Heather Sardella, LMFT, LPCC

Heather Sardella is a California-based therapist with 17 years of clinical experience supporting individuals, adolescents, young adults, and families through a range of emotional and relational challenges. She blends practical approaches to address anxiety, stress, depression, family and relationship conflicts, identity concerns, trauma and abuse, domestic violence, grief, and parenting struggles.

Holding licenses as an LMFT and an LPCC, she brings both relational and clinical perspectives to care - LMFT means Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist and LPCC means Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. Her practice draws on an eclectic mix of theories so treatment can be tailored to each person and family rather than following a single method.

Creativity is a hallmark of her work; she often integrates creative interventions to help clients access new perspectives and coping skills. She especially enjoys collaborating with adolescents, young adults, and their families to navigate transitions, attachment patterns, communication difficulties, and identity development.

Heather approaches therapy as a collaborative process, honoring each person as the expert of their own story and offering guidance while walking alongside them through difficult moments. She aims to create a supportive space where people can explore control issues, guilt and shame, loneliness, life purpose, mood and panic disorders, post-traumatic stress, self-worth, social anxiety, and women’s issues, among other concerns. She looks forward to connecting with new clients who are ready to take steps toward change.
