About Mallory
Mallory Dee Armstrong is a licensed clinical social worker who centers her work on addiction and mental health. She draws on a trauma-informed, empowerment-focused approach to help people make lasting changes. Mallory emphasizes practical steps and partnership in therapy so clients can build new patterns in their lives.
She often supports people dealing with addiction, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, parenting stress, and low self-esteem. Her practice also addresses attachment issues, blended family challenges, body image concerns, co-morbidity, codependency, communication problems, and related struggles.
Background and approach
Mallory brings six years of clinical experience to her work as an LCSW, CSW in Colorado. In sessions she aims to notice recurring life patterns and then work with each person to shift those cycles. Conversations are focused and goal-oriented, often breaking larger problems into small, manageable steps.
She uses straightforward guidance and collaborative planning to make progress feel doable. Mallory names queer and BIPOC liberation as important influences on her perspective. That means she pays attention to systems and identity factors that affect well-being and recovery.
She supports people who want care that respects those lived experiences. Her approach is practical and rooted in real-world change. People who reach out can expect a partner who listens, points out patterns, and helps map alternative choices.

Evidence-informed approaches and online care
Mallory uses trauma-informed and empowerment-based techniques to guide her work. A trauma-informed approach means noticing how past harm affects present reactions and then creating steps to reduce retraumatizing patterns. This can help people who have experienced abuse, domestic violence, or repeated stressful events.She also emphasizes empowerment-focused work, which centers a person's strengths and choices. That approach helps people who want to break cycles of addiction, improve relationship responses, or build healthier parenting habits by setting small, achievable goals.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Mallory collaborates with each person to determine which techniques fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She will adjust methods over time based on what is helping and what feels workable for daily life.
