My goal is to empower people to look at the bigger picture of what is possible for them.

My name is Heidi Dryer and I obtained my license as a Marriage and Family Therapist in 2015 but I have been practicing since 2012. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional. I am also certified in Nutritional and Integrative Medicine for Mental Health. I have extensive experience working with individuals from all walks of life.

Hi, I’m a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist who brings a fun-loving, nerdy vibe to the work I do. I love helping individuals and families understand each other better, and I have a special passion for neurodivergent folks—especially my fellow ADHD adventurers. I’m trauma-informed and not afraid to walk with you into the darker, trickier parts of your story so you don’t have to face them alone. My style is flexible, collaborative, and a little eclectic, pulling from EMDR, CBT, ACT, and family-focused approaches to find whatever actually helps you level up in life.

Life’s challenges can be overwhelming, but you do not need to navigate them alone. Finding a therapist you resonate with is the first step in feeling supported, understood, and moving toward meaningful change. My practice includes working with individuals 18+, couples and families. I am experienced in the treatment of depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, relationship issues, life transitions, phobias, self-esteem, anger management, addictions, grief and loss.

I am a Person-Centered therapist who integrates a variety of evidence-based and experiential modalities to support each client’s unique needs. My approach is grounded in empathy, authenticity, and a strong therapeutic alliance.

For clients experiencing trauma, I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to help process and resolve distressing experiences in a safe and structured way.

I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Motivational Interviewing (MI), and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy to support clients in building practical skills, increasing insight, and creating meaningful change.

As a Certified Clinical Anxiety Treatment Professional (CCATP), I specialize in working with anxiety-related concerns and may integrate Emotional Freedom Techniques (tapping) as a complementary mind-body approach.

When working with couples, I draw from both Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) and Gottman Method to help partners strengthen emotional connection, improve communication, and navigate conflict more effectively.

Healing is everyone's inherent right, just as healing involves therapeutic care that is free of judgment and work that is done collaboratively, in a compassionate manner, and in a manner that is tailored to your specific needs. Hi, I am Dr. Neal, and I am committed to providing you with this type of therapeutic care.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and hold a doctoral degree in clinical psychology. I am in the licensure process to become a Clinical Psychologist. In addition, I hold an MS degree in Clinical Psychopharmacology and am a JD Cand. (I have completed 1L of law school.)

My work as a humanitarian at a young age shaped my footsteps towards becoming a mental health provider. I have worked with a multitude of individuals from different ethnic, religious, gender, and educational backgrounds. My work over the years has been with individuals who are suffering from Chronic illness, Mood disturbance, trauma, grief, and even experiencing a life transition. I have worked in Residential treatment facilities, Intensive outpatient and Inpatient facilities, a trauma-only women's facility, and worked with the chronically ill population (Sickle Cell Anemia, Lupus, Cancer, Fibromyalgia, to mention a few). When working with a client, I do not see a diagnosis as that client's identity; I see just an individual who is struggling with symptoms associated with a mental health diagnosis. I often convey to my clients that "Your challenges and struggles do not define you; it is how you go about addressing them that does." I am invested in healing and self-care, not as a cliche but as a way of living a life that is emotionally regulated and self-loving.

Great to meet you!

As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I believe prioritizing mental health is key to happiness and stability in life. Asking for help can be one of the toughest challenges, so congratulations on taking that first step! I’ve been practicing for 10 years, and my main focus are adult clients who are struggling with PTSD, anxiety and depression.

Everyone faces emotional challenges at some point in life. In today's virtual world and remote work, feelings of loneliness or disconnection from family, friends and coworkers- combined with daily stressors, difficulties in interpersonal relationships, and work-related pressures- can make these struggles even more overwhelming. If you are experiences depression or anxiety, feeling stuck despite your continued best efforts, or finding that your quality of life isn't where you want it to be, psychotherapy can provide the support, guidance, and tools to help create meaningful change.

Just joined Headway. I'm excited to be here. I love my work with clients. My goal is to uplift my clients toward being their best confident purposeful selves.
