About Heidi


As a licensed professional counselor and personal coach in Boulder since ­­2002, I specialize in helping high achievers and young adults in transition overcome obstacles to achieve their goals. By providing supportive, practical feedback, a blend of conventional and creative approaches, my clients resolve current problems and long-standing patterns to reach their fullest potential.

I had my own "quarter-life crisis" in my twenties and know from first hand experience the sense of urgency and the desire to create the "right" life which makes everything seem so overwhelming. Looking back, I can see the missteps, successes and adventures which taught me the importance of getting help at this important life juncture.

Prior to becoming a psychotherapist, I lived and worked in Beijing, China for more than a decade. I was able to gain extensive experience in international management and marketing as the Director of two different divisions of a Fortune 500 company' s China operations.

Working as an expat executive in a developing country, I know how isolating the life of a leader and manager can be. I have developed many tools to not just manage stress but to actually reduce or even eliminate the experience of stress.
With my extensive experience in both business and counseling, I enjoy working with professionals and executives in high stress jobs, as well as with entrepreneurs and leaders in the high tech, manufacturing, financial services, aerospace, health care and consulting fields.
