About Heather

Heather Goodman-D'Anna practices from a client-centered perspective, emphasizing a collaborative and respectful partnership to explore what matters most to each person.

Background and approach

With 11 years of professional experience as an LPC in Louisiana, she helps clients build practical skills for coping with stress, anxiety, mood concerns, and life transitions while also addressing relationship and parenting challenges.

Her work often focuses on improving self-esteem and confidence, and she integrates approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and mindfulness to support clearer thinking and emotional regulation. Heather creates an atmosphere where thoughts and feelings can be expressed without fear of judgment, and she tailors interventions to each individual's goals and values.

Her experience includes attention to grief, trauma-related concerns, addiction and co-occurring issues, and intimacy-related matters. Clients considering therapy can expect a steady, supportive presence that emphasizes skill-building and realistic strategies for change.

Heather encourages potential clients to recognize the courage in beginning therapy and to take the first step toward making meaningful, practical shifts in their lives.

Therapeutic approaches and online care

Heather blends client-centered therapy with cognitive behavioral techniques to create a collaborative, goal-oriented process. Client-centered therapy emphasizes empathy, active listening, and the client's own expertise about their life, which helps people feel heard and respected. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying and shifting unhelpful thoughts and behaviors to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, low mood, and difficulties with concentration.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Heather works together with clients to decide which methods best fit their needs, goals, and personal preferences. She adapts strategies over time based on progress and feedback so the work remains practical and relevant.

Online sessions offer flexibility through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, letting clients connect in ways that suit their schedules and comfort levels. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care during busy periods or life transitions while still focusing on building skills, managing stress, and addressing relationship or attention-related concerns.
