Client Reviews
Through the toughest situations and hardest times, Heather Lorner has been a constant support system. A therapist who truly listens with compassion and understanding but pushes you to grow and challenge yourself. Heather creates an environment where anyone can be themselves openly and freely, without fear. Her soft spoken manner allows you to feel comfortable enough to open up, but her firm grasp on the situation helps you come to your own realizations about how to improve your lifestyle. A therapist who will not give you what you want but what you need and will help make your life one worth living. Her kindness is incomparable, complimented by her toughness and passion for seeing you improve. Heather has been my therapist for several years now and has not only helped me grow into a stronger, more independent, and stable young lady but has given me the power to save my own life time and time again. Heather makes herself extremely available to her patients and has very flexible hours.

I wish I had enough words to explain how compassionate Heather has been in my time seeing her. I began seeing her when I was a junior in high school and I am now a junior in college. Her gentle and welcoming spirit made it super easy to trust her with what I was dealing with. Heather listened and validated my feelings, even when it was a minor issue. She has guided me through some of the darkest moments in my life. She has seen me at my worst and best. I have been able to trust her with my smallest and biggest issues. Her deep care for me has played a major role in my recovery from depression. I will forever be grateful for Heather and the fact that she allowed my voice to be heard, when I felt no one else was listening.
