Heather Foster(She/Her/Hers)

Heather Foster is trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), verbal psychotherapy, couples therapy, and creative arts therapies. She specializes in working with teens, adults, and couples in areas related to anxiety, depression, and PTSD/C-PTSD; sexuality and gender; substance use; parenting; and dynamics occurring in relationships.

Heather’s approach is relational, person-centered, collaborative, and LGBTIA+ affirming. Heather invites compassion, curiosity, and openness into sessions so that clients can gain insight into their patterns, make meaning of their experiences, and live more fully in the present.

Through utilizing therapies that incorporate and expand beyond conventional talk therapy, Heather's clients are able to see the benefits of emotional, cognitive, creative, and body-based processes, which when blended together, enhances people's ability to engage in emotional regulation, learn new behaviors, and develop more secure and responsive attachments. Over time, this practice can help people lean more into the present moment, develop feelings of openness, and engage with the brain and body's natural desire to move towards healing.

Heather’s sessions are held virtually via Zoom and in-person in downtown Brooklyn. She is available for a free 15 minute phone consultation to discuss themes related to reasons for seeking therapy, as well as discussing details like scheduling and billing.
