Heather Denton

Are you feeling overwhelmed or struggling with a major life transition? I can help! I will help you grow by helping you build a trusting relationship so that we can navigate life's many ups and downs. Engaging in therapy, allows time for self reflection, the creation of new behavior patterns and ultimately sustainable change.

I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker who has been providing care to adolescents since 2001. I have a Master's in Social Work with an Advanced Training Certificate in Psychological Trauma from Boston University. Additionally, I have worked as a School Adjustment Counselor for over 20 years.

I take a holistic, strengths based approach to treatment which is tailored to best meet the needs and goals of the individual. I utilize a variety of treatment modalities, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, solution-focused therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and insight-oriented therapy in my clinical work.

I have extensive experience providing culturally responsive services and have partnered with a variety of community resources to best support my clients.

I strive to create an environment that reduces shame and promotes learning to be vulnerable in an effort to learn and grow. I also believe in the power of strong therapeutic alliance and work to ease anxiety while creating trust and safety. In our first session, I will encourage you to share your concerns and identify areas that you are looking to work on. I will also share a little about myself and my approach to the work. We can then decide together our next steps.
