About Amy

Amy Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) practicing in Colorado with 23 years of experience. She aims to make beginning therapy simple and respectful, and she acknowledges the courage it takes to start. She speaks English and German and works with people facing a range of concerns, including stress, anxiety, depression, bipolar issues, grief, and challenges tied to adoption and foster care.

Amy views each person as the expert on their own life and focuses on building from the strengths clients already have. Sessions center on practical steps that fit into everyday life. Common goals include managing emotions, improving sleep and eating routines, and increasing confidence and motivation.

Her approach blends clear, skills-based methods with attention to how early attachment and relationships shape current patterns. That means offering strategies to reduce distress while also looking at long-standing patterns that affect relationships and self-image. She uses techniques drawn from cognitive-behavioral methods, acceptance-oriented work, and therapy that prioritizes the clients perspective.

Over two decades of work have included helping people with addiction concerns, compassion fatigue, caregiver stress, and co-occurring medical or mental health issues. Amy also supports folks dealing with abandonment, attachment concerns, and the particular stresses that come with adoption and foster care experiences.

Her style is straightforward and collaborative. She will listen first, then offer tools chosen to match each persons goals and life demands. To begin, a simple sign-up and short questionnaire are used to match needs and schedule sessions.

Approaches that translate well to online work

Amy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy as part of her approach. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck, then focus on actions that matter. This approach can be useful for anxiety, depression, and coping with life changes. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns, helping people understand and shift long-standing habits in relationships and self-image.

Finding the right approach is a team effort. Amy will listen to your goals and try methods that match your needs and preferences. Together you can test techniques and adjust the focus as you learn what feels most helpful. The collaboration helps make sessions useful from the start.

The practical benefits of online therapy include easier fit into a busy schedule and fewer obstacles to getting consistent care. Online work can make shorter check-ins or longer sessions easier to arrange around work, caregiving, or medical needs. Specific session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm the available options before booking. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and attachment-focused work to remote sessions to help with symptom management, building routines, and improving relationship patterns.
