“Heather was welcoming, easy to communicate with and nonjudgmental. She showed a true compassion and interest for the topics I brought up and want to discuss in the future. We chose a particular day and time for further sessions and I look forward to working with Heather. I feel there’s a connection and I logged in my calendar to the end of next month for our next sessions. I believe it’s important to note that today was my first session with Heather and the above details are how I feel.”

Getting to know Heather Baker
Disclaimer: Providers at Canino Psychotherapy focus on therapy services and do not prescribe medication, as they are not psychiatrists.
Nobody knows you better than you know yourself. And yet, the world and the people in your life sometimes have a way of making you doubt this. It is my goal to help you remember who you are, discover the strengths you already possess, and learn to apply them to your life.
I believe in creating a safe, inclusive space for all the people I serve. My hope is that you will find our sessions to be a place where you get to be yourself without fear or judgment. Together, we will become a team dedicated to meeting your goals. Through our work, we will begin to break down some of the damaging beliefs many of us hold. For example, you aren't strong because of what happened to you. You were always strong. The event is simply what caused you to use your power.
I earned my Master's in Social Work from Nazareth College of Arts and Science, which has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to support diverse communities effectively. My strength is working with members of the LGBTQ+ community. You will find me to be affirming, understanding, and knowledgeable of the issues impacting your community. I have experience with folks at all different stages of exploring their gender identity, as well as writing letters for gender-affirming surgery.
Beyond this, I welcome people from all racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds. If you are ready to take care of yourself, I am ready to join you on your journey.
What should a new client know about working with you?
My therapeutic style is relational. As a member of your team, I engage with you, creating a space for you to share your thoughts and feelings, and provide feedback and support.
*Please kindly note that we do not provide psychiatry services (medication) and are unable to accept UnitedHealthcare Medicaid insurance plans at this time.
What is your typical process for working with clients?
My sessions are set up to follow the needs of my client. You might need a few minutes of small talk to lead you to the bigger stuff. Or you may want to dive right in. Both are ok. From there, we will engage in a conversation addressing your strengths, needs, and goals. Hopefully through all of this, you will feel safe and free to be you.
