Heather is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who earned their master’s degree in Counseling Psychology with a concentration in Health Psychology from The Chicago School. They are passionate about helping clients build insight, self-compassion, and resilience while navigating the complexities of identity, relationships, and emotional well-being.

As a queer and non-binary individual, Heather knows how it feels to grow up without a clear understanding of your own identity, feelings, or desires. They also understand what it’s like to be deeply attuned to the needs of others while struggling to recognize your own. These experiences help shape Heather’s affirming and relational approach to therapy, grounded in empathy, authenticity, and connection.

Heather enjoys working with LGBTQIA+ individuals and others facing complex challenges, including life transitions, trauma, and identity exploration. They strive to empower and support holistic growth, encouraging each person to define what well-being means for them.

Using an integrated and trauma-informed approach, Heather draws from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), harm reduction, mindfulness, and LGBTQ+ affirming practices. Their work is collaborative and adaptive, meeting clients where they are and honoring each person’s unique strengths, needs, and experiences.

In addition to counseling, Heather loves being outside in nature but appreciates the indoor comforts of modern society. They enjoy traveling the world with their spouse, snuggling with their rescue pup, reading and writing fiction novels, hanging out at home, and watching TV.
