About Heather

Heather Cooper is an Ohio-licensed professional counselor (LPCC) with seven years of clinical experience helping people navigate stress, anxiety, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, and other life transitions.

Background and approach

She draws on a strengths-based perspective, treating each person as the expert of their own story and building on existing resources to address concerns such as depression, grief, intimacy issues, anger, self-esteem, career shifts, bipolar disorder, and ADHD.

Her work emphasizes collaboration and empowerment, inviting clients to take courageous steps toward a more satisfying life while offering support and practical tools. Heather integrates several evidence-informed approaches to meet a range of needs, and she attends to additional topics including attachment and abandonment issues, caregiver stress, chronic health challenges, and diverse sexual cultures and identities.

She aims to create a thoughtful, respectful therapeutic experience focused on clients’ goals and values.

Therapeutic approaches and online access

Heather often draws on Client-Centered Therapy, which focuses on listening, empathy, and creating a supportive space where the client's perspective guides the work. This approach helps people clarify values, build self-understanding, and strengthen their own problem-solving capacity. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to teach practical skills for managing symptoms like anxiety, depression, and stress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) techniques may be integrated when emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness are priority targets.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Heather collaborates with each person to determine which methods best fit their goals, preferences, and life circumstances. She tailors interventions and adjusts strategies as progress is made so clients remain active partners in planning treatment.

Online sessions are offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to provide flexibility for different schedules and needs. These formats can make it easier to attend regular sessions, practice skills between meetings, and maintain continuity of care when life gets busy or unpredictable.
