About Heather

Heather Raymo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) licensed in Colorado with 29 years of practice. She helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, trauma and abuse, grief, life changes, addictions, relationship and intimacy concerns, and issues around sleep and eating.

She has worked in many settings including private practice, hospital, hospice, home health, chronic pain care, and adoption services. That variety shaped a practical style focused on real problems and steady problem solving. She combines logical assessment with attention to feelings to help set clear, achievable goals.

Heather draws on several therapy approaches. She uses client-centered methods to listen and understand what matters most. Cognitive behavioral techniques are used to notice unhelpful thoughts and try different behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy ideas support values-driven choices when people feel stuck.

Her background also includes biology and psychophysiology studies, which she applies when chronic pain or medical issues are part of the picture. She has long experience helping caregivers, people navigating medical diagnoses, and those coping with loss or major life transitions.

Outside of work she has lived in Colorado for more than 20 years and spends time hiking, camping, and reading. To begin she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session, so she can learn about immediate concerns and practical goals.

BHow sessions work

How Heather uses therapy approaches in online sessions

Heather commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy in her work. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on clarifying personal values and taking committed actions toward them despite unpleasant thoughts or feelings. It can help with anxiety, depression, and getting unstuck during life transitions. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and actions and offers practical exercises to test and change unhelpful patterns. That approach is often useful for anxiety, mood problems, and sleep or eating concerns.

She treats finding the right approach as a collaborative process. Early sessions are used to identify immediate problems, set practical goals, and try different techniques to see what fits. The therapist and client check in and adjust methods based on the client's needs and preferences rather than using one fixed method.

Confirm session formats before booking so you know whether video, phone, or other options are available. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments around work, caregiving, and medical needs. Shorter check-ins, sessions that avoid a commute, and flexible scheduling are all practical benefits that help therapy fit into everyday life.
