Heather Locklear Strickland

I am a North Carolina native who has dedicated my life to raising awareness for mental health/substance use issues and reducing the stigma around accessing treatment for both. For the past ten years, I have worked in a variety of community mental health agencies, serving the needs of individuals from all walks of life. My professional counseling experience includes individual and group counseling in a community mental health agency and a local Detention Center as well as crisis intervention in a community setting. I specialize in depressive & anxiety disorders as well as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and stress reactions. I am duly licensed as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor Supervisor and a Licensed Clinical Addiction Specialist. I utilize a variety of therapeutic approaches and tailor my approach to each clients needs. I offer specialized services such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) & Prime for Life to help clients achieve their goals. I pride myself on my down to earth and straight forward style which allows me to connect with my clients in a genuine way. This connection has helped hundreds of clients learn new skills and see real change in their lives. Healing takes time, & asking for help is a courageous step.
