About Amy

Amy Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 23 years of clinical work. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar concerns, and issues with self-esteem. She also supports those coping with trauma and abuse, relationship strain, parenting challenges, grief, and problems with sleep or eating.

She approaches sessions by treating each person as the expert on their own life. Conversations focus on practical steps and on identifying strengths that can be used to manage current problems. Amy uses straightforward techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different responses.

Attachment-based ideas inform how she looks at relationships and intimacy-related concerns. Dialectical behavior therapy skills are used when people need tools for emotion regulation and distress tolerance. Client-centered principles guide the pace and tone so people can set goals and move at a comfortable speed.

Amy has worked in a variety of settings across her career and draws on that experience when helping with career transitions, addiction issues, compassion fatigue, and chronic health challenges. She also offers support around adoption and foster care, abandonment, attachment questions, and body image concerns.

Sessions are conversational and goal-focused. She can work with people in English and German, and she accepts international clients. To begin, visitors are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire and schedule a first session.

How her approaches translate to online work

Amy uses cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) to help people spot and change unhelpful thinking and behavior patterns. CBT often involves setting small experiments and practical homework to test new ways of coping. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) is another method she draws on; it focuses on clarifying values and practicing skills to live with difficult thoughts and feelings rather than getting stuck trying to eliminate them.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Amy works collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's goals, needs, and preferences. That conversation often happens across the first few sessions and can lead to mixing techniques from CBT, ACT, attachment-based ideas, or DBT skills depending on what helps most.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to schedule sessions around school, work, or caregiving. It can also allow shorter check-ins, avoid travel time, or reduce the need to be on camera when bandwidth is limited. Licensed professionals adapt pacing and tools so therapy fits everyday life without forcing a particular format.
