Getting to know Heather Washburn

Change can be challenging, and I understand the emotions that come with navigating anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship concerns, parenting issues, and life transitions. My goal is to meet you where you are and support you as you navigate challenges and uncertainty. With a warm, casual, and empathetic approach, I create a safe space where you feel heard and understood. I tailor my treatment to fit your unique needs and pace, working collaboratively to explore obstacles and create meaningful change. While I work with individuals and couples on a variety of issues, I have specialized experience in sex therapy and parenting. I hold an MSEd in School Counseling from Alfred University, which informs my understanding of developmental and family dynamics in therapy.
