Heidi Kiernan, LMFT — Therapist in California

Hi there, I'm Heidi!

I'm a CA Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I work with individual adult clients who are seeking improved mental health, personal growth, and optimal emotional well-being.

My focus

I work with high functioning adults with everyday life problems and stressors. The most common areas that I provide therapy support include: Anxiety/Stress, Relationship and or Family Issues, Depression, Work/Life Balance, Grief, Personal Growth, Life Transitions, Learning Disorders/ADHD.

My approach

I collaborate with clients from an empathic and interactive approach to address your therapeutic needs and goals. It is my intention to shed insight and help you understand areas of obstacles and patterns that may get in the way of personal growth and therapeutic transformation. We will explore healthy coping skills and positive lifestyle choices.

My communication style

Clear and consistent, interactive and collaborative, empathic and supportive.

My journey to mental healthcare

I became a therapist after having my own positive personal growth experience in therapy as a teenager. Throughout my adult life and in this present moment, I participate in my own therapy for continuous balanced health and personal development. Therapy is I believe a sacred space for self care to address, healing/change/personal transformation.

My goals for you

I help clients reach goals by having a through assessment of your therapy needs in the beginning for a clear direction, and checking in with you the client throughout the duration of the treatment process. Based on my clinical observation and your verbal self report of how you are doing overall, we understand your progress.

Our first session

Warm and welcoming, engaged and inquisitive, interactive and supportive.
