Amy Partlow, LCSW, CSW - Therapist in Colorado

About Amy

Amy Partlow is a licensed clinical social worker who helps people facing stress, anxiety, trauma, grief, parenting concerns, and low self-esteem. She speaks English and French and practices from Colorado. Her work is straightforward and practical, aimed at helping parents and adults find clearer ways through hard moments.

Amy draws on several therapy methods to tailor sessions to each person. She uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help clients notice unhelpful thoughts and choose actions that match their values.

Background and approach

She uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to uncover thinking patterns that keep problems going and to replace them with more useful habits. Mindfulness practices are offered to calm the nervous system and improve present-moment coping. Sessions focus on collaboration.

Amy listens closely, helps set manageable goals, and shares steps clients can try between meetings. Conversations are direct but warm, and she encourages practical skills that fit day-to-day life. Her background includes five years of clinical experience and the credentials LCSW and CSW.

The credential details are CO LCSW CSW.09932080 and ID LCSW 8911355. This experience informs an approach that balances care with clear guidance. People who meet with Amy can expect options for how to connect, including video calls, phone sessions, live chat, and text-based messaging.

She uses these formats to make follow-through easier for busy schedules and changing family rhythms.

Practical approaches for online family and parenting support

Amy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people identify what matters to them and take concrete steps toward those values even when thoughts feel overwhelming. This approach can be useful for anxiety, stress, and parenting dilemmas where choosing consistent actions matters more than changing every feeling.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is another main tool she uses to spot unhelpful thinking and shift daily habits. CBT often helps with panic, persistent worry, and improving communication patterns by teaching manageable coping skills.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy treats the choice of method as collaborative - she listens to each person’s goals and gently adjusts techniques to fit their needs and preferences. Clients help shape what’s tried in sessions and what practices are used between meetings.

Online therapy offers practical benefits for busy parents and adults. Video calls let you meet face to face from home, phone sessions give a simple option when screens don’t work, and live chat or text-based messaging support shorter check-ins or notes between appointments. These formats increase flexibility and make it easier to follow through on goals while balancing family and daily demands.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT)

Less about arguing with difficult thoughts, more about loosening their grip and acting on what matters to you anyway. Values and committed action carry the work, which suits conversation at a distance.

Client-Centered Therapy

The direction comes from you rather than from a set programme. The therapist offers a warm, non-judgemental space to think out loud and work at your own pace. Online, this rests on the relationship rather than on being in the same room.

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT)

CBT looks at the link between what you think, how you feel, and what you do. You work on noticing unhelpful patterns and practising steadier responses. It suits online sessions well, because much of the work happens between appointments and can be talked through from anywhere.
