Welcome! It's time to show up for yourself! You deserve space to slow down, reconnect with yourself, and create a life that you deserve.

You may be navigating career stress, unhealed trauma, relationship challenges, anxiety, depression, or major life transitions while carrying the weight of it all. You don’t have to stay in survival mode. I am here to help you!

Hi! I'm Heather, and I have been supporting young adults navigating life transitions for the past 11 years. I have worked with college students from many different colleges and universities and I know there can be a lot of challenges to face during this season of life! I find this work to be incredibly rewarding and would be honored to be a part of your journey toward empowerment and overcoming.

Anxiety, stress, and sadness are a normal part of life. At times these feelings can take over and inhabit multiple area's of life in a profoundly negative way. As a therapist, I offer an empathetic, non-judgmental, supportive, and encouraging space for emerging and young adults to explore area's of life that feel off. I work with my clients to understand the unique experiences brought to counseling. Treating someone as a person, not a diagnosis that needs to be fixed is essential in healing.

I enjoy working with a variety of adult populations including LGBTQIA+, first responders, active and retired military members, their families, and dependents. I've assisted clients through their journey with grief, PTSD, relationship stresses, depression, and mood disorders for the past 5 years. If you are struggling with intrusive thoughts, depression, isolation, or anxiety I am happy to assist you in uncovering the source of these concerns and work with you toward getting back to a more positive place in your life.

Something feels off, and you can't quite name it. You're doing everything you were supposed to do, but the life you're living doesn't feel fully like yours. You look around and it seems like everyone else found their footing, their person, their purpose. And quietly, you've started to wonder: Why not me? What am I missing? The gap between where you are and where you thought you'd be by now can feel like failure, even when, logically, you know it isn't. You're measuring yourself against a timeline you didn't write, comparing your insides to everyone else's outsides, and coming up short every time. The loneliness isn't just about being single or not having the career you wanted. It's the disconnection from yourself, from knowing who you are and what you actually want, separate from what you were always told to want. You don't need to have it all figured out. But you do deserve to feel at home in your own life, curious about where you're going rather than ashamed of where you are. You deserve to trust yourself again. I work with women who are navigating that in-between, exploring who they are, longing for real connection, and untangling the anxiety that comes with feeling behind. Together, we'll loosen the grip of comparison, get clear on what you actually value, and help you build a life that feels genuinely yours, not a performance of what it was supposed to look like. I offer online therapy in North Carolina and Pennsylvania. If this sounds like you, please reach out to schedule a free 15 minute consultation!

As we face life’s challenges, we may also be facing the opportunity to find growth & meaning through our most difficult experiences. I am here to provide you with warmth, respect, & kindness as you face these difficult moments. I will aim to work alongside you, supporting you through the process of recognizing your strengths, uncovering & learning new skills, & problem solving ways to effectively cope with whatever difficulties you may be facing. In my approach I incorporate interventions from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) along with the use of creative approaches stemming from expressive play & art therapies. I have experience working with a variety of child & adult clients in both outpatient & in home settings, & I am fluent in English and Spanish. I also have experience treating issues related to anxiety, depression, affective disorders, trauma, loss, interpersonal conflict, adjustment, & behavioral issues related to ADHD.

I have taught undergraduate and graduate students for many years and currently teach a PE course in tai chi at AppState. Because of this experience, I understand the developmental needs of emerging adults. In addition to traditional talk therapies, I also use expressive arts therapies when this is of interest to my clients. One of these therapies is the Bonnie Method of Guided Imagery and Music. This is a method of engaging the imagination while listening to classical music pieces to creatively develop solutions to problems of living.

Our approach encompasses comprehensive care that goes beyond what you will find at your average mental health practice. We offer comprehensive psychotherapy services that go beyond the typical weekly appointment to include ongoing coordination with medical providers and stakeholders in your health/wellbeing, advocacy and consultation, connections with local and national resources, assistance navigating the complex system of mental health services, and incorporation of primary supports.  We also offer evaluations incorporating scientifically valid, reliable psychological testing, in-depth clinical interviews, review of medical/legal records, and completion of collateral interviews. Both of our doctorate level psychologists have extensive experience service as expert witnesses in the justice system and are specifically trained to complete clinical, civil, forensic, and psychoeducational evaluations to meet the specific client's needs.

Whether you’re a student-athlete or managing ADHD/Autism, it’s a lot. I blend psychology and performance tools to help you lock in, build resilience, and actually feel steady—not just push through.
