Heather Kong, LCSW
Sometimes we feel stuck. We take steps forward, only to find ourselves falling back into old patterns and familiar responses. We don’t want to repeat them, but somehow, they persist. Whatever the source of the struggle, we’ll work together to explore where these responses come from, why they continue, and what’s needed to make different choices moving forward.
Healing begins with understanding how the past still lives in the present. I primarily use EMDR Psychotherapy to uncover the experiences that have shaped your life. Together, we’ll explore the parts of you that feel stuck, scared, or alone. No one grows up untouched by pain—but it is possible to move forward on a different path.
You are your greatest and most valuable resource. Everything you need to create change is already within you. It’s not easy, but you don’t have to do it alone. I’ll be with you every step of the way, honored to walk alongside you as you reconnect with your capacity for healing, growth, and transformation. Let’s do this together.
