More about Heidi
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
I am a licensed clinical social worker with many years of experience. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including anxiety, depression, interpersonal relationship issues, parenting and career challenges. I’ve helped many people who have experienced past traumas and current stressors navigate and overcome these obstacles to achieve their life goals.
I believe in treating everyone with compassion, empathy and respect. My therapeutic approach combines person-centered, narrative, CBT, psychodynamic from a lens that is trauma-informed, strengths-based and solution-focused. I will tailor our sessions and treatment planning to meet your needs and personal goals.
It takes courage to seek a more content, fulfilling and happier life. When you’re ready, I’m here to empower and support you!

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.

Very helpful, professional ,and understanding. I enjoy our sessions.
Very kind, punctual, and knowledgeable
I really enjoy working with Heidi
Heidi is always there no matter if I’m ready to talk or not. She’s not pushy. She is a great human.
Heidi has been instrumental in helping me navigate the therapy process, and has been incredibly open, knowledgeable, and insightful throughout the entire process. I’m was incredibly nervous about opening up to anyone at the beginning, but she presented a very honest, trustworthy, and calming timbre when speaking to me that immediately relieved all of my concerns. It has been incredibly surprising how comfortable I have been throughout this journey into my own mind.
She is amazing!
Heidi has been very helpful to me. She listens and provides appropriate feedback.
She’s great! It’s still the beginning, but she has a deep understanding and intuition, and gives a lot of helpful techniques and worksheets and good communication.
I have felt that my first two sessions have been beneficial, and plan to continue this service.
Heidi was wonderful to work with. She was available at times that fit with my rather crazy schedule, was prompt, professional, and gave advice and help that was designed to guide me rather than direct. I highly recommend working with her.
I love that she reaches out and seems to really care. She has given me worksheets and advice on different things to try which I really appreciate
Meeting Heidi online was so easy. It never felt uncomfortable and I never felt judged. She was very understanding and reassuring, yet pointed out what I couldn’t see, without making me feel badly. Very glad that I got paired with her.
