Heather Roland, Student Therapist

With over two decades of experience working as a Family Support Specialist for families with preschool-aged children, I have dedicated my career to supporting children, individuals, and families through their unique journeys. Driven by this passion, I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Clinical Mental Health at Liberty University.

Over the years, I have learned the power of every individual’s unique story. In my counseling practice, I strive to create a safe, nonjudgmental, and supportive environment where I walk with my clients through the complexities of life, help them heal from past wounds, and strengthen their relationships with others and with themselves. 

Outside of my professional life, I share a long-standing marriage of 27 years with my husband, and together, we are parents to three boys, two of whom are teens still at home. We are also grandparents to two wonderful grandchildren. Our family’s journey has not been without its challenges, including difficult experiences in parenting and maintaining a marriage, which has only deepened my empathy and understanding for the families I support.

When not counseling, I enjoy gardening, spending quality time with my miniature schnauzer, and appreciating the beauty of the Pacific Northwest with my family.
