About Andrew

Andrew Heinz is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, LCSW, practicing in Colorado with 16 years of professional experience. He focuses on helping people who feel stuck in painful or destructive cycles find relief and clearer ways forward. He frames emotional wounds like physical ones - if left untreated they can limit daily life - and offers steady, practical support during recovery.

Andrew commonly helps adolescents and adults dealing with addiction, mood and anxiety struggles, grief, impulse control problems, and relationship or attachment difficulties. He also supports people facing low self esteem, parenting stress, career crossroads, and intense shame or guilt. His work addresses both immediate problems and patterns that keep returning.

In sessions he uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and to practice different ways of responding. He combines this with an adaptable approach that attends to emotions, body responses, and personal history. The goal is to reduce symptoms and build skills people can use between sessions.

Andrew aims to make therapy a partnership. He listens for what matters most to each person and then sets clear, manageable goals. He offers straightforward tools for coping with panic, stress, cravings, or overwhelming emotions.

People who choose him often want practical steps along with space to process hard feelings. He invites those ready to try changing long-standing patterns to start with a simple conversation about goals and next steps.

How CBT Shapes Online Work and Practical Support

Andrew uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people notice thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going, then practices alternative responses to reduce anxiety, panic, or mood swings. CBT is hands-on and skill oriented, which often fits well with remote sessions because skills can be taught, practiced, and reviewed between meetings.

He also brings an adaptable, informed approach that attends to how emotions show up in the body and how past attachment wounds affect current relationships. These perspectives help when working through shame, addiction cycles, impulse control, and low self esteem by linking present reactions to patterns formed over time.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. He collaborates with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and situation, adjusting plans as progress unfolds. This joint process helps tailor tools and homework to what actually helps the individual.

Confirm current session options before booking so you know what formats are offered. Online therapy can make scheduling easier and fit sessions into busy weeks, reduce travel time, and allow for shorter check-ins when needed. Talk with the therapist about what will best fit your routine and goals.
