Hell0! My name is Heavin Schmidt and I am an LPC. I have been licensed for 10+ years and have experience working with those who have experienced trauma, life changes, and crisis situations. I am looking forward to helping you on your journey.
My approach
I am trained in TF-CBT and EMDR. I also find value in solution-focused work and crisis management.
My focus
I am most interested in helping young adults navigate through life changes, crises, and past trauma and its impact on their day-to-day interactions.
My communication style
I have a calming personality and tone. I work to maintain that calm as we work to develop a trusting therapeutic relationship.
My journey to mental healthcare
I have always had an interest in the helping professions. I started my career in social work as I continued to work towards a degree and licensure in counseling. I love the work because I value the impact a single interaction can have on someone's life and perspective.
My goals for you
I take a client-centered approach and offer my clinical opinion and guidance when appropriate.
My first session with you
During our first session, you should expect to walk through what brought you to therapy and what you hope to see differently when we end our sessions.
