More about Heather

  • 23 years' experience
  • Female
  • LCSW

I am licensed in Indiana with 23 years of professional work experience. I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, coping with grief and loss, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, & career difficulties. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. You are the expert in your life and I believe my role as a therapist is to serve as a guide. When we are in the middle of a tough time, we usually aren't able to see objectively and we might miss things that could help us.

My role is to help you identify those helpful tools and insights that will allow you to move through your current challenge. We each are individuals and there is no "one size fits all" method of therapy. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am so proud of you for taking that first step and I am here to support you in that process.

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.
