(she/her)
Hello there, I'm Heather, it's so nice to connect! I've been a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist since 2012 and love the work that I do! I offer remote sessions to people in California, Arizona, Oregon and Washington. Originally from California myself, I completed my undergraduate studies at the University of CA at Santa Barbara, and my Masters Degree from San Francisco State University. I especially love helping adults live with more intention, awareness and self-compassion. I can't wait to meet you!
Get to know me
In our first session together, here's what you can expect
Our first session will be relaxed, an opportunity to get to know all about what makes you you. It's perfectly ok, and completely normal, to be nervous. I will take the lead and ask questions about your background as well as your hopes and goals for therapy.
The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions
My greatest strength as a provider is seeing the beauty in all humans. You will often hear me saying "it's so hard to be human" because it truly is an act of courage to walk this earth. I treat everyone with the respect, dignity, compassion and the empathy they deserve to heal through difficult times.
The clients I'm best positioned to serve
I love working with highly motivated people who want to grow and learn to live in alignment with their values. I appreciate clients who are engaged and curious about the world. Clients who are dedicated to making behavioral changes and doing work in the therapy room, as well as in the wild, are ideal client's for me to work with. Must be open to learning about self compassion!

My treatment methods
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I believe that within each of us, lies the capacity to grow, heal and learn to live in harmony with our life's purpose. In our work together I use playfulness, kindness, compassion and accountability to help you tap into your inherent strengths in order to navigate life's challenges. Together we will uncover patterns that are keeping you stuck and explore different ways to cope, leading to a more peaceful and satisfying life.
Compassion Focused
I use evidenced based practices when working with people experiencing depression, anxiety, difficulty with life transitions and difficulty in relationships. Through our work together, my hope is that you will learn to cope more effectively, build resilience, and strengthen your foundation to face future difficulties. I especially love working with clients on building self awareness and cultivating an enriching relationship with themselves. Self compassion truly is key to living a life with intention, confidence and joy!
Supportive
I believe that when we take the time to truly cultivate a meaningful relationship with ourselves, we seek guidance from others to mirror what we already know. I am dedicated to doing my best to guide and support you in your journey, and will always strive to enhance your ability to trust and access your innate wisdom.
