About Heidi
Heidi McCarty is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming with three years of clinical experience. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, and depression. She also addresses related issues such as attachment and abandonment, communication problems, and obsessive-compulsive patterns.
Heidi uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy as one of her primary approaches. She also draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Client-Centered Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing when these fit a person's needs. In sessions she focuses on emotions and interaction patterns that are often hard to name.
Her work often includes looking at how past hurts and attachment patterns shape present relationships and choices. She helps people notice difficult feelings and patterns, then practice different ways of responding. Practical skills and short exercises may be used alongside deeper emotional work.
Heidi offers a straightforward, conversational approach. She explains techniques and why they might help. Sessions typically involve talking through current struggles, identifying patterns, and trying small changes to test new ways of relating.
People who are considering therapy are encouraged to use the site match process to schedule a first session and describe their main concerns. That first appointment is used to clarify goals and decide which approaches to prioritize going forward.
Approaches used in remote sessions
Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on identifying and working with core emotions and interaction patterns that keep people stuck. It can help when attachment worries or repeated relationship reactions feel overwhelming.Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) combines acceptance of difficult thoughts with action based on personal values. It is often used for anxiety, stress, and motivation by helping people notice thoughts without getting led by them.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can be used to process traumatic memories and reduce their hold on daily life. It is sometimes offered remotely when clinically appropriate and agreed on with the client.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review your concerns and preferences, then suggest which methods to try first. That decision is made collaboratively and can change as therapy progresses.
If you are considering remote sessions, confirm the current session options before booking. The sign-up process on the site guides you through a short matching questionnaire and scheduling. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow a shorter check-in when needed, and remove travel time so people can keep appointments around work or family commitments.
