About Heather

Heather Caiazzo is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with 29 years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, and depression. She helps clients facing body image concerns, social anxiety, relationship and communication problems, guilt and shame, and feelings of isolation.

Heather emphasizes practical steps that can be used between sessions to ease distress and build confidence. Heather centers sessions on each person’s own experience and strengths.

Background and approach

She treats people as the experts on their lives and works together with them to set clear, achievable goals. Her approach often includes techniques from client-centered work, cognitive behavioral therapy, emotionally-focused methods, and EMDR when appropriate. She has licensure in both Florida and California and brings decades of clinical work to the room.

Heather also offers personality assessment to help people better understand their natural patterns and how those patterns affect choices and relationships. That information is used to create realistic plans for change. Sessions focus on skill-building, emotion regulation, and improving communication.

Heather uses tools that help reduce symptoms and increase motivation, self-love, and a sense of purpose. The work is collaborative and paced to each person’s needs. Heather believes taking the first step takes courage and aims to provide steady support throughout the process.

She helps clients translate insights into day-to-day habits so progress continues after each session.

Online support

How therapeutic approaches translate to online care

Client-centered therapy focuses on listening, understanding, and building on what already works for a person; online sessions use this style to help clients name goals and try small changes between meetings. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical skills for managing anxiety, depression, and stress in day-to-day life. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, EMDR, is used to reduce the intensity of traumatic memories by guiding attention while processing those memories; elements of EMDR can be adapted for remote work when appropriate.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Heather will collaborate with each person to decide which methods fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. Together they test techniques and adjust direction based on what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face interaction for in-depth work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text messaging support brief updates, skill coaching, and ongoing encouragement between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule and sustain progress over time.
