Heather Thorson, LCSW

Heather Thorson is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem struggles. She supports those coping with relationship difficulties, life changes, motivation problems, and LGBTQ concerns. Heather frames therapy as a partnership and focuses on practical steps people can use right away.

Heather draws on approaches that help clients notice patterns and make small, achievable changes. She uses techniques from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Solution-Focused Therapy, along with mindfulness and grounding practices. Sessions aim to build clarity, emotional balance, and everyday skills rather than only talking about problems.

Clients can expect a direct, compassionate style that centers their experience. Heather believes people hold strengths and insights that guide recovery, and she works to bring those forward in each session. The tone is collaborative and goal-oriented, with attention to what matters most to the individual.

With nine years of experience as a licensed clinician, Heather blends practical tools with reflective work. She helps people set realistic goals, test new behaviors, and notice what changes over time. Her focus includes mood disorders, guilt and shame, forgiveness, narcissism-related concerns, and women's issues.

Heather practices in Nevada and conducts sessions in English. She uses a subscription model for sessions that can be canceled at any time, and scheduling follows the therapist's availability. To get started, a short matching questionnaire is completed before arranging the first appointment.
