Hi, I’m Heather, an LCSW supporting adults, teens, and children 10+ who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, panic, overthinking/rumination, stress, low self-esteem, caregiver burnout, or family conflict. Many clients are exhausted from carrying the mental load, stuck in guilt or people-pleasing, and unsure how to set boundaries without feeling “bad.” Some are navigating complicated relationships with a parent, adult child, or sibling; including periods of distance or estrangement. In therapy, we focus on easing the spiral, building steadier coping, and making clearer decisions with less second-guessing and less rumination.
Practical, structured therapy using CBT to reduce anxiety and break unhelpful patterns, ACT to build flexibility and values-based action, and Solution-Focused tools to create momentum. With children 10+, we strengthen emotional regulation, coping skills, and confidence. Each session ends with clear takeaways and a doable practice plan.
You don’t have to keep carrying this alone. My style is warm, direct, and steady. We’ll identify what’s fueling the stress, practice tools you can use right away, and focus on what works between sessions. If you’re ready for therapy that’s supportive and goal-directed, I’d be glad to see if we’re a good fit.

I treat anxiety, depression, stress/burnout, caregiver strain, and family conflict/estrangement. A typical plan includes identifying patterns that fuel distress, building coping and emotion-regulation skills, and practicing new thinking/behavior strategies between sessions. Clients often report fewer "spirals," improved sleep and mood, and more confidence handling hard situations.
