Facilitator

MSW, LCSW

Heather is a Clinical Social Worker and has been working with individuals and couples in private practice and other organisations for the past 27 years. 

She specialises in treating trauma, coping with chronic illness and anxiety disorders. 

She was diagnosed with MS in 2020 and found the Overcoming MS program very shortly into her diagnosis. It has given her a tremendous amount of agency over her own health and has allowed her to manage her anxiety related to this illness.  Overall, Heather feels healthier and more connected to her body. 

Heather lives in Denver, Colorado in the U.S. and enjoys spending time with family and friends.  She loves skiing, hiking and travelling.  When not out adventuring she can be found curled up with a good book. 

Heather is married and has two young adult children and a dog.
