Heather Wilson, VT Psychologist-Master 047.0089552

Heather Wilson is a licensed psychologist based in Vermont with 16 years of experience working with children, families, and adults. She holds a graduate degree in clinical psychology and is licensed as a VT Psychologist-Master (license number 047.0089552), a designation that indicates practice at the psychologist-master level in Vermont. Over her career she has provided psychotherapy and has supervised students and early-career therapists who were working toward licensure.

She works with people facing depression, anxiety, stress, trauma and abuse, family conflicts, parenting challenges, pregnancy and postpartum concerns, relationship issues, grief, self-esteem struggles, career and workplace difficulties, and compassion fatigue. Additional focus areas include attachment and blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication and control problems, divorce and separation, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, life purpose, postpartum depression, pregnancy and childbirth, self-love, and issues common to young adults.

Rather than applying a single method for every person, she draws from multiple evidence-informed approaches. Her training includes Postpartum Support International, Mothers & Babies, Parent-Child Interaction Therapy, Emotion Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Interpersonal Therapy, Collaborative Assessment and Management of Suicidality, psychodynamic therapy, cognitive and behavioral therapy, and mindfulness. In sessions she emphasizes developing coping skills, improving communication and relationships, and supporting healing from painful or difficult experiences.

She believes mental health is supported through individualized daily practices, habits, and behaviors. Her goal is to offer a supportive space for reflecting on past experiences, addressing current problems, and exploring ways to live a happier and healthier life.
