Psychotherapy Practice

Weekly psychotherapy provides an avenue for people to cope in difficult times; making minor or major life changes as needed. Individuals may feel anxious, depressed, experience panic attacks or post traumatic stress reactions. They may have chronic pain and illness or a myriad of issues i.e.,interpersonal, work-related, family, financial or cultural.

Your Mind Is A Muscle: Fitness Consultation

Several years ago Dr. Heith decided to combine her education and experience as a psychotherapist with that of her twelve years spent managing corporate and commercial fitness centers. She also worked as an exercise specialist, instructor and personal trainer. As a fitness consultant, Dr. Heith addresses psychological issues and concerns that gym managers, staff, instructors and trainers may have about a member or client. Issues such as depressed mood, anxiety, panic attacks, history of sexual abuse, self-destructive behaviors (smoking,drinking to excess, over-eating, under-eating) poor self-image or revealing deeply personal information during work-out sessions.

Fitness Counseling for Individuals {new}

Dr. Heith has now expanded "Your Mind Is A Muscle" to include fitness counseling for individuals who want to lose weight, get fit and maintain a fit life-style.


	Oprah once said "I can't believe I'm still talking about my weight!"
	Dr. Heith says "I'm not at all surprised that she's still talking about her weight!"

If joining a gym or in her case having one in your home or hiring a personal trainer or in her case having one of your own, making healthier food choices or in her case having a personal chef, if being knowledgable about health and wellness (Oprah is certainly knowledgable). If this was all that a person needed to get fit and maintain a fit-lifestlye, then why aren't we all non-smoking, healthy-eating, active-living people? Because the body can't make long-lasting changes without the mind's full participation. The mind can't fully participate unless it understands the body.


	Question: How do you know when this is happening to you?
	Answer: When you find yourself right back where you started from over and over again.


	Question: What will it take to be fit for life?
	Answer: Fitness Counseling with an expert like Dr. Heith who is uniquely qualified to address both mind and body phenomenon essential for long-lasting change.
