Getting to know Heidi Guthrie
Hello & welcome! My name is Heidi Guthrie & I am a clinically trained Art Therapist & LMFT. I received my B.A. in Psychology & Human Development from Cal State University San Bernardino & my M.A. in Marital & Family Therapy with an emphasis in Clinical Art Therapy from Loyola Marymount University. I also possess a PPS Credential in School Counseling & have worked extensively in the public school system as an Educationally Related Mental Health Services Therapist (ERMHS) for Special Education, in addition to private practice. I love spending time doing art, whatever art I can! Painting & woodworking are two of my favorites! I enjoy spending time outdoors, camping, going to the beach, dirt biking, pretending I know how to garden (lol), & anything that involves nature! You can usually find me hiking around our mini farm with my family, taking care of one of many critters who call our property home!
My approach
I approach therapy with empathy, warmth, & compassion & as a result, I utilize client-centered approaches & integrative models that ensure each & every client feels heard, understood, & supported. I use Client-Centered, Supportive, Positive, Compassion, & Strength-Based approaches, as well as CBT & Family Systems. Of course, Art Therapy is my go-to favorite modality as well as Mindfulness approaches. My specialties include working with learning disabilities, child/teen emotional disturbance, ADD/ADHD, anxiety, family issues, autism, parenting, self-esteem issues, depression, & trauma, to name a few.
My focus
I enjoy working with young children through teens, who might need a little extra assistance with life challenges, such as academic struggles due to mental health-related needs, ADD/ADHD, anxiety, autism, etc. Parents, families, & adults of all ages are welcome too!
