About Heather

Heather Raymo is a Colorado LCSW (Licensed Clinical Social Worker) with 29 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and life changes. Her practice also addresses relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting stress, addictions, sleep and eating problems, ADHD, and career questions.

She uses straightforward, practical work in sessions. She listens for what matters most and combines client-centered conversation with cognitive-behavioral ideas and mindfulness-based practices. Sessions often focus on clear goals, concrete steps, and skills to manage difficult feelings.

Her background includes private practice, hospital work, hospice, home health, chronic pain programs, and adoption services. That range informs how she approaches long-term medical issues, caregiver stress, and adoption-related concerns. She has formal social work degrees and earlier study in biology and psychophysiology.

In therapy she balances intuition with logical problem solving. That means noticing emotions while helping clients make practical choices. She may introduce acceptance-based techniques, emotion-focused work, or brief hypnotherapy when helpful.

Outside of clinical work she has lived in Colorado for more than 20 years and spends time hiking, camping, and reading. Prospective clients who feel stuck after a change in work, relationships, or health often find her approach focused on daily coping and next-step planning.

How Heather uses therapy approaches in online sessions

Heather commonly draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). ACT focuses on identifying values and taking small actions that match those values while learning to accept difficult feelings. It can help with feeling stuck after a life change. CBT focuses on noticing unhelpful thoughts and testing them through action and behavior changes to reduce anxiety and low mood.

She treats approach selection as a collaborative process. During early sessions she will listen to your priorities and try different methods to see what fits. The plan evolves based on your goals, preferences, and what seems helpful in practice.

The site biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight, and reduce travel time for appointments. It also lets sessions happen from wherever you can have quieter surroundings or a reliable connection, which can help maintain consistency while addressing stress, grief, or career transitions.
