I grew up in a small town in Hawaii, then came to Southern California and began studying psychology in 2001. I completed my master’s degree at Fuller School of Psychology in 2010 and served children and families at a community mental health agency for 10 years, also starting a private practice in 2015. While I loved island life, I’ve put down roots here through friendships, involvement in my community, and my love of LA’s cultural diversity.
My work is grounded in behavioral therapy, and a firm belief that people can change. I prefer a flexible and collaborative approach that evolves as we work together. Though the foundation of my work is behavioral, I develop integrated treatment plans for each new client, drawing on other evidence-based modalities and new research.
Hello,

Hello, Heather here. LMFT in Florida & California. My mission in therapy is to create a space where you will feel safe enough to just be yourself. I understand how difficult it is to seek counseling, to open up and share your experiences and struggles with another person. Therapy is my passion and I have over 25 years providing positive, successful & attainable results with various clients.
Weather you have been considering therapy, worked with therapy in the past or loved ones are suggesting reaching out-welcome to my practice. I work with individuals, couples and families in the assessment and treatment of anxiety, depression, relationship issues, career issues, job dissatisfaction. My specialty areas included the assessment and treatment of Perinatal and Postpartum Depression/Anxiety and Grief and Loss.
There's a version of getting through life that looks completely fine from the outside and feels exhausting on the inside. I work with teens, young adults, and adults who are carrying more than it shows: anxiety, the aftereffects of trauma, major life transitions, or relationship patterns that keep repeating in ways that are hard to explain. I have a particular focus on trauma and attachment wounds and work with many clients who've spent years managing symptoms without ever addressing what's underneath them. My practice is warm and genuinely collaborative. I'll show up as a real partner in your growth, not a distant presence behind a notepad.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Postpartum Therapist in Fontana
Finding postpartum therapists in Fontana starts with looking for care that fits the concerns you want to address. Postpartum support can include help with postpartum depression, postpartum anxiety, birth-related stress, identity changes, and relationship strain. As you compare therapists, look for training and listed specialties in perinatal mental health, maternal mental health therapy, or postpartum counseling. The PMH-C credential can also signal specialized training in perinatal mental health.
Fontana offers local access to therapists, and nearby areas across San Bernardino County may add more options. For new parents, the right fit often depends on more than specialty. Appointment availability, session format, and scheduling flexibility can matter when your calendar includes infant care, physical recovery, and changing routines. Virtual appointments can make it easier to meet with a postpartum depression counselor or therapist for postpartum anxiety when getting to an office is hard. Reading therapist bios can help you see how they describe their approach, communication style, and experience with prenatal and postpartum concerns before you book.
Therapy in Fontana can be a significant cost without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who are accepting new patients, see available insurance details, and view upfront cost estimates after you enter your insurance details. You can compare postpartum counselors near you, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
