About Heather
Heather Hundtoft is a Montana LCSW with seven years of clinical experience working with adults. She helps people who are coping with stress, anxiety, addictions, family issues, anger, and problems with self-esteem. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are not accepted.
She focuses on practical changes that make day-to-day life easier. That can look like improving communication, addressing codependent patterns, or working through family-of-origin hurts. Heather also supports people facing body image and eating concerns, fertility questions, and struggles linked to drug or alcohol use.
Her work often attends to guilt, shame, and social anxiety so clients can have steadier relationships. She offers strategies for anger and impulse control and help navigating workplace stress. People who are caregiving for others can also bring the exhaustion and role strain that comes with that responsibility.
Heather names LGBTQ+ affirmation as an important part of her practice and aims to make therapy accessible and respectful for those clients. She also has experience supporting recovery after domestic violence and helping people untangle recurring family problems.
In sessions she prefers a collaborative style that balances direct conversation with concrete skills. The focus is on clear steps and coping tools people can try between meetings.

How sessions work
How her approaches translate to online work
Heather uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to address common concerns. One approach focuses on building coping skills and practical strategies to reduce anxiety and manage stress; sessions teach specific exercises and behavioral steps people can practice between meetings. Another approach attends to relationship patterns and communication, helping clients identify recurring family-of-origin dynamics and try different ways of speaking and setting boundaries.Finding the best therapeutic approach is part of the process. Heather collaborates with each person to choose which methods to use based on goals, current challenges, and what feels like a good fit. She adjusts strategies over time so the work matches changing needs.
The practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions into a busy routine and keeping appointments without travel. Online sessions can make short check-ins easier and can be scheduled around work or caregiving responsibilities.
