I’m Heather Lokteff, a Licensed Professional Counselor with nearly 20 years experience helping people navigate trauma, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting, life transitions, and personal growth.
What I help with
Anxiety & Life Transitions
Therapy can help when worry, stress, self-doubt, perfectionism, or a major life change leave you feeling stuck or overwhelmed.
Trauma & PTSD
I help clients work through the lasting effects of traumatic experiences, including avoidance, shame, intrusive thoughts, anxiety, and relationship difficulties.
Relationships
I help individuals and couples understand relationship patterns, improve communication, and build greater emotional connection.
Teens & Young Adults
I work with teens and young adults navigating relationships, self-esteem, family dynamics, and transitioning towards greater independence.
You don’t have to figure it out alone
Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, stuck, or caught in patterns you can’t seem to change. Maybe something happened in your past that continues to affect how you feel, think, or relate to others.
Are you hoping to become more engaged and present in your life? To change your relationship with anxiety and stress? To live more fully in alignment with yourself and what you value?
Are you juggling work stress, family dynamics, parenting, or major life transitions such as a new career or the transition into adulthood?
Are you wanting to pursue personal growth, self-care, and develop a stronger sense of self-worth?
Therapy can give you the space to slow down, identify personal values, understand what’s happening beneath the surface, and develop new ways of responding.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and practical. I want you to feel understood while also helping you make meaningful changes. My hope is that therapy provides a safe, encouraging space where you have a knowledgeable sounding board and support as you navigate whatever brings you in. Learn More About Me
