About Amy
Amy Seligson is a Licensed Professional Counselor (LPC) in Colorado. She chose this path after personal experience with therapy helped her through her parents' separation. That early experience shaped her goal of helping others find steadier footing during hard transitions.
She has a Master’s in Counseling from Wayne State University and three years of professional experience. Her background includes roles as a special education teacher and as a counselor. Those roles shaped her practical approach and gave her experience supporting young people and parents.
How Amy works
Amy focuses on everyday concerns such as relationships, parenting, anxiety, depression, and stress. She also helps with trauma and abuse, addiction issues, self-esteem, and ADHD. Additional areas she addresses include codependency, divorce and separation, and feelings of emptiness or isolation.
In sessions she aims to listen first and respond to each person’s needs. She uses clear tools from client-centered work and cognitive behavioral methods to help people notice unhelpful patterns and try different ways of coping. Mindfulness and elements of dialectical behavior therapy are used when emotion regulation or grounding skills are helpful.
Amy works with people who want practical steps and steady support during change. She favors short, direct conversations alongside skill-building between sessions. Her approach is warm and straightforward, aimed at helping people find clearer choices and greater self-acceptance.

Approaches to healing in online sessions
Amy commonly uses client-centered work and cognitive behavioral therapy in online sessions. Client-centered work focuses on listening and understanding each person without judgment. It helps people feel heard and decide on goals that matter to them. Cognitive behavioral therapy looks at thoughts and behaviors that keep problems going and teaches concrete skills to shift them.She also draws on dialectical behavior therapy strategies when strong emotions or relationship patterns create repeated problems. DBT skills teach ways to manage intense feelings, improve communication, and tolerate distress. Together these approaches give both support and practical steps to try between sessions. Choosing which approach to use is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, try different tools, and adjust based on what helps most over time.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for a full conversation when visual cues matter. Phone sessions can work when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging are helpful for brief check-ins, skill practice, or fitting a session into a busy day. These options make therapy more flexible and can help people keep consistent work on the issues they want to change.
