Hello, I’m Heidi.
I believe you already hold the key to your freedom and it’s called your truth.
About me.
I’m a Licensed Clinical Social Worker committed to helping you with your therapeutic process. My counseling philosophy is an integrative approach that blends existentialism, internal family systems therapy, and acceptance and commitment therapy. Simply, this means that I view the human condition to be inherently full of struggle and there are ways to learn how to be with this struggle through understanding the dynamic parts of us and accepting ourselves for who we are.
Align with your highest values for the confidence you need to succeed.
My highest values:
Integrity
I strive to know, accept and be my Self. Authenticity is my perfection.
Simplicity
As a high-achieving woman with ADHD, I strive to keep things simple and efficient.
Spirituality
When I connect to my highest Self, I connect to a powerful source that allows me to be my best Self for those I serve.
My credentials:
-
Masters of Social Work, Florida State University (2006)
Bachelor of Social Work/Psychology, The University of Michigan-Flint (2000)

Licensed Clinical Social Worker (2011)
