Telehealth Counseling with Southern, Heidi L
As a licensed professional counselor, I bring over two decades of experience in mental health to my telehealth practice, specializing in empowering clients to achieve greater self-awareness and emotional well-being. My approach integrates cognitive-behavioral, person-centered, and psychodynamic therapies, enhanced by the transformative Enneagram system for personalized growth. I hold licenses in both Texas and Arizona, supported by a Master of Arts in Professional Counseling and a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology. My practice addresses diverse challenges including anxiety, relationship issues, LGBTQ+ concerns, and life transitions, with a commitment to creating a non-judgmental space for clients to explore their unique paths to healing.Certified as an Enneagram teacher in the Narrative Tradition, I combine traditional counseling methods with this ancient personality system to help clients identify and overcome barriers to their fullest potential. My experience spans crisis counseling, eating disorder support, and private practice, always prioritizing client autonomy and compassionate guidance. Telehealth sessions through Doxy.me ensure accessibility while maintaining strict confidentiality, reflecting my dedication to modern, client-centered care.
