About Heather

Heather Engle is a licensed clinical social worker who uses practical therapies to help people manage stress and anxiety. She listens with care and helps clients take small steps toward feeling better. Her style is straightforward and focused on real-life change.

Heather draws on approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy and trauma-focused work to address upsetting memories and recurring worries. She also uses mindfulness skills to reduce rumination and Dialectical Behavior Therapy tools for managing strong emotions.

Background and approach

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing may be part of the work when trauma memories are a core concern. Clients can expect clear, simple goals and hands-on strategies. Heather helps identify unhelpful thought patterns and then practices new ways of responding.

Sessions include learning coping skills, managing anger, and building self-esteem through small, manageable steps. She has four years of clinical experience in Colorado as an LCSW, and earlier work as a CSW is part of her background. That experience includes supporting people after loss and helping with communication problems and forgiveness when guilt or shame are present.

Heather emphasizes a nonjudgmental space where clients can talk honestly about what they are feeling. She frames therapy as a collaborative process and supports people as they try new coping strategies. The focus is on practical change that fits into everyday life.

Online support

Online approaches for trauma, anxiety, and coping

CBT, or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, helps people spot and change thoughts and behaviors that keep stress and anxiety going. It often involves short exercises and practice between sessions to try new ways of thinking and acting. EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing, focuses on processing distressing memories so they feel less intense. It is commonly used when past trauma or abuse continues to cause strong emotional reactions. Mindfulness Therapy teaches present-moment awareness and simple practices to reduce rumination and reactivity. These skills can make it easier to notice emotions without getting swept away by them. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Heather will talk with each person about their needs, goals, and preferences and then collaborate on which methods to use. The plan can change over time as progress is made and priorities shift. Online sessions offer flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from different locations. Phone sessions require less bandwidth and can be easier when being on camera is difficult. Live chat and text-based messaging make shorter check-ins or step-by-step skill work more convenient between appointments. These options help people fit therapy into their routine and try different ways of receiving support without traveling to an office.
