Heather Bade
Clinical Social Worker/Therapist - LMSW
In order to provide a safe environment for clients to open up and share their most personal thoughts and feelings, I begin with a compassionate approach. This means I put myself in the client’s shoes and work at their pace allowing them to experience complete healing that is personalized to them.
I use evidence-based practice to ensure ethical practice allowing clients to begin to experience relief in the shortest amount of time. Client’s create personalized treatment goals and intentionally work toward achieving objectives to resolve their issues in a way that is most effective for them.
I work well with individuals, couples, and families. My therapeutic approach works well with adolescents and adults. I treat a range of problems including trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, and substance abuse.I operate in a self-determination based environment and respect the right for client’s decision to decide whether or not to incorporate Spirituality in their therapy. Everyone is welcome to seek help in this non-judgmental, positive environment.
