About Hiedi
Hiedi Konsol is a licensed clinical social worker with 18 years of experience in mental health and substance use support. She is based in Indiana and brings practical help for people facing stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem, depression, and life transitions.

Background and approach
That background shapes a straightforward style that blends goal-focused conversation with emotional support. Hiedi sees clients as the experts in their own lives and aims to build on existing strengths. In sessions she helps people sort priorities, sharpen motivation, and practice new ways to cope.
She uses clear, step-by-step ideas to address things like communication problems, commitment worries, and the practical fallout from illness or caregiving stress. She also assists with issues tied to loss, abandonment, body image, and blended household concerns. Hiedi has worked with people affected by chronic pain, cancer, and the stress that comes with major life changes.
She is familiar with trauma, domestic violence, divorce and separation, and disruptive mood concerns. Her approach balances real-world problem solving with emotional processing. People who prefer a direct, compassionate therapist often find her style helpful.
She encourages collaboration, sets achievable goals, and focuses on small changes that add up over time.
Evidence-based approaches and online care
Hiedi uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change and emotional processing. One common approach she draws on emphasizes goal setting and skill practice to improve motivation, routine, and coping with stress. This helps people manage anxiety, depression, and the daily impact of ADHD. Another approach centers on working through difficult emotions after loss or trauma by creating space to name feelings and develop safer ways to respond. That style is useful for grief, trauma, and relationship-related wounds.Deciding which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, needs, and preferences and then tailor methods that fit. Together they try different strategies and adjust what isn’t working until a good fit is found.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls let people talk face to face; phone sessions can be easier when doing a quick check-in or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, coping reminders, or ongoing support between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caregiving, or health needs while maintaining consistent progress.
