Heather Ackley, LCSW — Therapist in Colorado

Hi there, I'm Heather!

I work with trauma survivors of all ages. I provide a client-centered, trauma-informed safe place for clients to process and heal.

My focus

I mainly support adults who are survivors of any type of trauma.

My approach

I am very client-centered, meaning we work on what you need to address in session.

My communication style

My communication style is open and supportive. I make sure to validate my clients while also not shying away from difficult discussions.

My journey to mental healthcare

I started as a parenting coach and realized the need for trauma support among adults, so I created a practice to support just that.

My goals for you

I ensure clients are the driving force of our session in order to help them achieve the goals they have set.

Our first session

My first session starts with some time getting to know you and why you are seeking support. Then we will go through the necessary paperwork and create your first treatment plan.
