About Heidi
Heidi McCarty offers a straightforward, compassionate approach for people facing stress, anxiety, relationship concerns, trauma, self-esteem struggles, and depression. She is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Wyoming with three years of clinical experience. Heidi aims to create a calm space where people can talk honestly and begin to make changes.
Heidi focuses on everyday steps that lead toward feeling more grounded and connected. She listens for what matters most and helps people set small, doable goals.
How Heidi works
Conversations tend to be practical and warm, with room for hard feelings and realistic plans for change. Her work draws on several therapy approaches, including acceptance and commitment ideas, cognitive behavioral tools, emotionally focused methods, and EMDR for trauma-related concerns. She blends those methods to match each person’s situation rather than following a single script.
Heidi pays particular attention to attachment and abandonment issues, communication and commitment struggles, body image, and patterns of control or avoidance. She also helps people who feel isolated, stuck in low mood, or overwhelmed by obsessions or compulsions. People meet Heidi by scheduling sessions online through her practice.
She encourages taking small first steps and supports clients as they try new ways of coping and relating. Her aim is to help people find more ease, clearer direction, and a greater sense of wellbeing.

How her approaches work online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on what matters most to them. It teaches practical ways to act toward valued goals even when emotions are hard. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns and offers concrete strategies to change them, which can help with anxiety, mood, and unwanted habits. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) targets distress linked to past traumatic memories by using bilateral stimulation alongside guided recall to reduce emotional intensity.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will listen to each person's goals and try different methods to see what fits best. Together they will adapt techniques over time so the work stays useful and relevant to current challenges.
Online therapy with Heidi uses video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to make care more flexible. Video allows face-to-face conversation when visual cues help. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit a break at work. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins and ongoing support between sessions. These options help people fit therapy into busy or unpredictable schedules while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional growth.
