About me

I am a license practicing counselor in the commonwealth of Virginia with 7 years of experience working as a counselor and therapist. I have worked with clients with a wide range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, parenting problems, career challenges, OCD and ADHD. I also helped many people who have experienced physical trauma or emotional abuse.

My counseling style is engaging with the intent to partner with you to explore and achieve your goals. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. My approach combines cognitive-behavioral, humanistic, mindfulness and solution focused counseling. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

It takes courage to seek for a more fulfilling and happier life and to take the first steps towards a change. If you are ready to take that step I am here to support and empower you.

I look forward to working with you!

Reviews

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Joseph Heeter. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with Regain might be different.

He’s amazing and has done such a great job listening. His approach is GREAT!

He’s not afraid to say the hard things. It feels good to have someone finally be straight with me, rather than tip toe around my feelings. His approach to therapy is a catalyst for change.

I am really happy on our sessions so far, I usually feel extremely anxious before but after speaking I have a lot more confidence

Work with me!
