About Heidi
Heidi Herrick-Lynn is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in New Jersey who centers her work on collaborative, evidence-informed methods.
Background and approach
She draws on client-centered principles to create a respectful, empathic space and frequently integrates cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people identify and shift unhelpful patterns of thinking and behavior. With a broad toolkit that also includes dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, psychodynamic ideas, and solution-focused techniques, she adapts interventions to each person’s situation.
Across a career spanning 27 years, Heidi has supported clients facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy concerns, self-esteem struggles, parenting and family challenges, sleep problems, and life transitions. She also addresses more specific issues such as obsessive-compulsive symptoms and dynamics in polyamorous or non-monogamous relationships.
Sessions are offered in several formats to accommodate different needs, and she maintains weekday evening and weekend availability to fit varied schedules.
Integrating Approaches in Online Care
Heidi commonly uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help clients recognize and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, which can be useful for anxiety, depression, sleep issues, obsessions and compulsions, and stress management. She also draws on client-centered therapy, offering a supportive, empathic setting that emphasizes listening and collaboration to help people clarify values and goals. Additionally, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) skills may be taught to build emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and interpersonal effectiveness when those concerns arise.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Heidi will work with each person to assess needs, preferences, and goals and then blend methods that best fit the situation, checking in regularly to adjust the plan as therapy progresses.
Offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, online therapy with Heidi provides flexibility for varied schedules and communication styles. These options make it easier to attend sessions during weekday evenings and weekends, support ongoing work between sessions, and accommodate clients who prefer different ways of connecting with a licensed professional.
