About Heather
Heather Hunter is a Licensed Professional Counselor in Idaho who uses a person-centered approach to guide people through difficult moments. She focuses on trauma and abuse, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, parenting concerns, anger, and related struggles. Heather communicates plainly and aims to make therapy feel manageable for busy families.
Heather has four years of counseling experience. Much of her work has involved children and adolescents, and she now extends those skills to adults.
Background and approach
She draws on Trauma-Focused Therapy when trauma is central, helping people name what happened and how it affects them now. Her sessions reflect Client-Centered Therapy, which means she listens first and follows each person's priorities. Motivational Interviewing is used when someone needs help finding or strengthening reasons to change.
Heather often offers optional resources and simple homework to support progress between visits. She helps people talk through parenting strain, coping with life changes, workplace stress, grief, and challenges tied to ADHD, attachment, or abandonment. Practical steps and straightforward conversation are central to her style.
Heather aims to create a gentle, nonjudgmental space where honest feelings are welcomed. Sessions are offered via video calls, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. Heather works with people in Idaho and conducts therapy in English.
If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule based on the therapist's availability.
