About Heather
Heather McClure Mann is a licensed clinical social worker with 27 years of practice in Texas. She brings steady, experienced guidance for people facing stress, anxiety, loss, or big life changes. Her style mixes warmth with clear, practical direction so clients can make steady progress.
Heather draws on approaches that focus on thoughts, feelings, and connection to help people shift unhelpful patterns. Sessions blend talk and action so insight turns into real steps.
How Heather works
The work often starts by identifying limiting beliefs and small changes that feel manageable. She pays attention to how attachment and past relationships shape current worries and relationship patterns. That helps when people struggle with commitment, communication problems, or feeling abandoned.
Heather also addresses caregiving strain, compassion fatigue, and first responder issues with focused support. For mood and behavior concerns, Heather uses tools from cognitive behavioral and dialectical behavior therapy to teach skills for stress, anxiety, sleep, eating, and managing impulses. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques help clarify values and build a life that feels meaningful despite hard feelings.
Her background includes inpatient and outpatient settings, plus individual and group work over many years. People who want a mix of emotional understanding and concrete strategies tend to do well in her sessions. Heather helps clients move from insight to practical steps that improve daily life.

Online support options
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online work
Heather often uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice painful thoughts without getting stuck in them and to build a life connected to personal values. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, depression, and when struggling with motivation.She also draws on Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships affect current patterns. That work can clarify why someone repeats certain relationship behaviors and guide new ways of relating that feel safer and more satisfying.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Heather will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time based on progress and feedback so therapy stays useful and relevant.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video allows face-to-face interaction for deeper conversation, phone can work when bandwidth is limited, and chat or messaging supports brief check-ins or ongoing coaching between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life and to keep work moving forward across different settings.
