Introduction

I want to be honest—admitting that you or a loved one may need help can be scary! You've probably thought about reaching out for support many times before looking up your options on the internet and ending up here, reading my bio. I am proud of you for taking these first steps towards getting the help you need. However, you may still have some reservations about taking the next step and setting up an appointment, and that’s okay! I hope that I can ease some of your concerns by sharing a little more about who I am and what I do. Hello! My name is Heather Anderson, my pronouns are she/her, and I am a Licensed Professional Counselor. I have experience working with children, adolescents, and adults who are dealing with life transitions, stress, and symptoms of anxiety, depression, or neurodevelopmental disorders like ADHD and autism spectrum disorder. I utilize a client-centered counseling approach to foster a genuine and empathetic relationship with every client and incorporate other therapeutic approaches like ACT, CBT, and DBT depending on each client’s goals for counseling. If you or a loved one is interested in learning more about me and my approach to counseling, or if you think I may be the right fit for your counseling needs and are ready to schedule an appointment, please reach out. As Fred Rogers, aka Mister Rogers, once said, “Discovering the truth about ourselves is a lifetime's work, but it's worth the effort."
