I approach therapy with respect, curiosity, and a bit of humor. I offer trauma-informed care which has led me to work with people who have gone through hard times and survived. I earned my master’s degree from Michigan State University and have stayed in the East Lansing area since then, working in local residential treatment facilities for teens and in an outpatient intensive treatment program with adults. I have spent the last 15 years working with adults in crisis, whether that is temporary situations like relationship issues or more chronic conditions.
In my approach to counseling, I use Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Solution Focus Therapy and Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy as the main approaches to counseling. It is important that each client's needs are met through their counseling experience, therefore, counseling is not limited to the above approaches. Biblical principles are also used as an approach to counseling. Counseling will be provided to a diverse population of individuals. Optimum health and healing is possible if you are willing to do the work! Be Willing!
Hello and welcome.
I’m a licensed therapist with over 10 years of experience supporting individuals, couples, and families across a range of settings—including colleges, group practices, healthcare systems, and now in my private practice. My clinical foundation includes seven years of graduate training (MS and PhD), and I began my career as a social worker in non-profit LGBT health and hospital inpatient care.
I specialize in trauma-informed care and work with people navigating depression, anxiety, and overwhelming stress.
I typically work with clients long-term, building a therapeutic relationship grounded in warmth, honesty, and trust. I’m easy to talk to, and I invite collaboration and transparency in every session—believing that healing happens when people feel safe, understood, and empowered.
I work with children and teens (ages 7+), young adults, adults, couples, families, and relationship partners. Whether you're seeking support for yourself or navigating challenges in your relationships, I’m here to help you move toward a more connected and fulfilling life.
Clients should know that I bring warmth, empathy, and a genuine commitment to their growth. I create a safe and supportive environment where their voices are valued, and their goals are prioritized. With encouragement and guidance, I help clients navigate challenges and celebrate meaningful progress along their journey.
Hello! It's great to meet you. My name is Heather Reid and I am a licensed clinical social worker (LMSW). I have been a practicing social worker since December 2019 and have experience working in both medical social work as well as psychotherapy.
Throughout my career, I have worked with adults navigating anxiety, depression, grief and loss, chronic illness, relationship stress, women's issues, life transitions, and trauma. I also have specialized experience supporting frontline workers and individuals impacted by medical trauma.

Factors to Consider When Choosing a Mental Health Therapist in Livonia
Searching for therapists in Livonia starts with knowing what kind of support you want. Some Livonia therapists focus on anxiety, depression, grief, life transitions, or relationship challenges, while others may have experience with trauma, stress, or family concerns. As you compare options, look for a therapist whose listed specialties, therapy style, and experience match what you want to work on. A profile that mentions approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, or acceptance and commitment therapy can help you understand how they may structure care.
Livonia is a smaller city, so local in-person openings may be more limited than in larger metro areas. Virtual therapy can expand your options across Michigan while still letting you choose a therapist licensed to provide care in the state. When narrowing your search, consider appointment availability, whether the therapist is accepting new clients, and whether their schedule works with your routine. Reading therapist bios before booking can also show how each therapist describes their communication style, session structure, and areas of focus.
Therapy in Livonia can be a significant expense without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and understand what you may pay before care begins. Headway helps you find therapists who accept a wide range of insurance plans, verify your benefits, and see estimated out-of-pocket costs before you book. You can browse therapists in Livonia, review bios, and book directly when you’re ready.
