About Heather

Heather Raymo is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) in Colorado with 29 years of experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, trauma and family-related concerns. She also supports people coping with life changes, caregiving strain, addiction issues, sleep and eating concerns, and attention-related challenges such as ADHD.

Heather uses clear, direct conversation and goal-focused work in sessions. She combines client-centered methods with cognitive behavioral techniques and elements from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Emotionally-Focused Therapy. She may also incorporate hypnotherapy when appropriate to the person's goals.

Her background spans private practice, hospital and hospice care, home health, chronic pain programs, and adoption-related services. That range informs how she helps people manage practical problems and emotional responses that come from family of origin issues and other early life experiences.

In a session Heather listens for patterns that keep repeating in daily life. Then she helps people spot small changes to test out. Work can include teaching new coping skills, shifting unhelpful thoughts, and practicing different ways to relate to others. Sessions often focus on clear, achievable steps rather than abstract theory.

Outside of clinical work Heather has a long interest in nature and outdoor activities. She has formal training in social work with additional study in biology and psychophysiology. Her practice reflects many years helping people carry everyday responsibilities while managing emotional challenges.

Therapeutic approaches used and online sessions

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) focuses on noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and on clarifying personal values to guide action. It can help with anxiety, avoidance, and making changes that matter to you. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors and teaches practical skills to change patterns that maintain distress. It is often used for anxiety, depression, and sleep or eating concerns. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) helps people identify and name core emotions and practice new ways of responding in relationships and interpersonal situations.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will talk with the client about goals and preferences and will use methods that fit those needs. That collaborative process may include trying a few techniques and deciding what helps most for current concerns.

Session formats were not specified in the biography, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy schedule, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and reduce travel time for people with mobility or caregiving demands. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT, CBT, and EFT techniques for remote sessions so that practical skill practice and emotion-focused conversations still take place.
