Heather Revill

Heather Revill is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) with twelve years of experience helping people manage stress, anxiety, anger, and life changes. She meets clients where they are and works together with them to set practical goals. Heather emphasizes a warm, collaborative relationship so people feel heard and can try new ways of coping.

Heather uses approaches that let clients be specific about what they want to change. She commonly uses cognitive behavioral ideas to identify unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and motivational techniques to boost commitment to change. She also draws on mindfulness and dialectical skills to help people tolerate strong emotions and reduce reactivity.

Her background includes work with depression, trauma and abuse, substance use, and family and adoption-related concerns. She has supported people facing grief, relationship strain, parenting stress, and challenges around intimacy and self-esteem. Heather describes her style as compassionate and nonjudgmental, and she believes clients are the experts on their own lives.

Heather holds a Master’s degree in Human Behavior with a specialization in counseling. Her licenses include LPC and LCPC in New Jersey and Maine. She is based in Maine and works in English.

If someone is thinking about therapy, Heather suggests a straightforward first step: pick a goal, try a few different strategies, and adjust as needed. She values small, steady changes that fit into real life and helps people build skills they can use between sessions.

How Heather’s approaches translate to online therapy

Client-Centered Therapy focuses on listening and building trust so people can set their own goals and feel supported while they try new things. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, behaviors, and feelings and teaches concrete skills to change patterns that cause distress. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) offers emotion regulation and distress tolerance skills that help reduce reactivity and manage intense feelings.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Heather will talk with each person about their needs and goals and together decide which methods to try first. Plans can be adjusted as progress is reviewed, so the approach can change if something else seems more helpful.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can help fit therapy into a busy week by reducing commute time and making it easier to schedule short check-ins or regular sessions. It can also let people practice skills in their everyday routines, then bring observations back to sessions for discussion and refinement.
