About Amy
Amy Seligson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) who decided to become a therapist after experiencing counseling as a child during her parents' separation. She credits those early sessions with helping her through a hard transition and shaped her wish to support others facing similar struggles. Amy brings three years of professional counseling experience to her work in Colorado.
She earned a Master of Counseling from Wayne State University and has worked as a special education teacher and as a counselor. Those roles gave her hands-on experience with children, adolescents, teens, and parents and influenced how she approaches clinical work.
Amy uses straightforward, person-focused methods in sessions. She leans on client-centered work to listen closely and build on each person's goals. She also draws from cognitive behavioral ideas to help people notice and change unhelpful thoughts and behaviors.
People come to her for relationship and intimacy concerns, parenting challenges, stress and anxiety, mood struggles, ADHD, and issues related to trauma, abuse, addiction, and codependency. Amy also supports work around self-esteem, loneliness, life purpose, and grieving separation or divorce.
In sessions she aims for practical steps and clear conversation. She helps people sort priorities, practice new skills, and try small changes between meetings. The tone is collaborative and rooted in lived experience rather than jargon.
How therapeutic approaches guide online work
Amy commonly draws on client-centered therapy and cognitive behavioral therapy in her work. Client-centered therapy focuses on listening closely, reflecting what matters to the person, and helping them set their own goals. Cognitive behavioral therapy helps people spot unhelpful thought and behavior patterns and practice small, practical changes that reduce distress.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Amy works with each person to match methods to their needs, goals, and preferences, and she adjusts the plan if something isn't working. The aim is collaborative problem solving rather than a one-size-fits-all prescription.
Confirm the therapist's current session options before booking so you know which online formats are possible. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, shorten commute time, and allow check-ins that work around school or work schedules. It can also let people use phone or lower-bandwidth options when video would be difficult. Talk with the therapist about preferences and practical needs so session logistics support steady progress.
