About Amy
Amy Partlow is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people manage stress, anxiety, grief, parenting challenges, and self-esteem concerns. She offers straightforward support for trauma and abuse recovery and for those facing panic or post-traumatic stress. Amy practices in Colorado and speaks English and French.
Amy uses practical, collaborative sessions that focus on what matters most to each person. She blends cognitive behavioral ideas with acceptance and mindfulness tools so clients can notice thoughts and choose helpful actions.
Background and approach
Sessions aim to build clearer communication, reduce overwhelming feelings, and strengthen self-compassion. Her style is warm and direct. Amy encourages small experiments between meetings so people can test what works in day-to-day life.
She also addresses caregiver stress, attachment concerns, and challenges like guilt, shame, isolation, and control issues. Amy draws on five years of clinical experience and holds LCSW and CSW credentials. She frames work around each person’s goals and values rather than one-size-fits-all solutions.
Therapy conversations include skill practice, reflective exploration, and planning for real-world situations. Many clients come for help with communication problems, forgiveness work, and rebuilding trust after hurt. Amy also supports people navigating narcissistic relationships and the emotional fallout that can follow.
The focus is on steady progress and practical steps that fit daily life.

How Amy Uses ACT, CBT, and Mindfulness Online
Amy draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them. ACT focuses on values and small committed actions, which can help when parenting demands or stress feel overwhelming.She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical behavior changes. CBT often involves clear steps and homework, which translate well to video or text-based work for tracking progress between sessions.
Mindfulness practices are woven into sessions to build steady attention and reduce reactivity. Short in-session practices and brief exercises between meetings help people bring awareness into daily routines and parenting moments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amy collaborates with each person to pick methods that match their goals, needs, and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts techniques as people learn what helps most.
Online therapy offers flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video calls let people use face-to-face time for skill practice and deeper conversation. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging work well for brief check-ins, tracking goals, or short problem-solving between appointments. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into a busy life.
