Heather Williams, LCSW

Heather Williams, LCSW

Psychotherapist
MD
Hello, I'm Heather. If you're worried about your future, struggling to stay positive, wondering whether to stay or leave, or feeling irritated much of the time, I can help you. You don't have to stay 'stuck.' We'll work together until you can get clear and move forward. As a school social worker and psychotherapist in private practice, I've helped hundreds of individuals, couples, and families navigate difficult situations, deal with painful losses, and even welcome surprisingly challenging successes. I specialize in cognitive-behavioral and solution-focused treatment, as well as Gottman and relational therapy for couples. Together, we will identify specific goals and frequently review your progress. I often give simple behavioral homework so that you can experience change between sessions. My approach is active, and you will not wonder what I am thinking. I offer astute assessment skills, and typically, clients leave the first session with a new, more hopeful perspective on their capacity to move forward. I am well-versed in body-mind techniques to relieve anxiety, and my extensive training in systems thinking helps clients navigate family and work relationships. I was born in Vermont and obtained my MSW with honors from California State University, Sacramento. I received two years of post-graduate training in transgenerational family therapy, worked in three different school systems as a related-service provider for disabled children and their families, and have been in private practice for the past twenty years. I've traveled extensively to places like Guatemala, Mexico, Ireland, Greece, Italy, France, and Brazil. If you're ready to take the next step towards a more fulfilling life, I invite you to reach out. Let's work together to help you move forward with clarity and confidence.
