Heather has gotten me through one of the toughest times of my life. I talk to her every week and that one hour I get is special. I’m in a judgement free zone where I am able to say everything I can’t say to others. She listens when I ramble on, she speaks when I have nothing to say, and she helps me organize my thoughts and realizations. I can’t thank her enough!

Heather is an excellent listener and is very reassuring and calm. She instills confidence and provides useful, applicable insights. I have appreciated her counsel.

As a licensed therapist in Ohio with over two decades of experience, I specialize in supporting individuals through life's complex emotional landscapes. My practice centers on helping clients navigate challenges like depression, anxiety, relationship dynamics, and personal growth. I bring deep expertise in women's issues, workplace stress, and healing from difficult life transitions such as divorce, grief, and interpersonal trauma.

My approach is compassionate and collaborative, focusing on building self-love, improving communication, and rediscovering personal purpose. I understand that each person's journey is unique, and I'm committed to creating a supportive environment where individuals can explore their experiences, develop resilience, and cultivate meaningful change.

Whether you're struggling with mood disorders, processing past experiences, or seeking to enhance your emotional well-being, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space to support your healing and personal transformation.

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.
