MEET Heidi, LCSWA:

(she/her)

You deserve to be here.

Hi there! I am Heidi and I’m grateful that our paths have crossed here. As a person-centered therapist with a holistic approach, I believe that our lives are shaped by the tough and tender intersections of multiple systems, identities, and cultures. My goal is to create a therapeutic space that is creative, flexible, and collaborative, where we can walk together through some of life’s challenges. I’m passionate about working with 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, adults, and families, and I have a special love for working with children, seeing clients as young as 6 years old. My practice is deeply rooted in a commitment to social justice and cultural humility. As a queer and white practitioner, I am always seeking to grow and foster a safe practice that promotes collective liberation, anti-racism, and community. I draw from a variety of therapeutic frameworks & seek to be flexible, creative, and collaborative in our work. I also offer EMDR if that is a desire..

When I’m out in the world, you can often find me indulging in coffee or a big bowl of noodles (any!), playing and napping with my dogs, or treating myself at a movie theatre or book store. I also enjoy trying new vegan foods and continuously exploring new hobbies. 

Whether we work together or not, I hope you remember that you deserve to be here and I am so glad you are.

Favorite media?

I read, watch TV shows, and movies based on the seasons! But year round, I am a fantasy/thriller/mystery person-- I like to let my brain rest through listening, watching, and reading (heavy emphasis on) ~fictional~ worlds. 

Four legged family?

I have two precious pups, Bindi and Banjo, both chihuahua mixes and the loves of my life! I am forever a small dog stan

What are you up to in your free time?

Outside the office, I love playing pickleball, reading, kayaking, hiking, and painting! I am also always on the hunt for new thrift stores and coffee shops. Recommendations are always welcome!

Favorite foods/snacks?

I love a fresh-baked vegan cookie, tacos, and french fries (specifically from Zaxby's)!
