Heather Frazier , LCMHC

Heather Frazier is a North Carolina licensed clinician with seven years of professional experience supporting people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship concerns, depression, bipolar challenges, parenting and family issues, and major life transitions. She holds a BA in psychology from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and a master's degree in clinical counseling from Liberty University. Heather is licensed in North Carolina as an LCMHC - Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor - and also has training as a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist Associate.

Her approach to care is intentionally eclectic, drawing on evidence-based techniques such as acceptance and commitment therapy, cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, and client-centered methods. Heather uses motivational interviewing skills and tailored strategies to create plans that fit each person's unique needs and goals. She has worked across settings including hospitals, telephone-based support, outpatient clinics, and virtual sessions, giving her experience with varied formats and concerns.

Outside of her professional life Heather is a parent and caregiver - she has three children, a step-daughter, a grandson, and three companion animals - and enjoys spending time with family and exploring new learning experiences. Her practice focuses on helping people regain balance, rebuild coping skills, and move toward the values and relationships that matter most to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Heather blends Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into online work. ACT helps people clarify personal values and build practical habits that move them toward a meaningful life, which can be useful for stress, life changes, and low motivation. CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them through behavior change, making it effective for anxiety, depression, and many day-to-day coping challenges.

She also integrates elements of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) when clients need skills for emotion regulation, distress tolerance, and improving interpersonal effectiveness. Selection of approaches is collaborative - the therapist and client explore goals, preferences, and responses to different techniques to determine the best fit over time.

Online therapy with Heather is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to enhance flexibility and accessibility. These options make it easier to fit care into busy schedules, maintain continuity during life transitions, and access licensed professionals from home or another convenient location.
