More about me

Years in Practice: 8 State: Nevada

I am licensed in Nevada with 8 years of professional work experience in mental health. I’ve been a licensed social worker since 2008 and clinically licensed since 2017. I am also an approved clinical supervisor for interns seeking clinical social work licensure within the states of Nevada and Alabama.

I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, motivation, self esteem, and confidence, depression, & coping with life changes. I believe that you are the expert of your story and that you have many strengths that will assist you in overcoming things that challenge you. It takes courage to seek out a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. I am here to support & empower you in that journey.

I primarily use cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and I like to “sprinkle” in Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT). I am a believer of utilizing mindfulness, grounding, and intentional practices.

About online counseling

Online counseling allows you to receive care from an online mental health practitioner via phone, video chat, or instant messaging. It is convenient for those who may have trouble getting to or would prefer not to have in-person therapy appointments. Starting at $65 per week, online counseling is generally more affordable than in-person counseling. A study by researchers at University of California, Berkeley found that online counseling can be just as effective as face-to-face therapy while being more convenient, affordable, and accessible.

Heather has been great. She has helped me understand where I need to go and what I need to do. Difficult to hear sometimes but in the end I am getting better.

Overall

Heather is my second betterhelp therapist and equally matches the first if not exceeds the first. She is very kind and overly appreciative when given information she needs in order to help me. She makes me laugh more than I have in some time.
