A note from Heather
Hello! Thank you for taking the time to read my bio to get to know me as I believe a good fit between client and therapist is vital to the process of therapy. Receiving my PhD from an HBCU heavily influenced my clinical approach which is deeply rooted in the principles of social justice, striving to create equitable access to mental health care. I am driven by a genuine desire to help clients grow, and I am dedicated to empowering individuals to live happier, fuller lives through compassionate support, evidence-based interventions, and a commitment to fostering resilience and personal development.
