Female Therapists in Gilbert, AZ
It feels like we are roommates! We don't have a lot to say to one another but when we do, our conversations turn into arguments. I look across the room and I don't even recognize the spouse that used to make my heart skip a beat years ago. My desperate attempts for connection come out as either criticism or anger. But the more I do that, the more he/she withdraws from me. I feel helpless and alone but craving the love of my person. "How did we grow apart?" is a thought that often enters my mind. Many life stressors can pull partners away from each other such as time, kids, money, betrayal, and a difference in core life values.

I work with children (5+), teens, adults, and couples navigating anxiety, emotional overwhelm, relationship conflict, behavioral concerns, and life transitions. Many feel stuck in patterns they don’t fully understand or struggle to communicate their needs without things escalating. Together, we slow things down, make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface, and build healthier ways of coping, communicating, and responding so clients feel more grounded, confident, and connected.

Pregnancy and Postpartum Specialist, Motherhood, Couple's Therapy -
I’m a former people-pleaser and anxious high-achiever turned therapist. As a mom of three I know how easily motherhood can turn your world upside down — even if you thought you had it all figured out. I work with women and couples navigating the messy middle: You used to feel confident and capable, but anxiety, exhaustion, or disconnection are getting in the way. You’re trying to figure out who you are in motherhood (and why it feels so different from before). Your relationship has changed in ways you didn’t expect — and you want to get back on the same page.

You might be here because something no longer fits—your faith, a relationship, a role you were taught to carry, or the version of yourself that learned to stay quiet to belong.

Hello! I am Heather Vance, a Licensed Professional Counselor entering on my 24th year helping children, teens, adults, & families work through painful life events and build skills essential to wellbeing: self-awareness, emotional regulation, adaptability, value-based living and effective relationship practices.

You are not falling apart, but you are exhausted. Tired of overthinking, holding it together for everyone else, and carrying experiences that still live in your body and relationships. Maybe you have done therapy before and it helped, but something still feels unresolved. You want therapy that feels real, not clinical. A space where your story is honored, your boundaries are respected, and healing does not require you to relive everything just to move forward.
