About Amy
Amy Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 23 years of clinical experience. She focuses on practical steps people can take when life feels overwhelming, from anxiety and depression to challenges like parenting, trauma, and career transitions. She speaks English and German and works with people facing midlife shifts who want clearer direction and more confidence.
Amy centers sessions on each person's lived experience and strengths. She treats the person, not just the problem, and helps clients break big issues into manageable steps. Conversations are straightforward and goal-focused, with space to name feelings and try new ways of coping.
Her approach draws on several evidence-informed methods to suit different needs. She uses acceptance and commitment ideas to clarify values, cognitive behavioral tools to shift unhelpful thinking, and attachment-based perspectives to improve close relationships. Dialectical strategies and client-centered listening appear when they fit the situation.
Over two decades in the field have given Amy experience with a wide range of concerns, including compassion fatigue, addiction, bipolar disorder, grief, eating and sleeping problems, ADHD, and caregiver stress. She also supports people dealing with abandonment, adoption and foster care issues, chronic illness, body image, and blended family dynamics.
Starting therapy begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling through the site. Sessions use a subscription model that can be canceled at any time, and international clients are accepted. Prospective clients are encouraged to follow the Start Therapy button and complete the intake to arrange a first appointment.

How her approaches shape online work
Amy often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify what matters to them and take small actions toward those values. ACT can be useful for stress, midlife changes, and situations where people feel stuck.She also uses cognitive behavioral therapy to spot and change unhelpful thought patterns. CBT is practical and often helpful for anxiety, depression, sleep or eating difficulties, and managing mood swings.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with each person about goals, preferences, and what feels most useful. Together they decide which methods to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.
If you prefer online work, check the available session options before booking because formats were not specified in the biography. Online therapy can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy day, allow shorter check-ins when needed, or reduce travel time. It can also let someone choose audio-only or video sessions depending on bandwidth, comfort, and what helps them focus on the work.
