Heather Diggs, LMSW
About me
Seeking support takes courage, and finding the right therapist can make all the difference. My goal is to provide a welcoming, nonjudgmental space where you feel heard, understood, and empowered to move toward the life you want.
I am a Licensed Master Social Worker (LMSW) with specialized training in substance use disorders, co-occurring mental health conditions, and integrated behavioral healthcare. I work with adolescents and adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, stress, life transitions, relationship challenges, and substance use concerns. Whether you are navigating recovery, managing overwhelming emotions, or simply feeling stuck, I strive to meet you where you are with compassion, curiosity, and respect.
My approach is collaborative, strengths-based, and tailored to your unique needs. I draw from evidence-based practices, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Interviewing (MI), Solution-Focused Therapy, and trauma-informed care to help clients build practical skills, increase resilience, and create lasting change. I believe therapy is not about "fixing" you—it's about helping you recognize your strengths, overcome barriers, and develop the confidence to achieve your goals.
Throughout my career, I have worked in healthcare, behavioral health, and community settings, partnering with individuals from diverse backgrounds facing complex medical, mental health, and substance use challenges. My experience allows me to understand how emotional well-being, physical health, family dynamics, and life circumstances intersect.
Whether you're seeking support for anxiety, depression, addiction recovery, stress management, or personal growth, I am committed to providing compassionate, evidence-based care in an environment where you feel safe, respected, and supported. Together, we can develop a plan that helps you move forward with greater clarity, confidence, and hope.

Reviews
These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Heather Diggs. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
She is very helpful and provides a different perspective on situations to stay neutral. She’s constantly offering different ways to cope depending on the scenario as well. I’d highly recommend her to anyone seeking help.
