Getting to know Heather Westbrook

Hi there, I'm Heather! My name is Heather, and I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in the state of Colorado. I earned my Master?s in Social Work from the University of Kentucky. I specialize in treating anxiety, depression, occupational distress, interpersonal relations, time and stress management, life adjustments, trauma, and military-related challenges. I approach therapy as a collaborative relationship where client and therapist work together to achieve SMART goals while allowing the client to maintain their autonomy. My approach I utilize several evidence-based practices in the therapeutic setting, including cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, trauma-focused interventions, eye movement desensitization and reprocessing, person-centered therapy, and supportive interventions. My focus As an Army Veteran, I have years of experience working with military service members and their family members. I have experience treating military-specific mental health concerns as well as other areas of concern such as anxiety, depression, and life transitions. My communication style I create an environment where I meet the client where they are in the therapeutic process. I match my client's level of comfort to minimize the possibility of them becoming overwhelmed. The intent is to create a safe space where they feel open to the process and increase the likelihood of allowing themselves to be vulnerable. My journey to mental healthcare I have always had an immense desire to help others make significant and lasting improvements in their lives to achieve their goals and live the life they deserve. Having experienced challenges myself and witnessed others do the same, it is my goal to empower others to make real changes in their lives. My goals for you The client and I will develop SMART goals based on the client?s desired outcomes, which include specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-based objectives.
