About Heather
She uses a strengths-based, client-centered approach to help people find tools that actually fit their lives. Sessions focus on setting clear goals, building motivation, and celebrating progress. Heather often blends cognitive behavioral ideas with mindfulness and solution-focused techniques so people can test what works and adjust as they go.
Her background includes work with adoption and foster care issues, blended family concerns, caregiver stress, addiction, cancer-related challenges, divorce and separation, and aging or geriatric issues. She also addresses communication problems, commitment worries, codependency, and feelings of emptiness.
Heather describes therapy as regular support that matters like sleep and nutrition. She encourages small, measurable steps and tracks outcomes so people can see changes over time. The tone is practical and hopeful, aimed at helping people strengthen coping skills and make life feel more manageable.
To begin, she asks clients to identify a few clear goals. From there Heather helps tailor approaches so sessions match each person’s pace and priorities.
How her approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy puts the person’s priorities first and focuses on what the client finds most helpful. Online work with this approach looks at current goals and supports decisions that fit day-to-day life. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking and develops practical strategies to shift behavior and feel less overwhelmed; it often involves short exercises and homework between sessions. The Gottman Method offers concrete communication and relationship skills that can be practiced in session and at home to improve interactions and reduce conflict.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Heather collaborates with each person to choose and adapt methods based on goals, preferences, and what shows results in early sessions. She checks in on progress and adjusts strategies so therapy stays practical and focused.
Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, shorten travel time, and allow for brief check-ins when a full session is not practical. It can also make homework and skill practice simpler because tools and exercises can be shared and discussed between meetings.
