Heather Taylor-Lively AMFT & APCC

Transformation is rarely a straight line. It asks us to turn toward what is painful, to bring what is unconscious into the light, and to discover that wholeness was never lost — only waiting to be rediscovered.

With a master’s degree in counseling psychology from Pacifica Graduate Institute, my clinical foundation is rooted in Depth Psychology, Jungian theory, and the study of the unconscious dimensions of human experience. I hold an Advanced Certification in QEEG and Neurofeedback, bringing a unique integration of depth psychological insight and brain-based science to my clinical work. Before entering the field of psychotherapy, I spent a decade in the zoological field studying animal behavior and founded my own neurofeedback company — experiences that deepened my capacity to observe, to perceive what moves beneath behavior and words, and that instilled in me a profound respect for the intelligence of the nervous system, and the understanding that no organism thrives in isolation.

I work with individuals, couples, blended families, and relational systems navigating anxiety, depression, addiction, relational trauma, religious trauma, identity development, and LGBTQ+ experiences, as well as women’s experiences across the arc of life. My clinical background includes experience in rehabilitation and recovery settings.

Drawing from Depth Psychology, Psychodynamic Therapy, Family Systems, and Somatic-Informed approaches, I hold the therapeutic relationship as a primary catalyst for integration — offering a compassionate, secure space that honors each person’s unique process of becoming whole.
