01About Heather
Heather Dillard is a licensed professional counselor in Texas who helps people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, and big life changes. She works with adults and teens to make daily life more manageable and to rebuild motivation and purpose. She uses a whole-body way of working that pays attention to both the mind and the body.
That means she helps clients notice how stress shows up physically as well as emotionally.
Background and approach
Sessions focus on practical steps and simple skills people can use between meetings. Her approach blends client-centered dialogue with tools from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. Heather also draws on somatic and trauma-focused methods when the body or past events are part of the problem.
The style is collaborative - she listens, offers feedback, and helps clients try different strategies until something fits. Heather has 13 years of clinical experience and frames therapy as a process of small, steady changes. She often supports people who are coping with career challenges, relationship strain, compassion fatigue, chronic pain, illness, or questions about life purpose.
All sessions are offered online in formats such as video, phone, chat, and messaging to reduce travel time and increase flexibility. The first steps are straightforward: complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a time that works for the client.

04Online support
Online approaches that address mind and body
Heather combines client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral therapy to help clients change unhelpful thoughts and build practical coping skills. Client-centered work means she listens deeply and follows each person’s priorities while offering feedback and guidance. CBT provides step-by-step techniques for anxiety, depression, and stress-related concerns.She also uses mindfulness-based tools to teach calming attention and grounding skills that reduce reactivity. Mindfulness helps people notice patterns without judgment and can be useful for grief, chronic stress, and ongoing worry. The therapist will work with each person to decide which mix of approaches fits best based on goals and preferences, and adjustments are made as progress is observed.
Online therapy options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to make scheduling easier. Video can support face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone works well when less bandwidth is available, chat can be a shorter check-in, and messaging lets people reflect between sessions. These formats make it simpler to fit therapy into a workday, manage energy during chronic illness, or avoid travel time while still getting consistent care.
