- “I have just begun my work with Heather, but so far I am very impressed with the multiple options for communications and learning.”
- “She understanding and supporting.”
- “Heather was a good listener with good perspective. Was a pleasure to chat with her.”
- “This was the best step forward in the right direction. Heather is attentive, kind, and gentle with topics that are not easy to talk about but uplifting enough to help figure out the root cause of any troubling issues or situations. I recommend!”
- “Heather is warm, engaging, and easy to talk to. Heather is very interactive and offers plenty of thoughtful feedback, so if you prefer a therapist who primarily just listens, Heather may not be the best fit. For me, though, our conversations are incredibly helpful. Heather does a great job of grounding my thinking when life feels overwhelming. I would highly recommend Heather to anyone navigating the normal challenges of everyday life.”
- “I switched to Heather from another provider simply looking for a better fit and I’m so glad I did. Heather is experienced, thoughtful and purposeful in our sessions. I can’t wait to see how much I can learn from her. 💗”
- “Immediately loved her. Modern and open and easy to talk to!”
- “Heather is easy to talk to and always gives insightful advice and tools for dealing with my concerns.”
- “Been with Heather for about 2½ years (did have a little break in the middle) and she has been the best therapist I could have ever asked for. She always isn't afraid to tell me when something im doing is concerning or worrying while also being able to help me realize if I am. If it wasnt for her I would not be the same person I am today”
- “I really lucked out being paired with her. She understands what I’m going through and we talk through things like friends would. Without judgement or negativity. Very understanding and great advice.”
- “Heather is wonderful, her kind manner and understanding truly shows her concern for her patients. She has really helped me find ways to become a better person, manage my stressors and improve my self esteem.”
- “Wonderful and kindhearted person super easy to talk to”
