Heather Baker is a licensed professional counselor practicing in Tennessee with six years of clinical experience. She holds a Master’s degree in Mental Health Counseling and maintains a Tennessee counseling license, listed as TN LPC 4828.
She has worked with a broad range of concerns including trauma, depression, anxiety, relationship conflicts, low self-esteem, military-related issues, parenting skills, health-related issues, grief, and communication challenges. Her practice also addresses stress, LGBT concerns, family conflicts, intimacy-related issues, anger management, bipolar disorder, coping with life changes, and ADHD.
Heather uses a variety of evidence-informed approaches tailored to each person’s needs, drawing on Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), EMDR, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Family Systems Therapy, and trauma-focused interventions. She emphasizes skill practice and insight into how symptoms develop, combining practical tools with clinical perspective.
Clients can expect a warm, compassionate approach and honest clinical feedback as treatment is adapted to the individual. Heather views clients as the experts in their own lives and offers guidance and tools to help them overcome challenges. Coming from a diverse ethnic background, she provides non-judgmental care and is open to clients’ cultural and spiritual or religious views.
Heather seeks to support people on a path toward hope and healing and aims to help them feel less alone in that process.
People often wonder whether online therapy can really help. For many common concerns - including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, and navigating life changes - online therapy has been found to be comparable in effectiveness to traditional in-person sessions.
One of the main benefits is convenience and flexibility. Individuals can connect with licensed professionals in the format that fits their life best - video sessions, phone calls, live chat, or in-app messaging. This flexibility makes it easier to add therapy into a busy schedule or to continue care when circumstances change.
Licensed therapists deliver services remotely, and if someone finds they would prefer a different clinician, switching to another therapist is an option. Online therapy can be a practical, effective way to access professional support for common mental health and relationship concerns.
