About Amy
Amy Cooper is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with eight years of practice. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship concerns, grief, anger, and related issues. Amy also supports people facing career changes, intimacy questions, and struggles with self-esteem and depression.
Amy has a background supporting substance use and other addictions, and she uses a harm-reduction perspective when that fits the person she is working with. She also received training from Stephanie Covington in trauma-informed care, which guides how she addresses traumatic experiences without asking people to relive them. Recent training has included work on disordered eating and body image concerns.
Her approach blends client-centered work with techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness. Sessions include practical skill-building, gentle reality testing of unhelpful thoughts, and exercises to increase present-moment awareness. Motivational interviewing and solution-focused strategies are used when the goal is clearer problem-solving or behavior change.
Amy frames therapy as collaborative. She explains methods, offers options, and adapts to what a person prefers. That can look like learning to spot triggers for anger, practicing short grounding skills for anxiety, or creating stepwise plans for substance reduction.
She encourages straightforward conversation about goals and next steps. To begin, people complete a short questionnaire and schedule a first session to see if the match feels right.
How sessions work
How Amy Uses Practical Approaches in Remote Sessions
Amy commonly draws from cognitive behavioral therapy and mindfulness when working remotely. Cognitive behavioral therapy focuses on identifying unhelpful thought patterns and testing them with practical behavioral experiments, which can help with anger, anxiety, and mood concerns. Mindfulness therapy teaches short attention and grounding practices that reduce reactivity and help people notice physical and emotional signals before anger escalates.She also uses client-centered principles to keep the process collaborative. That means she listens for what matters most, explains options in clear terms, and adjusts the plan together with the person based on goals and preferences. The choice of techniques is a shared decision and may shift as progress is made.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy day, easier scheduling around work, and using shorter check-ins when helpful. Because session formats are not listed in this biography, confirm the available online options before booking. The focus is on making therapeutic work fit into everyday life through clear skills practice, planning, and regular review.
