About Amy
Amy Myers is a licensed professional counselor in Colorado who helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, and relationship or parenting concerns. She draws on 23 years of experience to support people through grief, trauma, addiction, and changes that feel overwhelming. Amy speaks English and German and welcomes people from different places, including international clients.
In sessions she treats each person as the expert on their own life. Conversations focus on practical steps and on uncovering strengths that are already present.
Background and approach
She uses straightforward talk and collaborative goal-setting to build confidence and momentum. Amy blends several approaches to match what each person needs. She uses cognitive behavioral techniques to shift unhelpful thinking and behavior.
She also works with acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values and committed action. Attachment-based and client-centered methods shape how she listens and responds. This helps when relationships, abandonment, or attachment issues are part of the problem.
Dialectical behavior ideas are used when emotion regulation and coping skills are a priority. She has worked with people dealing with bipolar disorder, eating or sleeping problems, ADHD, chronic illness, and caregiver stress. Amy also supports those facing career challenges, intimacy concerns, body image, and transitions such as adoption or aging.
Sessions aim to leave people with usable tools and clearer next steps.
Therapeutic approaches and online care
Amy often combines cognitive behavioral therapy and acceptance and commitment therapy in online work. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with real-life changes. It can help with anxiety, low mood, and behavior patterns that get in the way. Acceptance and commitment therapy helps people clarify what matters to them and take small actions that match those values when emotions are strong.She aims to find the right approach together with each person. That means talking about goals, preferences, and what has or hasn't helped in the past. The therapist and client decide collaboratively whether to emphasize skills practice, values-based action, or relationship-focused work like attachment-based ideas.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging to fit different schedules. Video works well for longer therapy meetings and skill demonstrations. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat or text messaging can be useful for quick coaching, check-ins between sessions, or when typing out thoughts feels clearer. These options make it easier to keep therapy consistent around work, travel, caregiving, or other commitments.
