Hi there, I'm Heather!

Creating a safe space is an important component for me in therapy. At times, this could look like us delving into some deep-rooted issues that have been occupying your mind for far too long. Other times, this could look like you just venting about your dog boycotting his food for no reason. Nothing is off limits, so let's get curious!

My focus

My ideal client is quite general-anyone who is open and willing to explore themselves. I have worked with many diverse populations and have fond memories from a multitude of different clients. However, the one trait that I can attest that they all share is the ability to be open to feedback and genuine self-reflection.

My approach

Therapy is collaborative, in that the seeker of therapy is likely looking for answers in some capacity and the conductor of therapy may provide guidance to those answers. In addition to collaboration, I also emphasize being open and honest to continue to cultivate change and build insight.
