What my clients think about me:
"Heather helped me heal my heart."
- JBK, Ireland
“When I first went to Heather, I was in a midlife mess---having just lost my big fat Execu-woman job of 12 years. I was the consistent breadwinner in my family and had a young child. Needless to say, I was in deep shock and fear...
Working with Heather was the best decision I could have made. I didn’t have to spend sessions going through ancient history. She is so intuitive that she just “gets” where you’re at. Now.
Heather is nurturing and supportive, empowering and practical all at once. She guided me to grieve, recalibrate and put my work life together in a way that feels much more authentic to who I am.
Since then, Heather has helped me navigate so many transitions in my life---from the loss of my beloved father to the rollercoaster ride of raising my teenage son. And thankfully, she has helped me strengthen my 28 year old marriage through it all.“

"There are three types of people in the world; ones who speak to our spirits, ones who speak to our souls, and the rare ones who can speak to and bridge the gap between these two worlds. Heather Tormey is one of those rare gems.
I came to her a very wounded, tormented soul and I cannot say enough about what she given me. I had never felt love my whole life until Heather showed me the way. She stood by with such patience, compassion, kindness, grace, and unconditional love. It is a unique soul that can hold the kind of healing space that Heather does. She gives the foundation and support to allow people to grow and blossom into their soul’s purpose.
I would not be who I am today without her (and quite frankly, wouldn't want to be on a planet that she was not also on). Heather, thank you for changing my life. We are so blessed to have you here and anyone that works with you will know that. Namaste."
- GH, Eugene, OR
“I have been working with Heather for many years now. She came into my life at a critical, traumatic time, and helped me heal many years of grief, regret, guilt, shame, and blame…
She has helped me to become a more fully-integrated, self-responsible human being and to truly come to a place of self-love.
Her ideas on spirituality parallel and strengthen my own and that brings me a great deal of comfort.
At this point it doesn’t feel so much that I “need” Heather, but that she is a gift to me in the form of a trusted friend and confidante.
Although I’d done many years of therapy before her which have all contributed to my healing, I feel that I’ve made the most progress in my work with her.
I look forward to sessions with her as she reminds me who I am when I sometimes forget. She allows me to unburden in ways that my closest friends cannot. And she always extends her love and compassion in the most beautiful way.
She is a bright light in this world that can sometimes seem so dark. I remain a moth seeking her flame."
- AH, Los Angeles, CA
“I was going through an incredibly difficult time, compounded by early childhood trauma. I was reluctant to seek therapy but so overwhelmed by the weight of my depression, I called Heather. It was the best decision I could have ever made.
I first met Heather when she taught yoga. She emanated a bright light was very nurturing. But it was much later when I met her as my therapist.
She's smart, incredibly intuitive, open minded, and wise. She's comforting and kind and I always left a session feeling better and more hopeful.
Heather helped me resolve one issue after the other.
She always helped me get to the next level because she had done the work herself. My life today is completely different than the one I lived prior to therapy. I'm happy, fulfilled, and at peace with myself."
- CB, Healdsburg, CA
"I wanted a safe place where I could unapologetically divulge, reveal and discover things that had or were coming up in my life. Heather was that perfect Divine interruption that came at the right moment when I was in desperate need of guidance.
Heather administers her wisdom in the most compassionate and candid ways. She gives me a loving push as we find my way together.
I look back at the woman I was when I first met Heather with the same love and compassion Heather showed me then.
I am filled with gratitude at the woman I am now and look forward to woman I will become through my work with her. She is steadfast in her work and truly cares about her clients."
- MO, London
“I have been working with Heather since 2006. What I noticed immediately was her warmth, her compassion, and her complete ability to stay fully present with me. As a seasoned mental health practitioner myself, it was very clear that she knew her stuff.
Heather met me where I was at--- which was not a great place. She helped me see that the way I thought of myself and life itself was based on deep held beliefs that did not serve me and were, in fact, not true.
Initially, I was resistant to making the changes that clearly needed to be made if I wanted to survive and thrive in this world. She did not give up on me. She allowed me to just sit with my pain and feel safe until I was ready to make needed changes.
Once I was ready to utilize her suggestions and strategies, my life began to transform. Heather became my co-pilot in my flight to emotional and spiritual health and happiness.
Her positive and encouraging attitude facilitated my healing work. Her laughter and her sense of humor helped me to not take myself so seriously.
Heather validated my feelings, helped me see my thinking errors, and gently guided me to making a decision about how I was going to step forward in my life.
And the journey continues. With Heather as my therapist I know that I will be ok no matter what happens."
- HM, San Luis Obispo, CA
“It's hard to even begin to describe how my life changed because I met Heather. I went to her at a very dark point in my life. Yet her wisdom and ability to see who I truly am - even when I couldn't myself - led me to a level of healing I never thought was possible…
Her insight, common sense and genius for seeing right into the heart of any situation have helped me navigate life with more skill, steadiness and grace. I am now more authentic, confident and happier than I've ever been, and this would not have been possible without her.
Heather is truly a force of love, wisdom and healing in the world. I pray that everyone be as blessed as I am to know her."
- TC, Woodland Hills, CA
“Heather is the definition of a safe space in which to share your heart, your soul, your deepest fears and highest hopes. Heather is a sea of compassion, a font of wisdom, and river of joy.
The great poet Rumi has written: "I should sell my tongue, and buy a thousand ears when that one steps near and begins to speak." With her clients, Heather is a thousand ears, each with an open heart and a huge embrace.
With her listening and her advice, I feel more grounded and at peace. I am so grateful that Heather came into my life.”
- EB, Los Angeles, CA
“Heather creates a space where I feel completely safe and am able to share any aspect of my life without judgment. She has taught me how to love, take care of and honor myself.
Her sessions fill me with a deep connection to spirit. Working with Heather has helped me become the strong, confident and self-aware woman I am today. I look forward to continuing my work with her throughout many life events."
- SR, Los Angeles, CA
“Heather has been my mentor and guide for over 8 years now. She is an invaluable source of love and support in my life and someone I can talk to about absolutely anything without fear of being judged or rejected.
…
Heather has helped me navigate some very complicated decision-making processes in my life and gain much more personal power. With love and kindness, Heather has gently but persistently nudged me towards self-growth and expansion. While not always easy it has been incredibly worthwhile, particularly in the area of my marriage. Heather is a steadfast ally and a loyal, compassionate source of wisdom. I can't recommend her highly enough."
- DK, Los Angeles, CA
"Time spent with Heather has been one of the greatest gifts of my life. She is not only a generous and empathetic listener, counselor, and inspiration, but one of the most intuitive, joyful, and compassionate teachers I have ever encountered.
I began working with her at a time in my life when I did not have much awareness of how deeply my inner world could affect my outer life conditions. Over ten years, my work with Heather has inspired me to be a more brave and loving woman at every step. And empowered me to deepen my trust my own wisdom and process, and to then trust the support that comes when I do. This is one of the greatest gifts I think any person can receive, and I am thankful for and honor Heather's commitment to helping so many people find this within themselves.
Whenever I think something is too hard, or too much, Heather helps to remind me how powerful I am and how much wisdom there is to be gained by just trusting in your journey. She also makes me laugh and smile and breathe. She is, in a word, Wonderful."
- JB, San Francisco, CA
"For many years Heather has been taking me on a journey through my shattered soul and helping me find my way back to “me.” When I first met her, I was physically, emotionally and spiritually drained of any hope that my life was going to get any better than it was.
A friend of mine referred me to Heather and I decided to try one last time. If she can’t help me, there is nothing more I can do.
Thank God I made that appointment. Through our work together, my life is full of joy, happiness and a love of life I didn’t know existed!!!
Thank you Heather for all of your love and guidance!"
- MK, Los Angeles, CA
"My journey with Heather began in August of 2004. Just going through a divorce, I came to Los Angeles to do the Forrest Yoga teacher training. One of the criteria for the program was to find a therapist to support you through the process as issues may arise. They highly suggested 4 therapists in the LA area. Heather was the only one I connected to.
When I met her I knew she was “the one.” Something deep within me came alive, I now know looking back it was my spirit perking up and letting me know she was the one.
Heather is highly qualified in family integration and spiritual work that assists you in bringing your soul forth and your heart into alignment with its life purpose. I am fully confident that Heather can help anyone--- male, female, young or old, in finding the balance and harmony when life is out of sorts and you feel there is no hope. She helps bring forth the power that all of us have within, to create the life we were meant to create."
