Aliya Heber

LCSW

Hi, I’m Aliya, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, and I’m glad you’re here. In our work together, I want you to feel like you can take a breath, be yourself, and know that you won’t be judged. My approach is warm, authentic, laid-back, and grounded. I believe therapy should feel genuine and comfortable while also giving you practical tools that can make a real difference in your everyday life.

I take a whole-person approach. Your relationships, experiences, environment, strengths, and overall well-being all matter. I use practical approaches including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) trauma therapy, and Internal Family Systems (IFS), while also being open to mindfulness, meditation, movement, nutrition, and exercise.

I am also a Certified Sex Therapist offering a supportive and nonjudgmental space to talk about relationships, sexuality, intimacy, sexual concerns, and topics that may be difficult to discuss elsewhere.

We’ll move at a pace that feels right for you. My goal is for you to feel heard, understood, respected, and safe enough to explore the parts of your life that may feel complicated or vulnerable. Ultimately, I want our work together to help you better understand yourself, build practical skills, work through difficult experiences, and create meaningful change. This is a space where you can show up as your whole self—with honesty, vulnerability, curiosity, and even a little humor along the way.
