Introduction

Hello!!! My name is Heather and I am so happy you're here! I bring more than 18 years of experience working with children and families across educational and therapeutic settings. I spent 9 years as a Preschool and Pre-K teacher, followed by 9 years as an ABA therapist within the public school system. Since 2021, I have been providing therapy to children, adolescents, and young adults. My goal as a clinician is to create a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment where clients feel comfortable exploring and processing both simple and complex emotions. I take an eclectic, client-centered approach to therapy that is heavily influenced by Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Applied Behavior Analysis (ABA), and Play Therapy techniques. By tailoring treatment to each individual's unique needs and strengths, I strive to help clients build resilience, develop effective coping skills, and achieve meaningful personal growth.
