Testimonials

See what my clients have to say about me:

Heidi Kalak is the most compassionate, empathetic, knowledgeable and caring counselor, I have worked with in my practice of medicine that has spanned approximately four decades. Heidi has a unique style and approach that is incomparable.
 
Heidi’s care, apparent from the numerous patients we have shared, is based on the simple principle of humanity that each patient is different. By taking the extra time to understand each patient, her approach has been incredibly successful in a field of medicine which is complex and demanding.
 
I may add that many of my patients will echo my sentiment. We are all so grateful for Heidi.

After a serious fall in 2019, I found myself with a serious concussion. I was referred to Dr. Mystery and his brain injury clinic to start the process of healing.

As we began to work together, I expressed concerns regarding my mental health; it was suggested I see Heidi Kalak for therapy. This was truly the best thing that could have happened to me.

I started meeting with Heidi once a week, and we worked on both my mental health concerns and navigating the newfound difficulties of my TBI. She helped me to understand the effects that a brain injury can have on both my mental and physical health.

I was experiencing vision difficulties, trouble with balance, loss of memory, and an overall loss of motivation to do simple tasks. This caused a great deal of stress that I didn’t know how to deal with on my own. 

Heidi and I worked on ways to manage that stress by focusing on the things that were in my control, such as working with a physical therapist and an occupational therapist. Along with having discussions about how I was feeling and what little things I could do to help make me feel better.

After about a year of working with Heidi, the physical therapist, and the occupational therapist, I fully recovered and was able to go back to my normal life.

I have continued to see Heidi Kalak since then, and she has been the best therapist I have ever had. I am so thankful for everything she has done for me, and I feel truly blessed that I was able to work with an amazing therapist like her.

I have had the privilege of being a client of Heidi’s for several years now. What started out as an attempt to work through postpartum anxiety led me to a compassionate guide for this and so much more.

Heidi is an incredibly skilled therapist with a true gift for this work. She is genuine, intuitive, nonjudgemental, a fantastic listener, and full of practical tools and resources for so many different needs. I cannot say enough about Heidi. She has had a profound impact on my life and my growth. I am so thankful to have found her and for the opportunity to work with her.

Simply put, Heidi is a phenomenal therapist. I highly and confidently recommend her!

I am so appreciative to be able to refer to Heidi when I have patients struggling with traumatic brain injury, medical complications and psychological factors. Having a TBI can be hard on an individual/family and it requires a very skilled clinician to help navigate shifts in identity, functioning and family systems. Heidi is the best clinician I have ever known to balance all of these difficult issues. Heidi has been a treasured colleague to me and a lifesaver to my patients.
