Heather Hudson, LISW

Heather Hudson approaches therapy with a commitment to forming a collaborative relationship and helping people move toward their goals. She began clinical work in Los Angeles and pursued degrees in Psychology and Social Work while serving as a therapist for children. After relocating to San Diego she expanded her practice to support clients of all ages and worked as a school social worker while raising a growing family.

Her interest in this work grew from a deep care for children and for adults who carry childhood experiences with them. Hudson values offering a steady, listening presence so that clients feel seen and supported. She customizes each treatment plan to match an individual’s needs and objectives, drawing on a strengths-based, solution-focused framework and treating the client as the expert in their own progress.

In clinical practice she integrates research-informed techniques, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and mindfulness practices, to help clients develop practical skills for coping and change. Hudson holds the LISW credential - Licensed Independent Social Worker - reflecting advanced licensure in social work and professional training in clinical practice.
