LCSW, 7 years of experience
Healing and positive change is possible, you just have to be brave enough to take the first step. My approach with clients is warm and welcoming, creating a safe space for authenticity and vulnerability. I specialize in ADHD, mood, and women’s issues, which include but are not limited to anxiety, depression, self-esteem, work-life balance, and relationship issues. I incorporate mindfulness practices and self-compassion in sessions, as well as techniques to help with emotion regulation, coping with stress, and improving relationships. I look forward to guiding you on your journey to living your best life.
The first session will include lots of questions to help me get a clear picture of your background, history, family dynamics, and presenting problems. From there we will discuss goal setting and desired outcomes. I often give homework and will follow up on how you did in the next session.
Clients appreciate my straightforward approach that is both direct and compassionate. I listen, validate, and empathize, while holding clients accountable. I take a strengths-based approach and am my clients' biggest cheerleader. Healing, growth, and change is possible, you just have to take the first step.
I work well with clients who are ready and committed to put in the work and make positive changes in their life. I will hold you accountable and challenge you to think differently about your problems, leading to positive outcomes.
I educate clients about cognitive distortions and the negativity bias, and help clients reframe their thoughts into positive thoughts that are more helpful. Positive thinking leads to improved mood and reduced anxiety, and overall better outcomes.
I educate clients about radical acceptance and how to commit to a values-driven life.
I educate clients on different states of mind and provide tools to help with emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and mindfulness.
I take a compassionate, non-judgmental, and curious approach in my work with clients.
I educate clients about the benefits of mindfulness and how to incorporate mindfulness techniques into everyday life.

Heidi was great for my first meeting. I think she will be really helpful with my newly diagnosed ADHD.
