About Heather

Heather Horvath is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Michigan who brings a person-centered, trauma-informed orientation to her clinical work. She combines evidence-based methods such as cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness-informed practices with an eclectic toolbox tailored to each individual's needs.

Background and approach

Heather emphasizes understanding a client's life story to identify patterns, strengthen coping skills, and support gradual, practical change. Her background includes work across community agencies and correctional settings, with experience supporting people facing grief, trauma, anger, addiction, and adjustments to health-related changes.

Heather also addresses a broad range of concerns that include anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, ADHD, caregiver stress, and challenges related to chronic illness or aging.

She frames therapy as a collaborative process that adapts goals and techniques to what each person brings to the session, seeking approaches that fit personal values and daily life rather than a one-size-fits-all plan.

Therapeutic approaches for online care and practical growth

Client-centered therapy focuses on creating a respectful, empathic environment where the therapist listens closely and helps clients identify their own goals and values; this approach supports people who want a collaborative, strengths-based process. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) offers structured strategies to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can help with anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides skills in emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness, making it useful for managing intense emotions and improving communication.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Heather collaborates with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, preferences, and goals. She draws on different modalities as appropriate and will discuss options so the client and therapist can adapt the plan together over time.

Online sessions are available by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, offering flexibility for people balancing work, caregiving, or mobility limitations. These options make it easier to maintain continuity of care and to meet regularly in ways that fit individual schedules while still working with licensed professionals on concrete skills and goals.
