Although we have only had one session Heather Baker was very respectful. She was very nice and great at listening. She did a very good job at trying to figure out what is going on in my life to get the best understanding of how she could help me with my current situation. Heather Baker is a Phenomenal therapist and I would 100% recommended her to anyone who needed to get the weight of whatever they are going through off of their shoulder.

More about Heather
- 6 years' experience
- Female
- LPC
I am a licensed professional counselor and have been delighted to help people find healing for nearly 7 years. I have a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling and have experience working with a range of issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, low-self esteem, military-related issues, parenting skills, health related issues, grief and communication issues.
I have a wealth of experience using a various of clinical approaches such as Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Dialetical Behavior Therapy, Family Systems Therapy and Trauma-focused therapy.
I enjoy seeing people find healing through gaining insight on the origin of symptoms and by practicing skills learned in therapy. I provide warmth, compassion and honesty on clinical perceptions of difficulties being faced. I tailor treatment to the individual and believe in treating the client as the expert in his or her life who needs guidance and tools in overcoming challenges.
Coming from an ethnic background, I provide a non-judgemental approach to counseling and I am open to cultural and spiritual/religious views and backgrounds of my clients.
I hope you will choose me to assist you on your journey of hope and healing, you are not alone.

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
