About Heather
Heather Prime is a person-centred counsellor who draws on six years of professional practice. She holds a Master of Science in Counselling and Psychotherapy and a Bachelor of Science in Psychology with a Counselling Psychology focus, and she is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Heather speaks English and works with people in the United Kingdom.
Heather uses a person-centred approach that puts the client's own experience at the heart of the work.
Background and approach
She creates a non-judgemental space where people can talk through anxiety, depression, grief, stress, and struggles with self-esteem. She also supports people facing intimacy concerns, addictions, anger, career stress, and parenting challenges. Her background includes voluntary and charity roles in Worcestershire, and she has worked in a secondary school alongside independent practice.
That range of settings means she is familiar with a wide mix of life problems, including ADHD, OCD and gender dysphoria, as well as bereavement and relationship difficulties. Heather can work in several ways, including creative activities when that suits the person. She also holds a certificate in online and telephone counselling and is practised in remote formats.
Heather continues to update her skills through training days and professional development. People who choose her can expect a collaborative relationship that focuses on what they already know about themselves. Sessions aim to help clients clarify goals, explore choices, and find steps that feel manageable in daily life.

Therapeutic approaches and online sessions that fit family life
Heather works from a person-centred perspective, which focuses on the client’s own knowledge and choices. In practice this means the therapist listens carefully, reflects what is heard, and helps the client identify steps they want to try. This approach is often used for anxiety, low mood, grief and self-esteem concerns.She also uses evidence-based techniques that target specific patterns such as obsessive or compulsive thoughts and attention differences like ADHD. These techniques help people notice unhelpful habits, develop alternative responses, and build routines that reduce distress in daily life.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Heather will talk through options with each person, consider goals and preferences, and adapt how sessions proceed over time. The aim is to find methods that feel useful and manageable for the individual.
Online sessions are offered by video call, by phone, live chat or by text-based messaging to provide flexible ways to connect. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions work well when a quieter call or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels easier. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, childcare and busy routines while keeping the focus on progress.
