About Wendy

Wendy Richmond is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Colorado. She brings five years of professional experience supporting people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, grief, trauma, and low self esteem. Wendy frames clients as experts in their own lives and focuses on practical steps that build on existing strengths.

She emphasizes straightforward work in sessions. Conversations focus on what is happening now and what the person wants to change. Wendy draws on approaches that help with coping, emotional regulation, and processing difficult memories so clients can move forward with daily life.

Wendy uses tools from cognitive behavioral work to identify unhelpful thoughts and test new ways of thinking. She also incorporates acceptance and commitment strategies to help people clarify values and take small actions toward them. When trauma is part of the story, she may use methods that support processing painful memories.

Her style is collaborative and respectful. Wendy listens first, then offers techniques and practice exercises that fit the client’s goals. Many people come for help with life transitions, depression, or strengthening self-belief, and she supports steady progress rather than quick fixes.

Wendy’s background includes clinical social work training and hands-on practice with diverse concerns. She works in English and sees clients in Colorado. To begin, readers are invited to use the site’s Start Therapy flow to match and schedule sessions.

How Wendy’s approaches translate to online work

Wendy draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people clarify what matters to them and take small, value-based steps even when emotions feel heavy. She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to spot and test unhelpful thinking patterns and develop new habits that improve mood and daily functioning. When trauma is present she may use EMDR-informed techniques to support processing of distressing memories.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Wendy will talk with each person about their needs and preferences and adapt methods over time. That means the plan can change as progress is made and new goals emerge, with the client guiding what feels most useful.

If you are considering online therapy, confirm the session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, shorten check-ins when time is tight, or avoid travel to appointments. Licensed professionals can use these methods effectively over remote sessions, and Wendy helps people apply skills and practices between meetings to support steady change.
