Cheryl Heinla, MA, LMFT, Neighbor

I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a private practice in Pleasant Hill. I graduated with a Masters in Counseling Psychology from JFK University right here in Pleasant Hill! Aside from private practice, my experience includes work with general counseling centers, family and adolescent focused center, hospice grief and loss, school-based with middle and high school adolescents, and as a liaison for children's counseling and emergency psychiatric care with Contra Costa County. I've worked with multi-cultural clients, and varying levels of socioeconomic populations. My key strengths and interest are with adolescents and families, grief and loss, and couples. Prior, I spent most of my working life in business and corporate related positions. I made a very conscious decision a few years back that I wanted to work on a deeper level with people; and thoroughly enjoy this work. My blogs will primarily include topics related to grief, loss, families, adolescents and relationships (with self and others).
