More about Heather
- 3 years' experience
- Female
- LCSW
As a clinical social worker with nearly a decade of experience in counseling, I provide treatment for a wide range of mental health issues and life transitions. I use an integrative and eclectic treatment approach to address struggles including depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, post traumatic stress, attachment difficulties, interpersonal and relationship distress, family of origin issues, chemical and behavioral addictions, and grief and loss. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, and specialize in the treatment of PTSD and complex trauma. Additionally, I have a background in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Schema Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I graduated summa cum laude from the University of Rochester with my Bachelor's degree in Brain and Cognitive Science, and from the University of Pittsburgh with my Master's in Social Work.
It takes an ample amount of courage to take an honest look in the mirror, and even more so to be open with someone else about what you see. The fact that you're here indicates that you have what it takes to change your life for the better. It's your strengths and resilience that have gotten you this far in life, and I look forward to collaborating with you to help you harness those qualities, so that you can begin to live the life you truly want for yourself.

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.
