About Heidi

Heidi McCarty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wyoming with three years of clinical experience. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. She also addresses issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, body image, commitment and communication problems, control issues, and feelings of emptiness.

Heidi uses clear, goal-oriented methods to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and habits. She integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) alongside approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Client-Centered Therapy. She can also use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and draws on Emotionally-Focused and Gottman-informed ideas when relevant.

In sessions she helps people name patterns, test small changes, and practice new responses to everyday stresses. Practical steps and short homework tasks are common. People work on specific problems such as intrusive thoughts, avoidance, or relationship communication skills.

Heidi has experience offering EMDR over telehealth and applies evidence-informed techniques to trauma work when appropriate. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and checks in about what methods feel useful for each person. Progress is tracked through concrete goals and observable changes.

Her practice is based in Wyoming and sessions are conducted in English. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling options through the service’s matching process.

How Heidi works with common approaches online

Heidi uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice and test unhelpful thoughts. CBT sessions often include specific exercises and short tasks to practice between meetings, which can help with anxiety, mood concerns, and repetitive worry patterns.

She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to support values-based action and to reduce struggle with difficult feelings. ACT focuses on noticing internal experiences and choosing meaningful steps aligned with what matters to the person. Client-Centered Therapy is used to keep the process collaborative and to make space for the client's priorities.

Finding the right combination of methods is part of the work. Heidi discusses options with each person and adjusts approaches based on goals, preferences, and how someone responds in early sessions. This collaborative decision-making helps identify what feels most practical and useful.

The practical benefits of online sessions include fitting appointments into a workday or household schedule and reducing travel time. Because session formats are not listed in the biography, confirm the current online and in-person options before booking through the matching process. The therapist will help plan session pacing and tasks so therapy can be integrated into daily life.
