About Heather
Heather Hunter is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) based in Idaho. She uses a person-centered approach and aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can talk about painful experiences and figure out next steps. She focuses on trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, and issues with self-esteem.
She also supports people coping with life changes, stress, grief, anger, career concerns, and challenges linked to ADHD. Phobias are listed among her areas of focus and are addressed within her broader trauma and anxiety work.
Background and approach
Heather often combines listening with practical resources. She may suggest short exercises, readings, or simple activities to try between sessions. These tools are optional and meant to support progress at a person’s own pace.
Her style centers on collaboration. Heather prioritizes understanding each person's goals and honors their experience when planning next steps. She intends to walk alongside people as they work toward healing and clearer direction.
Heather’s background includes four years of clinical practice. She has worked a lot with children and adolescents and is expanding her practice to include adults. Her approach reflects that clinical experience while staying focused on what each person needs now.
How Heather’s approaches translate to online therapy
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening without judgment and trusting the person's own knowledge about their problems. This approach helps with feeling heard, building confidence, and deciding what changes matter most. Motivational Interviewing is a collaborative way to look at ambivalence and build motivation for change; it is useful for goals like behavior shifts, career decisions, or managing ADHD-related challenges.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Heather will discuss these methods with each person and decide together which fits best based on needs, goals, and preferences. That collaborative conversation shapes which techniques and homework are tried between sessions.
Online options include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when that matters. Phone sessions can fit a short break or be used when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, tracking progress, or when written reflection feels easier. These formats aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into daily life.
