About Amy

Amy Myers is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado with 23 years of experience. She works with adults who want practical ways to manage stress, anger, depression, anxiety, or relationship and parenting struggles. She speaks English and German and accepts international clients.

Amy’s sessions focus on concrete skills and clearer thinking. She treats anger as a problem that shows up in work, home life, and relationships, and she helps people notice patterns that lead to snapping, bottling up, or resentment. She emphasizes the person's own strengths and choices rather than telling people what to do.

Her approach mixes straightforward behavioral tools with attention to relationships and values. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is used to find and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people clarify what matters to them and commit to small steps in that direction.

Amy also draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape reactions now. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) skills are used when emotional regulation and distress tolerance are needed. Client-centered principles guide the pace, with the client’s priorities leading the work.

Sessions tend to be practical, with take-home exercises and clear goals. The focus can be on immediate tools for managing a flare-up or on longer-term work such as building self-esteem, addressing trauma, or coping with life transitions. To begin, clients follow the site’s matching steps and schedule a first meeting.

How sessions work

How therapy approaches translate to online work

Amy commonly uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) in her clinical work. ACT helps people name what matters to them and take small actions toward those values even when emotions are strong. CBT looks at thought patterns and behaviors, then teaches practical exercises to change reactions and reduce unhelpful thinking.

She also draws on attachment-based ideas to understand how early relationship patterns affect current reactions. That perspective helps when anger is tied to feeling misunderstood, abandoned, or triggered by close relationships. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process; she works collaboratively to test methods and adjust based on your needs and goals.

Session logistics should be confirmed before booking because the biography does not list specific formats. Discuss options through the site’s matching tools and schedule a session that fits your routine. Online sessions can make it easier to fit short check-ins around work, reduce travel time, and let people practice skills in the settings where problems occur. The focus remains on usable skills, clearer thinking, and practical steps you can try between meetings.
