About Heather
Heather Goodman-D'Anna is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Louisiana with 11 years of experience. She focuses on stress and anxiety, relationship concerns, parenting questions, self-esteem, and confidence. Heather works with adults who notice patterns from their family of origin affecting current relationships and daily life.
She uses clear, practical conversations to help people recognize recurring patterns. Sessions focus on what is happening now and on small steps that can change daily routines and reactions. Heather draws on client-centered methods and structured tools to make progress feel manageable.
Her approach mixes talk with active techniques. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify unhelpful thoughts and test new behaviors. Mindfulness exercises are used to slow down overwhelming reactions and build awareness of the present moment.
Motivational Interviewing supports people who are unsure about change, and solution-focused ideas help set short-term goals. Heather also addresses concerns such as grief, addictions, intimacy issues, ADHD, mood disorders, and family of origin issues when they come up in sessions.
Sessions aim to improve communication, reduce emotional reactivity, and increase day-to-day coping. Heather encourages straightforward planning and small experiments between meetings. People who reach out can expect concrete steps and a steady focus on real-life problems.
How Heather uses therapy approaches in online sessions
Heather commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy in her work. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing new behaviors to reduce anxiety and improve mood. Mindfulness Therapy uses simple attention and breathing practices to help people pause and notice strong emotions without acting on them.She also uses elements of Motivational Interviewing to clarify readiness for change and solution-focused techniques to set short-term, achievable goals. Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss needs, goals, and preferences and then try methods that fit the person's life and priorities.
