LPC, 15 years of experience
New to Grow
I am so happy you are taking the next step for your mental health and wellness! My name is Heather Phelps, owner of HLP Wellness Solutions and Licensed Professional Counselor. I am a seasoned clinician with 15 years of direct patient care in behavioral health. I have experience working with substance use disorders, behavioral addictions, anxiety, depression, trauma, first responders, personality disorders, and mood disorders. I offer a client centered approach to care, valuing honesty, compassion, and accountability.
My job is to listen; offering compassion, empathy, and coping skills, while at the same time, challenge you to get out of your comfort zone! Together we will examine your inner most thoughts, feelings, and fears. We will set realistic goals and work together at your own pace, to create change you can feel proud of.
I have experience working with individuals struggling with not only substance abuse, but behavioral addictions. Often those in recovery seek relief through behavioral addictions, especially in the early stages. Gambling, sex/pornography, food, relationships, just to name a few. Clients describe me as being warm, energetic, direct, and compassionate. Clients value that I am honest, willing to challenge when needed, and hold them accountable. If you want a therapist who is laid back, but also willing to motivate you to change--then come Grow with me!
If you are thinking about taking that brave next step, I would love to meet you, and it would be an honor to embark on that journey with you! I offer a remote treatment experience for those would prefer to remain in the comfort of their own home.
I firmly believe that there is not a "one-size fits all" treatment approach. Although I am oriented in CBT modalities, I also utilize concepts of ACT, MBSR, and DBT. For those struggling with addiction and chronic relapse syndrome, I am trained in Relapse Prevention Therapy (Gorski method, CENAPS).
