About Dr. Erin Heinz
(she/her)
I am a Licensed Psychologist with a Doctoral degree in Clinical Psychology. Since 2010, I have been in private practice helping clients manage their anxiety, depression, perinatal mental health, and eating disorders.
I've worked in a number of different settings including community mental health, forensic, inpatient hospital, partial/day treatment programs, and an eating disorder treatment center.
My clients find my style open and dynamic in a welcoming, nonjudgmental environment. I'm here to give you the time and space to tell your story, find relief from your struggles and grow within the experience.

Individual Therapy with Adolescents, Young Adults and Adults
APPROACH
In session I use an interactive, Relational approach, as well as other effective therapy techniques in order to help you understand and find relief from your distress. I incorporate Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavior Therapy (CBT), Interpersonal Process Therapy (IPT), as well as mindfulness and body-oriented awareness from Sensorimotor psychotherapy.
Each treatment is tailored to your needs, your struggles and your strengths. From my experience and training when stressors become overwhelming our ability to respond in flexible, adaptable ways can be limited and we often rely on rigid thought and behavior patterns. The process of exploring difficult emotions embedded in these patterns while challenging the unhelpful thoughts that get sticky, within the comfort of the therapeutic relationship, allows for you to discover new resiliency.
I welcome those who identify as LGBTQIA+ and greet this community with acceptance and understanding.
Specialties
Perinatal Mental Health
I specialize in maternal mental health, including Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders, pregnancy grief, loss, and fertility challenges. I work with women, pregnant people and their families as they navigate this vulnerable and challenging time.
Eating Disorders
I have over 15 years of experience providing care for people struggling with body image, emotional eating and eating disorders. I often coordinate care with nutritionists and meal support specialists, medical doctors and families. If there is a question regarding the type of treatment and level of care that is most appropriate I can assess your needs and make recommendations. I support a Health At Every Size (HAES) approach and mindset, which fosters size-acceptance and an end to both weight discrimination and the cultural obsession with weight loss and thinness.
Helping Professionals
I have a particular interest and depth of experience working with people in the helping professions, whether they be other psychotherapists, those in the healing arts or those in the medical field. The needs for people who care so intensely for others are often unique and can often be minimized or overlooked.
Young Adults
Working with young/college aged adults is a great joy and has been a large part of my practice for years. This transitional time in life raises opportunities for growth in so many areas of your identity and relationships.
Clinical Supervision
I am trained in and thoroughly enjoy providing clinical supervision for pre-licensed and licensed mental health professionals.
