I’m Dr. Heather Cromwell, a Licensed Professional Counselor providing telehealth therapy to adults in Alaska and Oregon. I have over 10 years of experience working in behavioral health across outpatient, inpatient, and community mental health settings, including extensive work with individuals experiencing serious and persistent mental illness, anxiety, depression, trauma, life transitions, burnout, and emotional overwhelm.
My background includes a Ph.D. and Master’s degree in Industrial-Organizational Psychology, along with years of leadership and program development experience in behavioral healthcare. I bring both clinical expertise and a practical, person-centered approach to therapy.
I believe therapy works best when clients feel genuinely seen, heard, and emotionally safe. My style is warm, collaborative, direct when helpful, and grounded in authenticity. I work to create a space where clients can better understand themselves, strengthen coping skills, improve relationships, process difficult experiences, and move toward meaningful change at a pace that feels manageable and supportive.
I understand that reaching out for support can feel vulnerable, and I strive to make the process feel approachable and comfortable from the very beginning.
Great to meet you! As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 30 years in the mental health field and 16 years practicing therapy, I bring a wealth of experience to our work together. While I welcome clients of all ages, I specialize in supporting children and adolescents, with a standout focus on ADHD. When working with adults, my areas of expertise include navigating anxiety, processing grief, and building self-esteem. My goal is to create a safe, welcoming space where we can tackle these challenges together and help you or your child thrive.
I am a wife, mother, and grandmother, and I come from a long line of career military men. Before becoming a psychologist, I taught young children with special needs. My work with their families inspired me to pursue psychology—I wanted to do more to help.
Although I am highly trained in working with children, I also treat adults. I use evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Cognitive Processing Therapy (CPT), Prolonged Exposure (PE), Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brief Solution-Focused Therapy, Play Therapy, and Narrative Therapy. I don’t use one approach for every client; instead, I tailor my methods to each person’s needs and goals.
I’ve been a counselor for over forty years and have worked in a variety of settings. That doesn’t make me an expert, just seasoned wood. I have a master’s degree in rehabilitation counseling, I’m a licensed professional counselor, and a certified substance use counselor. My background has been in both the mental health and substance use treatment fields, which has been a good mix since these issues often go together. I also work with couples when appropriate, especially when relationship stressors are impacting mental health or vice-versa.
Hi, fellow Alaskans. I’m a board-certified Psychiatric–Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) who understands the unique realities of accessing care living in the 49th state.
I provide medication management and supportive psychotherapy via tele-health to help promote access to care.
I specialize in the treatment of mental health disorders across the lifespan but specialize in adults with a wide variety of symptoms.
I hold a certification in perinatal mental health (PMH-C), supporting my patients during pregnancy and the postpartum period. As the wife of a veteran, I enjoy working with first-responders and military/veterans. I've had additional, extensive training and experience in OCD, ADHD and a variety of mood disorders.
Hello! I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) and able to serve clients in the states of FL, AK, MO, and MA. I am passionate about working with adults who are ready to explore their vulnerabilities and become better versions of themselves. I understand that taking that first step to ask for help is the hardest, and that all the hurt, frustration, and pain that brought you to this point are all valid! In my office you can expect to be able to share your experiences in an open and safe environment.
I am a dedicated and compassionate licensed therapist with over six years of experience in the field. Some of my areas of expertise and specializations include but are not limited to Anxiety, Depression, intimacy-related issues, self-esteem issues, addictions, personality disorders, and life decisions. My mission is to provide a safe and supportive environment where individuals/couples can explore their challenges, find solutions, and ultimately achieve greater well-being and personal growth.
I am able to evaluate and make diagnoses, and/or support existing diagnoses and work with you for a 'best-fit' solution to your needs. So many come from a past of being told they are 'X, Y, Z" and often misdiagnosed or underdiagnosed.
My goal is to help find a good treatment start point that resonates with you and provide evidence-based treatment to support your needs, goals, and desires to bring relief and remission, joy and hope.
All options on the table including progressive medication management, psychotherapy and counseling, or referrals for other modalities including deepTMS.
Feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, weighed down by depression, or stuck in the same relationship patterns? You may know something needs to change without knowing where to start.
I’m Todd Forsman, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with 23 years of experience, licensed in Oregon, Washington, and Alaska. I offer online therapy for adolescents and adults, including individual, couples, and family sessions. I help clients navigate anxiety, depression, trauma, and relationship or family concerns. Together, we can work toward understanding what keeps you stuck and developing practical ways to move forward.
