Heather Hutchison, MS, LMFT

You are more than what happened to you. If fear, anxiety, shame, or painful memories have left you feeling disconnected from yourself or others, you don't have to navigate this alone. Healing takes courage, and you deserve support that helps you move from surviving toward a life rooted in connection, self-acceptance, and peace. I believe healing begins in a space where you feel safe, understood, and supported. The therapeutic relationship is at the heart of my work, and I believe meaningful connection and evidence-based care go hand in hand. My approach is warm, collaborative, and grounded in therapies like Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT). Together, we'll work to understand your experiences, process what has been difficult to carry, and help you reconnect with yourself in ways that support lasting growth and change. As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, I specialize in supporting adult survivors of sexual and interpersonal violence, childhood trauma, and other overwhelming life experiences, as well as the loved ones who are navigating the impacts of trauma alongside them. Before founding Bravely Rooted Therapy, I served as the Clinical Director of a rape crisis center, where I dedicated my work to supporting survivors and advancing trauma-focused care. I offer secure telehealth therapy for adults located in California, Colorado, and Texas. If you're ready to begin your healing journey, I’d be honored to support you in creating a life shaped by who you are, not only what you’ve experienced. Please reach out by email, phone, or through my website to schedule an appointment or book a free 15-minute consultation to see if we're a good fit.
