I am a licensed professional counselor in Colorado with over 7 years of professional work experience. I have worked with many clients wanting to manage their stress and anxiety as it relates to personal relationships and surrounding the work environment. I also have an extensive background in supporting clients with substance use disorders and other addictions. Taking a harm-reduction approach to this work has empowered my clients to lead self-fulfilling lives. I was also trained by Stephanie Covington, a trauma and abuse researcher and author. This training has allowed me to work with clients on healing without reliving the traumas of the past. Most recently, I have done training around disordered eating and supporting clients in healthy relationships with food and body image.
My therapy style is very integrative and client-centered, I will adjust my practice to meet your needs while also providing education about different aspects of the therapeutic process. I use techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy, person-centered therapy, and humanistic therapy. I truly believe we are on a journey together and that I can support you in accomplishing your goals in an open and safe environment where thoughts and feelings can be shared without fear of judgment.
Taking the first step to sign up for therapy can take courage and I am proud of you for getting started!

These quotes represent just a few of the many positive reviews that we have received for Amy Cooper. We don't pay anyone to provide their review and they are all made voluntarily. Some people's experience receiving therapy with BetterHelp might be different.
I love Amy’s style she is a great listener, offers thoughtful perspectives, and suggests different techniques to make the best progress on the areas important to you.
(I accidentally selected the wrong answer for the first question- meant strongly agree!)

Amy is amazing! I've had 2 sessions with her so far, and after both sessions I felt better just after talking to her. I felt I had a better understanding of what my hang ups are, and the resources and tools she provided were simple and they made a difference!
