Heather Kane, LCSW, SSWC
Owner & Clinician
I specialize in working with children experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, emotional regulation challenges, and difficulty coping with life's challenges. With more than ten years of experience supporting children in schools, homes, and community settings, I bring a deep understanding of educational systems, behavioral health services, and family supports. I also enjoy collaborating with schools and advocating for children's needs so families feel supported beyond the therapy room.
My approach is warm, playful, and relationship-centered. I create a space where children can express themselves freely through conversation, play, art, and creative activities—without pressure to "get it right." Drawing from evidence-based therapies alongside developmentally appropriate, creative interventions, I help children make sense of their feelings, strengthen coping skills, build resilience, and reconnect with their natural sense of wonder.
My goal is for every child I work with to feel seen, safe, and empowered to embrace their unique way of being in the world.
