About Amy

Amy Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 23 years of clinical experience. She offers calm, direct guidance for people who are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure where to begin. Amy emphasizes practical steps and helps people build on the strengths they already have.

She focuses on common everyday challenges like stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and burnout. She also supports people coping with relationship and intimacy concerns, grief, trauma and abuse, and substance-related struggles. Codependency is listed among her areas of focus, and she helps people understand and shift patterns that interfere with healthier choices.

Amy uses straightforward methods drawn from approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and Attachment-Based Therapy. Sessions are framed around small, useful changes that fit into daily life, like noticing patterns, changing responses, and practicing new skills. She believes clients bring important knowledge about their lives and works collaboratively to set clear, achievable goals.

Her style is down-to-earth and respectful, with an emphasis on building confidence and motivation. People who choose her can expect a practical, stepwise pace focused on what matters most to them. Amy also speaks German in addition to English, which can help German-speaking clients connect more quickly.

To begin, clients use the site Start Therapy workflow and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling according to availability.

How Amy’s Approaches Translate to Online Work

Amy draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based Therapy in her practice. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy focuses on helping people notice thoughts and feelings without being pushed around by them, and then choose actions that match their values; it can help with anxiety, depression, and patterns like avoidance. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape expectations and responses in current relationships; it can help people who struggle with trust, closeness, or codependency.

Finding the right approach often takes some trial and conversation. Amy treats the selection of methods as a collaborative process and will check in about what is working and what is not. Together the client and therapist set goals and adjust tools to fit the person’s needs and preferences.

Confirm the current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online work can make it simpler to fit sessions into a busy life by removing travel time and allowing for more flexible scheduling. It can also make it easier to have shorter check-ins when needed, or to choose a session style that requires less bandwidth if that is helpful. Licensed professionals can adapt ACT and attachment-based exercises for virtual sessions so clients can practice new responses between meetings.
