01About Heidi
Heidi Herrick-Lynn is a Licensed Professional Counselor who brings 27 years of clinical experience to her practice in New Jersey. She uses a client-centered approach and practical therapies to help people manage stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship concerns. Heidi aims to make sessions straightforward and useful so families and individuals can notice small changes quickly.
She often draws from cognitive behavioral therapy to help people identify unhelpful thoughts and try new behaviors.
Background and approach
Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when emotions feel overwhelming, giving concrete tools for coping and self-soothing. Motivational interviewing supports people who want to make changes but feel stuck or unsure where to start. Her background includes long-term work in clinical settings across state lines, giving her broad experience with grief, trauma and abuse, and intimacy-related issues.
Heidi also supports people facing sleep problems, parenting stress, and life transitions. She has additional focus on obsessions and compulsions as well as polyamory and non-monogamous relationship concerns. Sessions are offered in English and scheduled to fit weekday evenings and weekends.
Heidi frames therapy as a collaborative effort and looks for practical steps clients can take between meetings. Her style is straightforward, patient, and focused on helping people regain a sense of control. To begin, she asks people to share what matters most to them and builds a plan that matches their goals and pace.

04Online support
Therapeutic approaches adapted for online care
Heidi commonly uses client-centered therapy, which focuses on listening closely and shaping sessions around what the person says matters most. This approach helps people feel heard and guides the pace of work based on individual needs. She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy, a hands-on method that looks at thoughts and behaviors and teaches practical exercises to reduce anxiety or improve mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Heidi collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their goals, needs, and comfort with different activities. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as progress is made so the plan stays useful and realistic.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging, which makes it easier to fit therapy into a busy life. Video is useful for full sessions where interaction and visual cues help. Phone calls can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Messaging and live chat let people check in between sessions, do brief skill practice, or share updates without scheduling a full appointment.
