Heidi Dahmes
Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker
I believe that God is the ultimate healer and heart-changer, and that many difficulties we experience as humans come down to our beliefs about God and ourselves. I love to help people discover what they’re believing about God and themselves in relation to their life experiences and walk with them to learn the truth about who God is, and who we are, and ultimately come to a place of healing. I believe that all people have value and worth because we are made in the image of God, and strive to create a safe and judgement-free space for my clients to feel comfortable sharing and experiencing whatever they need to during our time together.
