About Heather

Heather Dominguez is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Alaska with 26 years of clinical experience. She combines formal training and long-term field work to support individuals, couples, and families facing stress, trauma, addiction, grief, and a wide range of life transitions. Trained with a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology (Blue Mountain College, 1993) and a Master of Arts in Marriage and Family Counseling (Southwestern, 1997), she also holds certification in EMDR, a trauma-focused therapy approach. Heather is proficient in Spanish and brings experience across vocational counseling, crisis intervention, chemical dependency, spiritual concerns, and family reunification efforts.

Heather relocated to Alaska in 2013 and has extensive regional experience, including work on the Kenai Peninsula and as an itinerant therapist in the North West Arctic. During that time she provided crisis counseling for first responders and for families coping with sudden losses. Earlier in her Alaskan practice she worked as a Parenting with Love and Limits therapist, helping families rebuild and restore connection.

Known for a compassionate, nonjudgmental style, Heather respects the role faith can play for some clients while not imposing her beliefs on others. She values collaboration and courage, and she focuses on helping people find balance, strengthen relationships, and develop practical coping strategies to move forward.

Approaches for Healing and Growth in Remote Care

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify their values and take committed action even when difficult thoughts and feelings are present. It is useful for stress, anxiety, and life transitions where learning to make room for emotions supports forward movement. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) focuses on identifying unhelpful thinking patterns and testing new behaviors to reduce symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and problems with sleep or eating. EMDR is a trauma-focused method that addresses distressing memories and their lingering emotional impact; it is often used with people who have experienced abuse, accidents, or other forms of trauma.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic work. Heather collaborates with each person to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan as therapy progresses so it remains responsive and practical.

Online therapy offers flexibility and accessibility by allowing appointments by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. These options make it easier to fit sessions into busy schedules, to maintain continuity across geographic moves, and to access licensed professionals from different locations while working toward meaningful change.
