About Heather
Heather Wilkie is a Licensed Mental Health Counselor, FL LMHC, with nine years of clinical experience. She focuses on relationship struggles, identity questions, stress and anxiety, and other concerns people bring when they feel overwhelmed.
She works with issues such as intimacy problems, codependency, coping with life changes, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief, self-esteem, and mood concerns including depression and bipolar. Heather also supports people dealing with parenting strain, sleep and eating difficulties, and workplace or career stress.
Her approach draws on practical therapies that help people notice patterns and try different responses. That can mean learning new thinking habits through cognitive behavioral work, clarifying values and committed action with Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, or practicing emotional connection skills from Emotionally-Focused Therapy.
Sessions aim to be collaborative. Heather helps clients name what isn’t working, set small goals, and practice tools between meetings. She also brings experience with attachment issues, neurodiversity including autism and Asperger syndrome, and concerns related to kink and alternative sex culture.
Heather provides care in English and practices in Florida. The subscription model for sessions may vary by location and can be canceled at any time. To begin, prospective clients complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule their first session via the online therapy options button.
How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy helps clients clarify what matters to them and take small actions in line with those values. It is useful for people stuck in people-pleasing patterns or avoiding hard feelings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and trying practical behavior changes to reduce anxiety and improve mood. It suits people who want concrete tools and short-term practice. Emotionally-Focused Therapy centers on understanding emotional responses in close relationships and learning new ways to connect, which can help with intimacy and attachment struggles.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Heather will talk with each client about goals and preferences, try methods that fit those goals, and adjust as needed based on what helps. Clients are invited to experiment with techniques and to review progress together during sessions.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life - for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a break, or removing the need to be on camera if that helps someone focus. Licensed professionals can use online sessions to teach practical skills, set behavioral experiments between meetings, and support steady progress without requiring a change to daily routines.
