About Heather

Heather Pullen is a Texas licensed clinical social worker (LCSW) who supports people coping with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, career obstacles, ADHD, relationship and family challenges, trauma, sleep difficulties, anger, and depression.

Background and approach

She brings three years of professional experience and frames clients as the experts in their own lives, helping them draw on existing strengths to address current struggles. Her background also includes attention to adoption and foster care matters, blended family dynamics, caregiver stress, codependency, and several intimacy-related and life transition concerns such as infidelity, divorce, and midlife crisis.

Clients can expect an affirming, collaborative approach that emphasizes motivation, confidence building, and practical coaching for professional goals. Heather highlights the courage it takes to begin therapy and aims to support people through early steps and ongoing work, tailoring sessions to individual needs.

She practices in Texas, uses English, and accepts international clients for remote sessions. The focus is on helping clients identify priorities, develop coping skills, and move toward clearer decision-making and improved daily functioning.

Approaches that guide online work and practical growth

Heather draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that emphasize skill building and present-focused change. One approach focuses on strengthening coping strategies and emotional regulation to reduce anxiety and improve sleep and mood; it helps people develop concrete tools for managing day-to-day stress. Another common thread is coaching-oriented work aimed at motivation, career issues, and confidence building, which uses goal-setting and actionable steps to support professional growth and executive functioning challenges often reported alongside ADHD.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic process and happens collaboratively. She partners with clients to identify goals, tries methods that match individual needs and preferences, and adjusts the plan as progress and priorities evolve so the work remains practical and client-centered.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into a busy schedule, provide ongoing support between meetings, and allow people to access licensed professionals from Texas or abroad without travel. The variety of formats supports different communication styles and helps maintain continuity of care as needs change.
