Heather Browne PsyD, LMFT

Dr. Heather Browne PsyD, LMFT helps people recognize the power of communication.  It is one of our most important skills that we have, and yet we don’t consider our understanding, approach, belief, and therefore, miss our possibilities.  Living with a paranoid schizophrenic mother gave Dr. Heather a unique and powerful awareness that no one has the same reality, though we believe we do.  Utilizing this revolutionary awareness has allowed her to transform communication within self and within all other types of relationship.  This is the hidden key to acceptance.  And this is her mission to share.

As a relationship expert, Dr. Heather Browne has worked with thousands of individuals and couples in psychotherapy.  She is a TedX Speaker and Keynote Speaker.  Her couple’s communication book, Speaking with the Heart: Transforming Your Relationship and Communication with Compassion and Connection, which offers readers a practical way to understand what it takes to truly communicate on a deeper level, not just with their partner, but within themselves, is now available in both paperback and Kindle.

. She is published in hundreds of journals, has an active YouTube channel, has been featured on ABC-7 news, was the relationship expert on KDOC Daybreak OC, and is published in Inc., Toronto Sun, Thriving Family Magazine,  Light + Life, BRAINZ, Scary Mommy, and Psychology Today.  She is a regular guest blogger for both Links for Shrinks and for Marriage Friendly Therapists. She offers a weekly newsletter packed with tips and techniques to improve Relationships and has monthly workshops! Simply go to her website!

A friend posted about walking through life surrounded by faceless faces and it got my mind reeling.   Help me out here…   When you think of that phrase, “a faceless face” do you think of yourself?  Or do you think of others?   Do you walk around feeling faceless in this world?   Or do you walk around not seeing those around you?   Or are you one of the rare people who stay present, both with self and other?   Okay, I know….I am going all existential and all poetic, BUT I am interested.   How do you perceive yourself in this world?   Do you think that we are faceless faces …

A couple years back, I went to China with my daughter. It was a fascinating experience because we’d never been to Asia before. And when we were there, because Sienna and I are both six foot one, we stood out like we were celebrities, because we're so tall, and very fair and blonde. We were asked to be in hundreds and hundreds of photos and videos. People were hugging us and bowing to us.  It was powerful. And it was odd, because here in America, we're just two females like so many others.   I remember the day before we were leaving, and our top Travel guide asked me, “Do you know what th…

What is missing in most of our conversations?   Connection. The best communications start with connection first. We don’t do this. We focus on the words and our thoughts. And if someone is upset or hurt we really miss this important opportunity. We try to clarify our position, clarify our intention, without first recognizing the emotional expression or desire of the other person. Here’s a great example, if you tripped over my foot, fell on the floor, and were upset with me, and I immediately shouted back, “It wasn’t my fault! You didn’t look where you were walking.” How would yo…

Would you like to tap into the gift of blessedness?  Would you lik to live an honrtring life? Tensions, fears, Anxiety, and apprehension are all running a little high in the world right now.  Let's give you a glorious gift. And we have all heard that being present, being thankful can shift that. But how do you do it?

I hope it will bless you! Take a deep breath and soak it in. I send so much Love!   ht…

I Can't See!!! Life and accounts have felt a little bit like a rollercoaster ride the past month, hasn’t it? I was putting in my contacts the other day and had the most powerful thought. I can be fearful with where things are and concerned about what’s ahead OR I can focus on the most profound truth. My life is so much easier than so many of those who have gone before me. I can simply pop in contacts. And my contacts help me see clearly. If I lived 100-or more years ago I don’t know that I would even be able to read anything, not a book, a recipe, a song. How different my life would be…

PANIC ATTACK!!!! Have you had one? Many several?   I had never experienced one until shortly after my late husband died. Very quickly, I had two. Not really surprising but it was still hard, scary, and tiring. I help clients with Anxiety and panic frequently. And i was blessed to be panic attack free for the next 10 years. Not a one, until...the other day.   BAM!!!! Overly stressed, tired, concerned... BAM!!!! Dear Lord they are tough! And I needed to ask myself, why did this occur? What do I need? Where is my attention to be? And why did this rise up so huge?   The challenge with panic at…

Rituals and Traditions ​ Why are we drawn to rituals and traditions? Why do we connect with drumming or the sound of chant and prayer? ​ Have you noticed that there are certain sounds and vibrations that bring you peace? Maybe Gregorian chant, maybe South American flute, Native American song, a whale’s call Why is this? Helping yourself move into this healing space is what modern science is trying to show us in recommending Meditation, breathwork, Yoga, nature, it all takes us back to our roots which is, the body’s desire to restore itself. And when we bring the body and mind together,…

Finding Your TribeIn last week's episode of EZ Conversations, I had a powerful discussion with Justin Nault (Listen Here). We explored his journey from becoming a musician and feeling performative to finding his true calling: guiding people to make better life choices. We talked about myths about eating nutritional food and making healthier choices and the more significant impact these choices can have. At the fundamental level, our discussion revolved around the Aristotelian notion that we are what we do. Making disciplined choices and doing them consistently results in habits that deter…

I Am Not Fighting But I Am Tired of Being The Bigger One! ​ I hear this a lot...people saying they are tired of doing what's right or they are tired of doing the big thing. And I am sure that I have said this myself too. But I just realized something, something big. ​ Get ready, here comes some powerful truth from the Reframe Queen. ​ Are you truly tired of being the bigger person? ​ I don't think so. I think you are tired of somebody screwing up your plans! I think you are tired of the mess that's left for you to clean up! I don't think you are tired of being honorable or honest. I th…

"Difficult conversations can make or break a connection. When you add preconceived notions, assumptions, and negative narratives to the mix, you create the perfect recipe for misunderstanding and disconnection. What could have been an opportunity for learning, Growth, and deeper understanding can quickly turn sour. We’ve all been guilty of assuming we know better—of believing we understand so…

"I Love YOU!" 3 simple words that hold immense power, yet often lose their weight in everyday exchanges. How often do you say it? How often do you mean it? How often does it deeply impact you?   Since we recently shared Valentine’s Day, I thought this would be a great exploration inspired by my dear friend Michael Mints He asked….What happens when you peel back the layers of this phrase⁉️ When you say "I Love you," are you expressing genuine AFFECTION, or are you seeking VALIDATION? Is it for you or the other? Or are you haphazardly saying these three words? Oooooooo! It can get…

Do you want to be unique? Do you? Or do you want to fit in and be like everyone around you? Hmmmmmm... Or do you want to be perfect? Do you strive to be better than everyone else?   Most of us do a little of both, but at different times and in different places. And think about what this says to our view of our self? What do you say to you? "Okay, here you gotta tone down, hide that, don't be so much you, why can't you be more like Joe...." "Okay, so you can't be all of y ou at that meeting. But here, here on the socials, you need to be the best. You need to bring it all. Here you need to st…
