01About Heather

Heather Goodman-D'Anna is a licensed professional counselor in Louisiana who draws on 11 years of clinical experience. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, mood struggles, and relationship concerns. Heather aims to make first steps feel manageable for someone who is ready to reach out.

She uses straightforward, person-centered methods that let people talk through what matters most to them. Sessions emphasize listening and collaborative goal-setting, so the plan grows from each person's priorities.

Background and approach

Heather also brings cognitive behavioral tools to help spot and change unhelpful thoughts and habits. Mindfulness techniques are woven into sessions when they can help reduce reactivity and improve focus. Motivational interviewing is used for people wrestling with change, like substance use or behavior shifts, to build internal reasons for moving forward.

Solution-focused ideas keep work practical and goal-oriented when quick changes are a priority. Heather works with issues including depression, ADHD, trauma and abuse, grief, intimacy-related concerns, parenting strain, and addictive behaviors. She also addresses attachment difficulties, codependency, communication problems, gender dysphoria questions, and multicultural concerns.

Her approach aims to match the method to the person rather than apply a one-size-fits-all plan. Sessions are offered in English and delivered through multiple online formats. Heather encourages people to take the next step when they feel ready and supports them in finding steady, usable strategies for daily life.

04Online support

Approaches and online options that fit your life

Heather combines Client-Centered Therapy with Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to offer care that is both supportive and practical. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening, empathy, and building goals that matter to the person, which helps when someone needs space to talk and be heard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches simple skills to reduce anxiety, manage mood, and change unhelpful patterns.

Finding the right mix of approaches is a team effort. Heather will work together with each person to decide which methods suit their goals, preferences, and day-to-day needs. That collaborative process helps shape realistic steps and keeps therapy focused on what the person wants to achieve.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and situations. Video calls let people use face-to-face interaction when that is helpful. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth or camera use is a concern. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter check-ins, quick support between sessions, and flexibility around work or family demands.
