personal – professional – creative
Enrichment & Growth
Welcome. Since 1998, we’ve been dedicated to supporting growth: for professionals, individuals, and in the spaces where the personal and professional meet.
Whether you’re a clinician seeking continuing education, consultation, or mentoring — or an individual yearning to explore your inner world — we offer meaningful, mutually created experiences grounded in clinical integrity, wisdom, experiential learning, and a belief in the power of symbolic expression to open what words alone cannot.
Our style is both intentional and organic, allowing space for new insights, clarity, and discernment to unfurl.
If you feel called to connect with your creativity, deepen your practice, or simply explore what’s stirring within, we’d be honored to walk with you.
We are proud to offer equity pricing and depth experience for meeting CE hours when needed.

Meet Heather
LCSW, RPT-S
Heather Maritano started her private practice in 1998, working with a variety of issues in individual and family therapy. She has clinical specialties in Play Therapy & Sandtray Therapy and is a registered play therapist supervisor.
Develop your Inner Resources
Professional development is as much about experiencing a way of being, as learning a way of doing.
Experience, Understand, Apply
Each Inner Resources training includes ample experiential process, self-reflection, and in-depth discussion to secure the learning goals. Our teaching methods integrate experience, theory, conceptualization, and application.
Small Group Format
Both online and in-person workshops are kept small in order to facilitate a sense of community and the safety necessary to most fully engage the learning process.
It is in playing and only in playing that the individual child or adult is able to use the whole personality, and it is only in being creative that the individual discovers the self.

& Trainings
We enjoy working with individuals and groups to create training and retreat experiences to meet specific goals. We put together experiences collaboratively by request (online and in person), that can be a one time event or a series type of training that builds on a particular subject. Heather is willing to travel to your location, and enjoys putting together training, seminars & retreats to meet your specific areas of interest. Her on the road presentations started in Brown County (a short 30 minutes from home) and have taken her as far as Hong Kong.
