About Heather Bering
Known for a respectful, sensitive, and compassionate manner, she builds therapy around collaborative dialogue and individualized treatment plans. Heather tailors sessions to reflect the goals and preferences of the person in therapy, adjusting pace and techniques as progress unfolds. She also brings additional experience working with issues such as abandonment, body image, commitment and control concerns, domestic violence, family problems, jealousy, veterans and armed forces issues, sexual assault and abuse, and challenges specific to women, men, and young adults.
Heather does not work with ADHD or ADD when that is the primary concern, as this falls outside her area of focus. Her availability is during daytime hours from 9 AM to 2 PM, Monday through Thursday, and she welcomes phone sessions. She recognizes that beginning therapy can take courage and expresses pride in those who take that first step toward change.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care
Heather integrates Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to support online work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on clarifying personal values and learning practical skills to accept difficult thoughts and feelings while committing to meaningful action - it can be helpful for anxiety, stress, and life transitions. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a nonjudgmental, empathic therapeutic relationship where the therapist follows the client’s lead and supports self-directed growth - it often benefits issues involving self-esteem, relationships, and identity. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) helps identify and shift unhelpful thinking patterns and behaviors through structured strategies and practice - it is commonly used for depression, anxiety, and coping with everyday challenges.Finding the right combination of these approaches is part of the therapeutic process. Heather works collaboratively with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as progress is made.
Online sessions provide practical flexibility by offering video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule, access care from different locations within Florida, and maintain continuity of support when life circumstances change.
