Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor
Hello, My name is Heather and I provide therapy services at our Glen Burnie, MD clinic.
I am a Maryland girl that joined the ARMY right after High School. Once I finished my time in the ARMY, I attended college in Florida. I first became a therapist working with at risk youth that had sexual behavior problems. I have work with a large variety of populations since 2008. My experiences included, trauma victims, criminal offenders, incarcerated individual, community mental health, as well as those with severe and pervasive mental illness. I have experience in art therapy, play therapy, and sand tray therapy. I also have extensive experience in behavior modification techniques.
I utilize a variety of treatment techniques and skills to create a individual and person centered environment that is driven by the client’s needs, interests and strengths. I believe the relationship is the most important part of a successful therapeutic experience and strive to share my clients journey.
My counseling approach is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, however I believe that there is a place for all types of therapy and one size does not fit all. It is important to understand that as people we are always changing and as a therapist it is important to be able to be a fluid in the services provided as the client needs.
