About me

I am licensed in Texas with 30 years of experience as an educator/school counselor and 3 years of professional work experience in private practice. As a school counselor, I worked at the high school level for 15 years, only just recently moving to the middle school for the last two years. During COVID, one of my co-workers opened up her private practice and I have been seeing children, teens and adults for the last three years. I LOVE it! I have experience in helping clients with stress and anxiety, relationship issues, & parenting issues. I also have experience working with coping with life changes. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs. Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling and happier life takes courage. I am here to support you in that process.

Reviews

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

She has been educated, firm and gentle all in one. As a solo mom of 3 teens it's a lot. She brings me back to earth and provides a calming reminder of good communication and techniques to guide through with minimum distress.

I'm grateful for her support with the anxiety, depression, guilt, frustration and all the other parenting things that run your mind. Thank you.

Heather has been extremely crucial in my stress management during some MAJOR life changes I have gone through. Just having her here as a neutral party that provides resources and thought paths I hadn't thought of has been extremely helpful.

She's super helpful in trying to understand my childhood trauma, and helping me fix my current issues from my childhood

Written on Dec 26, 2022 after therapy with Heather for 2 weeks on issues concerning relationship issues

After her first message to me my mind was set free of some of the pain, guilt and regret I had regarding a failed relationship. She definitely put some perspective on my feelings and I cannot thank her enough as we delve deeper into understanding my relationship goals. Recommend her with zero hesitation.
