Building self-awareness is often a hard place to start. I meet my patients where they are in their journey and support the process. Sometimes taking the first step to explore psychotherapy is confusing. Ask questions so you can find a therapist who is the right fit for you. My approach meets people where they are presently, to determine where they want to be in the future. I like to get to know my new patients to determine their needs in treatment.

“It is better to travel well than to arrive.” – Buddha My name is Heidi Dryer and I obtained my license as a Marriage and Family Therapist in 2015 but I have been practicing since 2012. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I have extensive experience working with individuals from all walks of life. The most important aspect of therapy is the therapeutic relationship. I understand the importance of having an empathic ear, especially now that we find ourselves with the illusion of being “connected” with one another only to feel more disconnected than ever. We are not born good listeners. Listening is an acquired skill. It is difficult to find someone, even in the professional world of therapy, who really listens and genuinely tries to understand the other person’s world. That is why I try my best to be present with every single person that I meet in the therapy room. I believe in holistically providing treatment so I work under the premise that all individuals have the innate ability to solve their problems although sometimes a guiding hand is necessary to lead one in the right path to have a healthy and happy life. At some point in my life, I worked as Flight Attendant so I often use the metaphor to describe my philosophy that all human beings are travelers in this journey called life. I believe that sometimes, as travelers, we often either don’t pack enough or carry too much luggage. Symbolically, this luggage has been accumulating little by little throughout our lives from the moment we are born. We carry good things in our luggage. But, sometimes, there are too many unnecessary things that are just weighing us down. If we don’t make an effort to make a thorough inventory of all those items our journey will be unpleasant. We know this is happening when we feel stuck in life. We feel unhappy, anxious depressed, hopeless and helpless. Sometimes it's difficult to get out of that loop so this is when therapy can be very helpful.

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 10 years of clinical experience. The focus of my work is individually with adult females and adolescents. As a provider, I specialize in women's mental health issues. I believe the therapeutic process should be an integrative and collaborative approach toward healing with the recognition that every person has a unique history.

I utilize a strength-based and cognitive behavioral approach that will assist in the development of an authentic relationship with myself and others. My goal is to welcome clients into a safe space, providing support, while assisting them in the process of navigating and overcoming emotional hardships. As a clinician, I partner with my clients in their journey of healing. My clinical orientation is specialized in the areas of women’s issues, relational/interpersonal dynamics, attachment issues, self-esteem issues, anxiety, depression, general stress, and overcoming trauma. I am currently trained in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Informed-Trauma Care, Seeking Safety, Behavioral Modification, Solution-Focused Therapy and Collaborative Problem-Solving Strategies.
