About Wendy

Wendy Richmond is a licensed clinical social worker in Colorado who brings five years of practice to her work with adults. She focuses on stress, anxiety, grief, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, depression, and life changes. Wendy encourages people to notice their strengths and to use them as tools for change.

She says starting therapy takes courage and greets that step with steady support. Wendy favors straightforward talks and practical skills.

Background and approach

She uses approaches like cognitive behavioral therapy to help people spot unhelpful thinking and try new actions. She also draws on acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and build small habits that matter. For trauma and distress she uses EMDR alongside other tools to reduce the hold of painful memories.

Dialectical behavior therapy skills can be offered when people need help with intense emotions or steadying relationships. Client-centered principles guide sessions so people feel heard and respected. Wendy works with a wide range of concerns including coping with aging, codependency, life purpose, and isolation or loneliness.

She also addresses issues such as divorce, family problems, and guilt or shame in a calm, practical way. Her approach mixes short-term problem-solving with longer-term personal growth. Sessions aim to be collaborative and paced to each person.

Wendy helps set clear goals, teaches skills to use between sessions, and revisits progress regularly. She keeps language simple and focuses on what people can do next.

Online support

How approaches and online care come together

Wendy often uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help people notice patterns of thought and behavior and test small changes that reduce symptoms. CBT is practical work focused on changing unhelpful thinking and building new habits to feel better. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy is another common approach she uses; ACT helps people clarify what matters to them and take committed steps toward that life, even when unpleasant thoughts or feelings arise.

She also integrates EMDR for people affected by traumatic memories, using it alongside other methods to reduce distress tied to specific events. Choosing the right approach is a team effort - the therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they adapt methods over time rather than sticking to one single technique.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules and needs. Video allows face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone works well when bandwidth is limited, and chat or text can be used for brief check-ins or ongoing support between appointments. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent while juggling work, caregiving, or other responsibilities.
