About me

It is my passion to partner with therapists and other adults who find themselves depleted, exhausted, overwhelmed, anxious and frustrated with no space to creatively and couragously nurture their own wants and needs.

I use a psychodynamic approach in my practice to help you make sense of the behavioral patterns that lead you away from what keeps you from feeling happy.

I teach Self/Ego awareness to bring the unconscious to the conscious where action can be taken to change what is causing you harm and keeping you stuck. I align closely with and utilize the principals of ACT and IFS and believe wholeheartedly that you have all the answers within you already and it is my duty to help you discover them.

I consider it an honor to have the opportunity to support you as you move toward your most authentic identity where anxiety, overwhelm, and resentment cannot survive long because the space becomes filled with love, compassion, and acceptance which are truly powerful forces.

I am licensed in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Florida. I have 22 years of professional Social Work experience; 12 of those years have been under full clinical Social Work licensure. I am trained in various evidenced based practices, however, those I primarily use, have focused my training in and believe in for relief of mental health difficulty are ACT and IFS.

I have worked across populations and in diverse environments throughout my 22 year career which helps me be a seasoned, dynamic and well-rounded therapist. I believe in meeting you where you are at in your healing journey and using my unique collection of expertise to help you get to where you want to go.

I look forward to partnering with you and helping you be unapologetically and wholeheartedly you.

Heidi is a great therapist. She listens and is really clear when sharing perspectives on things/ideas you may not have considered. Really making sessions productive and helpful. Just in the first session I felt better after and excited for the journey with her of moving past obstacles that have been hold me back in life.

Heidi is an exceptional therapist. I initially came to therapy for help getting out of a constant state of anxiety and frequent panic attacks. I have learned how to better cope with hardships as they come. Now we are working on re-connecting with self, as well as identifying and honoring core values in work, relationships, and life. Our work together has been transformative. Highly recommend!

I finally found the perfect fit! I look forward to my weekly talks with Heidi. I feel comfortable, safe and heard. I have learned so much about myself and appreciate Heidi so much that at times I cry tears of happiness! She truly fills my soul!

Heidi is very professional! I needed an accountability buddy and she recognizes that while still talking through general stress and depression with me. She does her homework and asks me insightful questions so I can do mine too!
