Heather Balzomo, LCSW

Psychotherapist
OR
Hi there, I'm Heather! Individuals often carry stress, trauma, and mental health symptoms for years before deciding to take a bit of control. I aim to support and guide you through times when symptoms or stressors have become too much to hold on your own, identifying coping strategies and thought patterns that don’t serve you well. My focus I am a well-trained and experienced therapist. I want each client to feel safe sharing sensitive information and trust that anything shared will not be disclosed. I am bound by confidentiality laws and required to protect each client’s privacy. I am honored to hear from you and explore strategies for resolving dysfunctional patterns of behavior. My approach I use a variety of therapeutic tools tailored specifically to your needs. I often use Cognitive Behavioral Therapy as a foundation where we will look at patterns of behaviors and reactions that aren't functional for you. I spend time with clients to learn/practice self-regulation tools that can allow you to be more intentional in responses. My communication style I am open-minded and attuned to my clients. I tailor sessions to meet the needs of the client, but I generally help clients find the confidence and support they need to make changes that move them towards their goals. My goals for you I take a collaborative approach with clients. I spend time learning history and what patterns of response have not served clients to reach their goals. I explore alternative responses and what might support clients to move towards their goals. I work on helping clients increase self-regulation skills so they can be less reactive in their responses.
