Heather Malin

Associate Marriage and Family Therapist

I'm here to walk alongside you as you explore what's keeping you stuck and connect with your strengths to create a meaningful life. I see therapy as a unique relationship where you can understand yourself more deeply, uncover the resources that already exist within you, and live more fully as the person you want to be.


My Areas of Focus

Life Transitions & Purpose Development I especially enjoy working with teens and adults navigating significant life changes. These phases are full of potential for growth but can also bring anxiety, loss, loneliness, and disconnection from self. Drawing on my experience in purpose development, I support clients in connecting with what matters most and clearing obstacles to a values-driven life. We can customize an approach that might include deep self-discovery, practical coping strategies, or developing your capacity for meaningful relationships.


Relationship Dynamics I work with individuals, couples, and families navigating relationship conflict. As we build a trusting therapeutic relationship, we’ll identify unhelpful communication patterns and provide corrective emotional experiences to overcome difficulties stemming from early attachment relationships. Through this process, you'll develop more effective and authentic ways of connecting with the important people in your life.


Parenting Support As a parent myself and with over 15 years of experience as a developmental psychologist, I offer parent coaching and family therapy to help build stronger, more connected relationships. I support parents navigating contemporary parenting challenges and can integrate individual and family therapy to promote your child's emotional health and development.


My Therapeutic Approach

My approach is warm, relational, and deeply respectful of your personal journey. I provide a safe space where you can explore how past experiences and patterns may be showing up in your present life. Drawing from humanistic and psychodynamic approaches, I integrate evidence-based tools from modalities like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support growth in psychological flexibility, self-compassion, and values-based living.


Whether you're drawn to deep self-exploration or practical strategies, we'll work together to create a therapeutic process that fits your goals and helps you move toward the life you want to live.


I am supervised by Kent Campbell, LMFT.
