About Heather

Heather Horvath is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan. She brings three years of clinical experience and a direct, down-to-earth approach. Heather believes each person’s story matters and that looking closely at certain chapters can help people cope and change for the better.

Heather uses an eclectic, trauma-informed outlook to shape sessions around what each person needs. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and client-centered methods, among other approaches. Sessions focus on practical skills, clearer thinking, and managing strong emotions like anger and anxiety.

Her background includes work with people facing brain injury, grief, substance concerns, and changes tied to illness or aging. She has also supported those connected to community agencies and correctional settings. That experience informs how she helps people facing complicated life transitions and health-related adjustments.

In the room, Heather aims to create a calm, respectful space to talk through problems and learn coping techniques. She helps people set goals, try small changes, and track what works. Treatment plans are adjusted based on results and the person’s preferences.

Heather welcomes conversations about stress, trauma, depression, addictions, relationship and family strains, parenting worries, and anger. People are invited to start by describing what they hope to change, and then build a plan together.

How Heather’s Approaches Work Online

Heather uses Client-Centered Therapy to focus on the person’s own goals. Sessions give space to tell your story and set directions based on what matters most. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, helps identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors to reduce symptoms like anxiety or depression. Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, adds practical tools for emotion regulation and managing intense feelings such as anger.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Heather will collaborate with each person to choose methods that fit their goals and everyday life. She adjusts techniques based on what helps and what does not, so therapy stays focused and useful.

The benefits of online therapy include easier scheduling and fitting sessions into a busy week. It can make it simpler to keep regular appointments and to practice skills between meetings. The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm available formats before booking. Online work can support stress management, coping with life changes, anger reduction, and skills practice in realistic settings.
