Heather is a likeable person overall, she is definitely in the right profession, she shows that she genuinely cares by how well she actively listens and you can tell she is really invested in finding the right questions to ask, in the right ways. She knows when to be serious and when it's ok to keep it light. Im generally the type of person that is hard to satisfy and can find something to complain about in regards to anyone and anything but I don't have the want or need to with her and the therapy she has given me. We bounce off each other well and I always really enjoy our sessions. Wish I had her in my corner outside of betterhelps platform, she would be a good friend indeed. Cultivating love and kindness your way Heather

Heather is an amazing therapist who always listens, directs the conversations, and suggests what I can do to correct certain things for the week. She’s very kind and has earned my trust, which is a big thing because I don’t trust very easily. She also understands my busy lifestyle and does not give me busy workbook tasks, but instead, provides something I can work on for the week. She is an amazing person and therapist!
