01About Heather
Heather Andrews is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Alabama. She draws on three years of professional experience to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, mood shifts, and the aftermath of trauma and abuse. Her approach is straightforward and respectful, aimed at helping people take practical steps toward feeling better.
She focuses on building a collaborative plan that fits each person's needs. That means listening first, then using tools from cognitive behavioral work and mindfulness to reduce distress.
Background and approach
She also uses client-centered and narrative ideas to help people make sense of painful experiences and move forward. Sessions are paced to match how someone prefers to work. People learn coping skills for panic, anger, and impulsivity, and also address deeper issues like attachment, abandonment, dissociation, and feelings of emptiness.
Heather supports people through life transitions, pregnancy and childbirth challenges, and postpartum depression as part of that broader work. Her style stresses respect, sensitivity, and steady support. She helps people set small goals, practice new responses, and track progress without pressure.
Therapy includes practical steps and conversations that aim to build confidence and lessen isolation. Heather tailors conversations and planning to what each person brings into sessions. That mix of concrete skill-building and personal narrative work is designed to help people regain control, clarify values, and reconnect with life purpose.

04Online support
Approaches that translate well to online care
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening and reflecting what matters most to the individual. It helps people feel heard and supported while they identify goals and next steps. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, emphasizes identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety, depression, and panic attacks. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, teaches concrete skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and reducing impulsive actions, which can be helpful for mood instability and intense reactions.Choosing the best mix of approaches is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to your concerns and try methods that fit your goals and preferences. If something does not feel useful, it can be adjusted so the work stays practical and focused on what you want to change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for deeper conversations and skill practice, while phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is limited. Live chat or text messaging can work well for shorter check-ins, homework review, or when someone prefers written reflection. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and maintain continuity across changes in schedule or location.
