a sanity saver…I’d be lost without her guidance
Every week I look forward to spending my time with Heather. I use the tools she teaches me and everyday I become more of the person I want to be. She is trustworthy and incredible. Any one who gets time with Heather is going to be a better person for it.
Heather has been a light in my life. I have learned so much from her and about myself. I truly appreciate her and her guidance. She always showed up for me and made our time about working on me.
A Very Kind and Professional person. Always concerned about my wellbeing and ready to offer advice at a moment’s notice. I would recommend Ms. Phelps to anybody looking for assistance emotionally, because we all need it sometimes.
SO grateful to be matched with Heather. She is warm and is trustworthy from the first meeting. I feel seen, hopeful, and confident that we will be able to address my needs and build new skills.
I cannot explain how life changing it has been to have time with Heather. She has been wonderfully supportive. I cannot imagine not having her to lean on.
Heather has been a great fit as a therapist for me from the very first meeting. She listens, mirrors, offers tools and insights. Heather has been a professional in every way and maintains appropriate therapeutic boundaries; however under different circumstances she is exactly the kind of person I would want to be friends with.
I am very impressed with both BetterHelp and Heather Phelps. After just one session with Heather I feel like she understands me. She is bright, kind, thoughtful and genius with her time. I highly recommend this process to any looking for a little help figuring out life.
