About Heather

Heather McClure Mann is a licensed clinical social worker with 27 years of practice. She has worked in both inpatient and outpatient settings and offers warm, direct guidance to people facing stress, anxiety, grief, addiction, and life transitions. Heather aims to help clients build confidence and clearer responses to problems rather than reacting out of fear.

Her style mixes reflection with practical steps. Sessions focus on spotting limiting beliefs, learning new coping skills, and moving from insight to action.

Background and approach

She uses evidence-based tools to help people strengthen emotional resilience and everyday functioning. Heather draws on therapies such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. She also uses attachment-focused and client-centered methods when helpful.

That blend supports work on things like self-esteem, relationship patterns, caregiving stress, and trauma recovery. People can expect conversations that are compassionate and straightforward. Heather listens closely and offers specific strategies to try between sessions.

The approach is collaborative and paced to the person's needs. Practicing in Texas, she holds a Licensed Clinical Social Worker credential, TX LCSW 30295. Heather offers online session options including video, phone, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different schedules and preferences.

Therapeutic approaches and how they translate online

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice unhelpful thoughts without getting stuck in them and clarify what matters most, so they can take actions that match their values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on spotting and changing patterns of thinking and behavior that keep problems going, and it is useful for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at early relationship patterns and how they affect current responses, which can help with intimacy, abandonment issues, and communication problems.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Heather approaches therapy as a collaborative process and will help you decide which methods fit your goals and preferences. She blends techniques when needed and checks in regularly to make sure the plan feels useful.

Online therapy offers flexibility that can make consistent work easier. Video calls allow face-to-face connection, phone sessions remove travel time, and live chat or text-based messaging can support brief check-ins and skills practice between sessions. These options help people access therapy from home or during busy schedules while keeping the focus on practical skills and steady progress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Attachment-Based Therapy

Looks at how early bonds shaped what you expect from closeness, and how that plays out now with a partner, a parent, or your own children.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.
