About Heather
Heather Malin is an LCPC (Licensed Clinical Professional Counselor) and an LMHC (Licensed Mental Health Counselor) with 15 years of experience. She is based in Utah and works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, low self-esteem, depression, parenting concerns, intimacy-related issues, and life changes. Heather also offers coaching to support people as they set and reach personal goals.
Heather uses practical conversations to identify what gets in the way of change. She listens for what is said and what is not said, and points out patterns that clients may not notice on their own. Sessions mix short-term problem solving with deeper work on past influences when that helps current goals.
Her practice draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), client-centered methods, mindfulness, psychodynamic ideas, and solution-focused techniques. That lets her use concrete skill-building alongside exploration of how earlier experiences shape present behavior. She also integrates brief coaching when people want focused goal work.
Heather often helps people manage high-stress situations and improve communication. She works with clients on self-love, coping strategies, and clearer relationship boundaries. Practical tools, homework between sessions, and regular check-ins are common in her approach.
Sessions are intended to help people notice unhelpful thoughts, try different responses, and track what changes. Heather asks clients to name goals and then uses steps they can practice outside sessions. To start, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule an initial meeting.
How Heather uses CBT and related approaches online
Heather relies on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits and to practice alternative responses. CBT sessions often include clear skill teaching, short behavioral experiments, and homework to test what changes between meetings.She also uses client-centered methods that focus on listening and reflecting back what the client says. Mindfulness therapy is used to develop present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity through simple attention practices. These approaches can help with anxiety, stress, relationship concerns, and coping with life transitions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Heather discusses goals and preferences and then adapts techniques from CBT, client-centered work, and mindfulness to match what a person wants to accomplish. That may mean shorter solution-focused steps or deeper exploration depending on the situation.
