Great to meet you!

Hi, I’m Heather Scott, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist based in Austin, TX. I specialize in working with neurodivergent individuals, including those with ADHD, Autism, and OCD. My background includes training in trauma-informed care and family systems, and I create a space that affirms LGBTQ+ identities and diverse lived experiences.

My approach to therapy

I take a client-centered and collaborative approach to therapy—you're the expert on your life, and I’m here to support your goals. I integrate evidence-based practices while tailoring each session to meet your unique needs and strengths. I prioritize creating a space that feels safe, validating, and flexible.

What you can expect from me

Clients can expect to feel heard, empowered, and supported in navigating challenges. Together, we’ll work toward clarity, confidence, and practical tools you can use in daily life. My goal is to help you build a deeper understanding of yourself and your relationships while feeling genuinely respected and accepted.
