I have a Master's degree in Mental Health Counseling and have experience working with a range of issues such as trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, low-self esteem, military-related issues, parenting skills, health related issues, grief and communication issues.
I have a wealth of experience using a various of clinical approaches such as Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Dialetical Behavior Therapy, Family Systems Therapy and Trauma-focused therapy.
I enjoy seeing people find healing through gaining insight on the origin of symptoms and by practicing skills learned in therapy. I provide warmth, compassion and honesty on clinical perceptions of difficulties being faced. I tailor treatment to the individual and believe in treating the client as the expert in his or her life who needs guidance and tools in overcoming challenges.
Coming from an ethnic background, I provide a non-judgemental approach to counseling and I am open to cultural and spiritual/religious views and backgrounds of my clients.
I hope you will choose me to assist you on your journey of hope and healing, you are not alone.

Although we have only had one session Heather Baker was very respectful. She was very nice and great at listening. She did a very good job at trying to figure out what is going on in my life to get the best understanding of how she could help me with my current situation. Heather Baker is a Phenomenal therapist and I would 100% recommended her to anyone who needed to get the weight of whatever they are going through off of their shoulder.
