About Heather

Heather Kerble is a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) with seven years of experience supporting people confronting stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, and relationship challenges.

Background and approach

She also works with clients navigating LGBT concerns, family conflict, grief, eating and body image struggles, parenting questions, ADHD-related issues, and difficulties with self esteem and self-love. Heather emphasizes client strengths and treats each person as the expert in their own story while offering guidance and skills that foster change.

Her practice blends practical, evidence-informed techniques with an empathetic, collaborative stance. Heather draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy alongside client-centered and mindfulness-informed methods to help people reframe unhelpful patterns and build coping skills.

She invites a respectful partnership focused on measurable steps and individualized goals. Heather is licensed in Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and South Carolina and is currently accepting new clients in her independent practice; prospective clients may ask about insurance and personal-pay options.

Practical approaches for online therapy and growth



Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and replacing them with more constructive patterns; it is often used for anxiety, depression, and stress-related problems. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, accepting relationship where the therapist listens closely and helps the client clarify their goals and strengths. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and acceptance skills that can reduce reactivity and support emotion regulation in daily life.

Heather approaches online work as a collaborative process, helping clients test different methods to discover what fits their needs and preferences. Together they consider goals, past experiences, and practical constraints to choose approaches and adjust techniques over time so therapy remains aligned with changing priorities.

Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, online therapy provides flexibility for people with busy schedules or mobility constraints. These formats make it easier to attend sessions from home, follow up between sessions, and access consistent support despite geographic distance, while allowing Heather to adapt interventions to the medium the client prefers.
