Heidi VelaMarriage & Family Therapist, LCMFT (she, her)

About

Hi, I’m Heidi. I am a clinical marriage and family therapist that has been providing therapy to the Manhattan area for over 10 years. As a therapist I am firmly rooted in attachment and systems theories. These theories guide me in individual, couple, and family sessions with my clients. I have a real passion for family therapy and often feel energized by working with multiple family members at once. I’m open to working with a wide range of mental health challenges and am willing to explore different approaches. My goal is to work collaboratively with you to find what works best for you. I am trained as a Marriage and Family Therapist. However, I have gained additional training to help people struggling with attachment and trauma. These treatment types include play therapy, TF-CBT, Theraplay, and EMDR.
