Heather A. Cook, MA, MPH, LPC, is the Principal of HECO Consulting. 

Heather is a scientist, integrative systems thinker, and a navigator of the individual and collective human experience. Above all, she is a consultant in the traditional sense of ‘gathering the people who know.’  Her background in Laboratory Science, Public Health, Emergency Preparedness and Psychology provides her with a unique ability to support individuals and organizations through complex situations.

With this combination of disciplines, she says, “I fuse the art and science of exploration, discovery, and practical application. The result is that a newfound capacity is accessed for the people I work with, which allows both the individual leader and their team to emerge stronger from whatever it is facing.”
