Background and approach

Heidi helps people build skills for managing anxiety, mood symptoms, cravings, sleep problems, and relationship struggles. She also addresses issues like grief, self-esteem, identity concerns, and career or parenting stress. Heidi uses a mix of client-centered work, cognitive behavioral techniques, DBT skills, relationship-focused methods, and mindfulness practices.

That combination lets her tailor interventions to immediate problems and longer-term goals. Sessions often include problem-solving, skill practice, and gentle reflection. Her background includes ten years of professional experience in mental health and licensure in Kentucky and Iowa.

Heidi aims to make starting therapy straightforward by asking clear questions about needs and goals, then shaping a plan that feels manageable. She values compassion, sensitivity, and practical progress. People who choose Heidi typically want a listening clinician who also offers concrete strategies.

She supports those coping with addiction, bipolar disorder, trauma histories, ADHD, and a range of life stressors. The focus is on small, sustainable steps toward more day-to-day stability and better functioning.

How Heidi's Approaches Translate to Online Care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and understanding the person's experience. In sessions the therapist reflects concerns, helps set priorities, and follows the client's lead to build trust and clarity. Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) teaches practical skills to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, and mood management. Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) offers concrete skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships, which can help with intense emotions and impulsive behaviors.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Heidi will work with each person to choose techniques that match their needs and goals. She adjusts methods over time based on progress and feedback so the plan stays relevant and useful.

Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls let people work face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions can be lower bandwidth and easier to fit into a break at work. Live chat and messaging support brief check-ins, skill practice, and ongoing coaching between longer sessions. These options provide flexibility for people balancing work, family, or health demands.
