HEATHER LEGUILLOUX | THERAPIST & MENTAL HEALTH BLOGGER
|Having a natural interest in people coupled with a curiosity about behaviour and life brought me to where I am today. Creating this website has helped me to share my knowledge from my experience working in the mental health field for over a decade.
Through my informative blog posts and practical mental health resources, I help my readers understand more about themselves, identify their concerns, and provide tools to living a healthier and more productive life. As a therapist, mental health blogger & advocate for health and wellness, I am here to help you through some of the most difficult moments in your life and to walk alongside you as you work towards living a happier and more fulfilled life. My goal is to work towards increasing my readers knowledge and understanding about mental health issues through informative blog posts on a range of topics including anxiety and depression. I also recommend carefully selected digital mental health resources to help individuals cope with anxiety and find their motivation.

Core Values
Want to get to know me even better? Scroll down to learn about my core values; a set of values and beliefs that help to guide me in my every day life to make decisions, act with integrity towards myself and others, and helps to shape my present and future.
Authenticity
I believe that we are all unique beings and, although we may have similarities, we each have a special trademark on this planet. As such, I strive to be true to myself and to encourage others around me embrace their own core values.
Compassion
I have always had an innate concern for others and an ability to sense others emotional distress or state of being. This has led me to choose a profession in the helping field in order to gain skills in being able to communicate my desire to support another individual.
Empathy
I strongly believe that, as a therapist, being allowed to step inside another persons perspective in order to start to understand their concerns is an essential role in the therapeutic process and can be catalyst for the change process to begin. I feel that this core value also translates within my daily life and remains inherent in my communication and connection with others.
Self-Awareness
I actively participate in my own personal therapy as well as individual and peer-supervision in order to focus on personal growth and maintain my emotional and psychological well-being. I feel it is important to spend time on my own internal needs in order to be fully present and focused in a therapeutic setting.
Experience
Having traveled to several continents and lived overseas for a number of years, I have a sense of desire to explore and experience other cultures, learn new traditions and meet people from a different walk of life from my own. I feel gaining worldly experience helps me to grow as a person and opens my mind to new possibilities.
Enjoyment
Celebrating the moments, however big or small, that make us happy can boost our self-esteem and well-being, and create stronger connections with others. For me, those moments of true enjoyment come from having a really good cup of coffee, finally making it to the summit of a hike, or having a chat with a friend filled with laughter and smiles.
