About Heather
Heather Harris is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Texas with 14 years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, coping with life changes, and anger. Her practice also addresses domestic violence, guilt and shame, veteran and armed forces issues, mood disorders, post-traumatic stress, and sexual assault and abuse.
Heather spent much of her career working with veteran populations and in outpatient behavioral clinics. She has a Bachelor of Social Work from Hardin-Simmons University and a Master of Social Work from the University of Denver earned in 2004. That background informs how she approaches common concerns like anxiety, depression, and trauma.
In sessions she uses practical methods from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing. That means clients can expect work on values, identifying patterns of thinking, and building small behavior changes that fit daily life. Heather emphasizes direct skill practice and clear, manageable steps.
She has experience helping people process sexual assault and intimate partner violence, grief and loss, and moral injury related to military service. Her clinical work includes supporting people with post-traumatic stress and other mood disorders.
Heather aims for straightforward, respectful interactions during appointments. She and the person she meets will set goals and make a plan to work toward them. To begin, readers are asked to follow the online matching and scheduling process on the site to arrange a first session.
BHow sessions work
How Heather uses ACT, CBT and trauma work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying what matters to you and taking small actions that align with those values. It can help when daily stress, low self-esteem, or life changes make it hard to move forward. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviors interact and teaches concrete tools to reduce anxiety and depression symptoms. Motivational Interviewing helps people resolve uncertainty and find their own reasons to change, which can be useful for goals tied to health or behavior shifts.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Heather will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit best. That discussion looks at current needs, personal goals, and what feels practical in day-to-day life rather than assuming one method up front.
The therapist's biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into busy schedules, cut commuting time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Some people prefer video for face-to-face interaction while others choose audio-only for a simpler setup or to use less bandwidth. The focus is on making sessions workable with everyday responsibilities while using ACT, CBT, and trauma-focused techniques to guide the work.
