Online and Remote Therapy
Heather integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy into online work in ways intended to emphasize values, present-moment awareness, and practical skill building. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy supports noticing difficult inner experience and clarifying what matters to the individual so they can take committed action. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is used to identify thinking and behavior patterns and to introduce skills for managing stress, anxiety, mood shifts, and day-to-day coping.Emotionally-Focused Therapy is offered for work that centers on attachment, intimacy-related concerns, and relational patterns. This approach focuses on helping people name and track emotional responses and change interaction sequences that keep problems stuck. Heather describes a client-centered way of collaborating that blends these approaches so the work is tailored to each person and their goals.
Remote sessions can be conducted through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, allowing clients to choose formats that suit their needs while working through the issues listed in her specialties and additional focus areas.
