Tamazin Heher (She/Her)

My Background

I have been to honored work with hundreds of clients since receiving my MSW in 1998 and subsequently my LCSW. I am not only well versed in evidence based treatments such as EMDR and CBT, but I also understand the importance of how to build on the unique strengths that each individual already has. Over the course of my education and career I have worked with people from diverse backgrounds and experiences within a range of settings including community agencies, group homes, psychiatric hospitals, schools, and private practice. While we may have different experiences and challenges, we all share a desire for connection, meaning and happiness. ​ Langley Porter Psychiatric Institute, UCSF East Bay Agency for Children, Berkeley, CA Hahnemann University Hospital, Behavioral Health, Pennsylvania San Mateo Human Service Agency, San Mateo CA George Hall Elementary School, San Mateo CA Seneca Center for Children & Families, San Francisco, CA Private practice, Lake Oswego

My Values as a Therapist

I believe that you are the expert on you. My job is to support you in reconnecting with the inner wisdom that already exists. I value compassion, curiosity, and collaboration, and I see therapy as a partnership where your strengths guide the process. I believe healing happens in a safe, nonjudgmental space where all parts of you are welcome. My role is not to “fix” you, but to walk alongside you, helping you discover tools, perspectives, and practices that support lasting growth and meaningful change.
