About me

“Therapy is a highly personal and unique process and I strive to meet you where you are in your life with a genuine and non-judgmental approach. We will work together to collaboratively identify where you feel stuck, to explore your values and what brings your life meaning, and to gain a deeper understanding of yourself both individually and in relation to others. We will also seek to increase your sense of self, mindfulness, and self-compassion in the service of pursuing a life that brings you authenticity and purpose. My approach integrates and tailors evidence-based therapies such as DBT, ACT, CPT, EFT for couples, and others with a foundation in psychodynamic and attachment theory. My primary clinical interests are working with adults with complex trauma, PTSD, Functional Neurological Disorder, and personality, mood, and anxiety disorders. I welcome all races, all ethnicities, all genders, all sexual orientations, all relationship structures, all religions, all countries of origin, and all abilities.”

In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Heinemeyer is engaged in supervision, mentorship, and professional development for graduate students in the PGSP-Stanford PsyD Consortium. She currently serves as the VA Mental Health Clinic (MHC) Practicum Co-Director and as a Clinical Supervisor for psychology doctoral and post-doctoral trainees at the VA Palo Alto Health Care System MHC.
