About Amie
Amie Schuman is a licensed clinical social worker in Colorado with ten years of experience in mental health care. She focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, eating concerns, low self-esteem, and depression. Amie also supports people facing life changes and decisions that feel overwhelming.
She approaches work with the belief that each person knows their own story and brings strengths to the work. Amie aims to build on those strengths and to offer steady support while people try new ways of coping.
Background and approach
Sessions are practical and straightforward, centered on what matters most to the individual. Amie has worked with people struggling with body image, feelings of guilt and shame, isolation or loneliness, and questions about life purpose. She also has experience supporting those dealing with divorce and separation, mood disorders, social anxiety and phobia, and women's issues.
Her decade of practice gives her a broad base of experience to draw from. In sessions she listens first and then helps set small, manageable goals. She uses approaches that focus on real-life skills and on making daily life feel more manageable.
Amie encourages steady steps rather than sudden overhauls. People are invited to bring whatever feels most pressing, whether that is a specific symptom or a general sense of being stuck. Amie works to create a supportive setting where progress is measured in practical changes and renewed confidence.
Approaches and how online sessions support change
Amie uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on building practical skills and changing everyday patterns. One common approach emphasizes developing coping skills for anxiety and mood concerns - learning short breathing and grounding techniques, testing out small behavioral changes, and tracking what helps most. Another approach focuses on improving body image and self-esteem by identifying critical self-talk and practicing new ways of relating to the body and to difficult thoughts.Choosing a method is a team effort. The therapist will talk with the person about symptoms, goals, and preferences and then try an approach that fits. If something does not feel right, the plan can be adjusted together until it feels useful.
Online work can make therapy easier to fit into a busy life. Video calls let people meet face-to-face from different places. Phone sessions can be simpler when video is not needed. Live chat or text-based messaging offer brief check-ins, written reflections, and ongoing contact between calls. These options give flexibility for scheduling, shorter check-ins during a break, or staying connected when travel makes in-person visits difficult.
