"I am an intern earning a Master's degree in Professional Counseling. I have a BA from Radford University. I enjoy working with a broad spectrum of individuals from diverse backgrounds.

I have experience working with adolescents and adults suffering from complex traumas as well as providing a variety of community support resources to individuals and families."

"Often, people realize at some point in their lives, that they would like professional assistance in order to successfully navigate or cope with overwhelming situations, strained interpersonal relationships, or significant emotional responses to their environment (e.g., sadness, or excessive worrying). In addition, most people are also confronted by situations in which their past experiences inform their current reactions, responses, and behaviors. Therapy allows individuals to develop awareness and insight into their emotions and behavior, feel hopeful, enact change, and live a more satisfying and fulfilling life."

"I am a Licensed Professional Counselor in the Commonwealth of Virginia and a National Certified Counselor. I take an integrative approach to the therapeutic relationship, and include person-centered therapy, solution-focused therapy, play therapy and creative approaches, mindfulness and existential beliefs, and models of psychosocial development. I believe everyone can benefit from professional counseling for the unconditional regard it provides to clients. In that regard, I attempt to create a non-judgmental and inclusive setting within the therapeutic process."

"As a solution-focused counselor/coach, my treatment approach is to provide support with insight and feedback to help women address current challenges and self-esteem issues. My specialty area is truly unique but well received by my clients. I take a less traditional route of counseling/coaching and recognize that how we feel on the inside manifests itself on the outside. I consider myself a Personal Style Coach. When a client hires me, we are able to delve in to what's going on in the inside by exploring her wardrobe to examine what is holding her back from her full potential."

"People in distress are often wary of talking to someone who is a stranger. The first visit is generally fraught with anxiety. I am adept at teasing out the issues and helping a person (of any age) feel comfortable and understood. I expect that many clients will come to my office with a certain amount of ambivalence about engaging in psychotherapy. Generally, by the time they leave after the first visit, they are eager to return having felt a sense of relief and hope that they are going to be understood and "heard" in a unique way."

"I believe that people argue because they do not understood or feel that anyone is listening. There are similarities between teenagers and couples in how they argue. "If this person would just listen to what I am saying things would be better." We want to be understood, cared for and loved. Many people these days do not feel any of these. I work with people so that they are able to attain the feelings that they desire. I have had the pleasure to work with people who feel like things are impossible to fix, and to help them feel better."

"Heidi's clients include men, women, and adolescents who are struggling with difficult transitions, trauma, past or present abuse or childhood emotional neglect, or substance abuse. Many of these clients express sadness that they feel lonely or disconnected in relationships or with friends. Her clients describe patterns of behavior or emotional struggles that reoccur despite trying to change. She believes an empathetic, nonjudgmental relationship is necessary to help clients explore these issues, identify self-defeating patterns, and make sustainable changes. Coming to therapy can be a difficult experience, but she knows it can be deeply rewarding."

I aim to make my office a safe and supportive environment for personal exploration and growth.

"Many individuals, families, and couples realize at some juncture in their lives that they need professional assistance in order to successfully navigate or cope with overwhelming situations, strained interpersonal relationships (e.g., discord with a romantic partner), or intense emotional responses to their environment (e.g., sadness, or excessive worrying).
