About Heather

Heather Dillard is an LPC who helps people feeling stuck after grief, big life changes, or long-term stress. She meets with adults and teens who are overwhelmed by anxiety, low motivation, or struggles with self‑esteem. Her approach focuses on making day-to-day life feel more manageable and purposeful.

She uses a whole-body viewpoint that connects the physical and emotional sides of stress. Sessions look at how tension and symptoms show up in the body as well as in thoughts and feelings. Heather aims to help clients notice those patterns and try practical ways to shift them.

Therapy blends gentle talk with tools from cognitive behavioral strategies and mindfulness. Heather also uses somatic methods to help people track body sensations and trauma-focused ideas when past events keep causing distress. She keeps exercises simple so they fit into busy lives.

Heather has practiced for 13 years as a Licensed Professional Counselor in Texas. She works online, which she says makes scheduling easier and removes the need to drive to appointments. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time.

To begin, visitors use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire. After that step, Heather and the person schedule sessions according to her availability and the client’s needs.

How Heather’s approaches translate to online care

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and working at the client’s pace. The therapist follows the person’s lead, asking questions and reflecting back what she hears so people feel understood and clearer about next steps.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try small behavior changes. It is practical and task-focused, useful for anxiety, low mood, and motivation struggles.

Somatic Therapy pays attention to bodily sensations and how stress shows up in the body. Exercises can include simple tracking of tension and breath-based practices to reduce physical reactivity after trauma or chronic stress.

Choosing the right mix of approaches is part of the work together. Heather will collaborate with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and comfort level. That means trying an approach, checking how it feels, and adapting if needed.

Because Heather provides therapy online, sessions remove drive time and can fit into busy schedules more easily. Confirm the exact session options before booking so they align with your routine. Online work can make it simpler to have a shorter check-in during a work break, avoid travel on hard days, or focus on breath and body awareness without changing locations.
