I’m Heather Gesino, LCSW
I believe the more we know ourselves, the better equiped we are at handling life's challenges.
I truly thrive in conversations that focus on human experiences and building trusting relationships. Clients feel like I get them because it allows me to understand the deeper reasons why specific struggles and challenges are present.
I became a therapist in Arlington Tx because I have always felt a calling to serve and support others in their transformation.
