Heather Forbes

Therapist

LPC

Female

I am a Licensed Professional Counselor and Supervisor with an MEd in Agency Counseling from the University of Montevallo in Alabama. I have 20 years of experience working with depression, anxiety, women's issues, and chronic illness. I would love to partner with you and support you through life's challenges, help you gain knowledge in good self-care and develop positive coping skills to aid you in the future. As a counselor, I begin with a person-centered approach to build rapport, provide support and offer a safe place for clients to grow. Based on my client's needs I also utilize cognitive behavioral therapy, reality therapy, solution-focused brief therapy, mindfulness-based therapy and trauma -focused therapy. As a counselor, I want to create a safe, confidential environment for my clients to share their inner most thoughts and feelings. My goals are to help my clients work through their challenges in life, develop a strong support system, learn valuable coping skills and master self-care in order to live their best life.

How do we select providers listed on PsychHub.com?

The care options presented consist of treatment providers that we have assessed to be quality providers across a range of services for mental health, substance use, relationships, and other well-being needs. We aim to include only high quality providers and multiple viable options for those seeking care.

Do participating providers pay us?

To make our site free for consumers, providers on Psych Hub pay fees to connect with potential clients who are a fit for their services. Some also purchase Psych Hub's educational content for practitioner training and client support. These fees enable us to operate our service, including screening and updating information on each provider.

How do we determine which ones to display?

Rather than make specific provider recommendations, we present options and information so you can make an informed decision on what provider best fits your needs. Where we have multiple participating providers, we present multiple options (and where we don't, we prioritize adding more options to our site over time). We present providers whose capabilities, insurance coverage, availability and other attributes best match your stated needs. If many providers appear to equally meet your needs, we display a selection of them at random. Our decision on which participating providers to display is never impacted by the amount of fees we receive from them.

What is the relationship between Psych Hub and these providers?

The providers listed on our site are all independent entities from Psych Hub. We have a contractual relationship with each provider that governs the terms of their participation on the site, and in some cases, as mentioned above, their use of Psych Hub's educational content. There is no other affiliation between Psych Hub and the providers listed on our site.

What causes us to remove providers from our site?

We require that providers meet all licensing requirements of states where they offer services. If a provider loses their license, they are removed from our site for that state or service. We also seek feedback from users on providers they find on our site. We investigate significant negative feedback and remove providers if we conclude that to be appropriate.
