About Heidi
Heidi McCarty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Wyoming who helps people facing anxiety, stress, relationship strain, trauma, and low self-esteem. She aims to make beginning therapy straightforward and down-to-earth for worried parents and busy adults. Heidi emphasizes a calm, nonjudgmental presence so people can talk about hard things without worry.
She uses practical, evidence-informed approaches to help people notice what matters and take steps toward it. Sessions focus on clear goals, real-life tools, and small experiments to test new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Heidi helps people break large problems into manageable steps so progress feels possible. Her background includes three years of professional experience working with mood concerns, obsessive-compulsive patterns, attachment struggles, and questions about life purpose. She brings experience supporting people who have faced trauma and abuse and assists with rebuilding a sense of safety and control.
Heidi draws from a few different therapies to match each person's needs, including methods that focus on thoughts and behaviors and those that target emotions and relational patterns. She also uses EMDR for trauma-focused work when appropriate. The work is collaborative - clients and therapist choose what fits best.
Sessions are offered in English and are provided via video, phone, live chat, or text messaging. People start by completing a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first appointment.
Approaches that translate to online care
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts and reconnect with their values. It uses simple exercises and real-life practice to build a more meaningful daily routine. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying patterns in thoughts and behaviors and testing new ways of responding to reduce anxiety and low mood. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a trauma-focused method that helps process distressing memories; it can be adapted for use during video or phone sessions when appropriate.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Heidi treats therapy as a team effort and will discuss what methods may fit a person's goals, symptoms, and comfort level. Together they choose which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text messaging. Video lets people use visual cues for emotional and relational work, while phone is useful when bandwidth or camera use is limited. Live chat and text messaging can support quick check-ins, brief skill practice, or ongoing between-session work. These options make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives and to continue care when in-person meetings are not convenient.
