Heather's Story...

Heather is a master’s level intern/therapist from Grace College. Heather is dedicated to working with her clients from a holistic approach. She believes each client brings their own unique experiences, challenges, and strengths. Heather is passionate about helping individuals and families grow toward health and wholeness. She approaches individuals and families from a person-centered and humanistic perspective. She integrates strategies from CBT, DBT, and narrative therapy.
​
Heather’s experience as a woman, mother, former teacher, and pastor allows her to approach clients with a unique background. It fuels her desire to approach clients as a whole person, psychologically, emotionally, spiritually, and relationally. She’s especially energized by creating spaces that support healing through connection. She strongly believes there is healing in community and you are NOT your disorder. She would be truly honored to walk alongside you or your loved one as you navigate your recovery journey.

In her free time, you’ll likely find Heather reading, sharing coffee with a friend, spending time with family, or surrounded by her (many) beloved pets.
