Getting to know Heather Soellner
I work with adolescents, teens, and adults who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, perfectionism, OCD, relationship challenges, life transitions, burnout, or simply trying to figure out who they are and where they're headed. My style is warm, down-to-earth, and genuinely human. Think of therapy as a space where you can walk in, take a breath, and say, “OMG, here's what's going on,” and I'll respond, "OMG, tell me!" Together, we'll make sense of what's happening, uncover patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and develop practical tools that help you move forward. With over a decade of experience, I combine evidence-based approaches with a personalized style that honors your unique personality, strengths, and goals.
The provider is a “Licensed Professional Counselor" and their license number is 37PC01073100.
What should a new client know about working with you?
I work with people who are feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, OCD, depression, trauma, ADHD, perfectionism, or burnout. My approach is affirming, compassionate, and grounded in genuine conversation. Whether you're navigating identity, relationship challenges, minority stress, performance pressure, self-doubt, or a major life transition, therapy can be a space where you don't have to carry it all alone.
Together, we'll explore the patterns, beliefs, and experiences that may be contributing to your distress while building practical tools to help you move forward. I often help clients challenge automatic negative thoughts, consider alternative perspectives, and develop a more balanced and compassionate understanding of themselves and their experiences. My goal isn't to tell you what to think, but to help you see situations from new angles, increase self-awareness, and make choices that align with your values and goals.
I also work with athletes, performers, and other high-achieving individuals who often feel pressure to be "on" all the time. Therapy offers a space to step back, make sense of what's happening, and develop the confidence, resilience, and flexibility needed to thrive, not just perform. You don't need to have all the answers before you start; we'll figure them out together!
What is your typical process for working with clients?
Therapy with me is a relaxed, collaborative space where you can show up exactly as you are: no perfect words, polished explanations, or having-it-all-together required. Think of it as a place where you can finally say, "Okay, here's what's really been going on," and know you'll be met with curiosity, compassion, and zero judgment.
Together, we'll explore the patterns, beliefs, and experiences that may be keeping you stuck, while building practical tools to help you feel more confident and in control of your life. I encourage clients to challenge automatic negative thoughts, consider different perspectives, and develop a more balanced and compassionate relationship with themselves. Sometimes the most powerful changes happen when we learn to look at a situation through a new lens.
While therapy is grounded in evidence-based approaches, I believe growth happens through authentic human connection. Expect insight, honesty, humor, and the occasional deep dive into pop culture moments. You may even catch a cameo appearance from my dog, Enzo!
I offer convenient online video sessions through a simple, user-friendly telehealth platform. Once you're scheduled, you'll receive a secure link by email; just click and join from wherever you feel most comfortable.
With over 12 years of experience working with adolescents, teens, and adults, I bring a grounded, relatable approach that balances professional expertise with genuine connection. My goal is to help you better understand yourself, navigate life's challenges with greater flexibility, and create meaningful, lasting change.
