Getting to know Vanessa Heim

UpLift Behavioral Health providers do not issue prescriptions for substances controlled by any federal or state agency or other drugs that may be harmful because of their potential for abuse. UpLift Behavioral Health reserves the right to limit the types of medications that may be prescribed by its doctors and nurse practitioners. All prescriptions furnished by UpLift Behavioral Health care providers are issued in accordance with applicable federal and state law as well as UpLift Behavioral Health policy. I am licensed in Virginia and New Mexico with 25 years of professional work experience. I hold a Master’s in Counseling and Development from George Mason University. I have experience helping clients with anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, and thought disorders. I am trained in CPT (Cognitive Processing Therapy) for PTSD and have many years of experience teaching coping skills in DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy). My approach is mind/body focused and based in mindfulness. I work with my clients to create an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment. It takes courage to seek a more fulfilling and happier life and to take that first step toward change. I am here to support and empower you on your journey.

What is your typical process for working with clients?

My approach is client centered, focused on building coping skills to manage anxiety, depression, and distress. Using cognitive/behavioral skills to improve mood and emotion regulation.
