About Heather
Heather Revill is a Licensed Professional Counselor with 12 years of experience who focuses on helping people set and reach their own goals. She works collaboratively with each person to build a trusting relationship. Her style is warm, direct, and nonjudgmental to make it easier to take the next step.
Heather uses practical strategies from cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. She also draws on client-centered principles to keep sessions focused on each person’s priorities.
Background and approach
Her approach is adaptable rather than one-size-fits-all, so she adjusts techniques to match what each person needs. Clients often come with anxiety, depression, stress, or trouble with self-esteem and life transitions. Heather also addresses trauma and abuse, addiction concerns, relationship and intimacy issues, and challenges tied to parenting, adoption, or foster care.
She brings patience when people are facing grief, career shifts, bipolar mood concerns, or questions about identity and relationships. Heather holds a master’s degree in human behavior with a specialization in counseling and lists licenses as LPC and LCPC. She practices from Maine and conducts therapy in English.
Her background includes work with substance use, family dynamics, and young adult issues, which informs how she plans treatment with each person. Outside of work she spends time with family and a dog, enjoys hiking and yoga, and follows Boston sports. She aims to make therapy a collaborative process that supports steady, realistic progress.
How Heather’s Approaches Translate to Online Work
Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely and following each person’s priorities. In practice this means sessions begin with what matters most to the client and move at a pace they set, which helps with issues like low self-esteem and life purpose.Cognitive behavioral therapy, or CBT, teaches practical tools to change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. It is useful for anxiety, depression, sleep and eating concerns, and managing bipolar mood patterns by breaking problems into specific, manageable steps.
Dialectical behavior therapy, or DBT, offers skills for emotional regulation, distress tolerance, and improving relationships. Those tools can be helpful for anger, intense emotions, and relationship or intimacy struggles.
Heather works with each person to decide which approach or mix of approaches fits best. She treats the choice as a collaboration, adjusting techniques based on goals, progress, and personal preference.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video is good for full conversations and visual cues, phone works when bandwidth is limited, chat suits short check-ins, and messaging allows gradual processing over time. These options make it easier to keep regular appointments and to use therapy in real life moments.
