Heidi’s vision to improve access to mental health therapy led to her developing an Online Mental Health Private Practice in 2016, www.heidisturgeon.com, that provides secure and confidential therapy to clients in the comfort of their home, office or location of their choice. In 2019 her practice expanded to all Atlantic Canada becoming the first Online Mental Health Practice in Atlantic Canada. In addition to her Online Practice Heidi continues to see clients in Halifax.
When not working with clients or on her Private Practice Heidi can be found on or near the water, reading or appreciating a good cup of coffee.
