About Heather

In just 2 and 1/2 years, Heather has built a strong foundation in the addiction recovery field, starting out as a Behavioral Health Technician at Southeast Detox in February, 2022. 

Through her own recovery and hands-on experience, Heather has developed a deep understanding of the complexities of addiction and the importance of providing compassionate support to those on their journey to recovery.  She is dedicated to making a positive impact in the lives of individuals struggling with substance use disorder and guiding them towards a healthier, more fulfilling life.  Witnessing clients’ journeys from struggle to recovery fuels her commitment to the field.

Prior to realizing her passion for a career in the recovery community, she spent 10 years teaching Early Childhood Education in Palm Harbor, Florida.

Outside of work, Heather cherishes spending quality time with her daughter, whether they’re exploring local parks, engaging in creative projects, or enjoying a cozy movie night at home.
