Amy Pickett-Williams, LCSW has been providing psychotherapeutic services in Denver for over 20 years. She graduated from Pacific Lutheran University with a Bachelor of Arts in Social Work in 1997, and earned the Master of Social Work degree from the University of Denver in 1999. She is also a yoga teacher (RYT 200), with a certificate in integrative somatic trauma therapy. She worked in both pediatric and adult medical settings, including hematology/oncology, medically complex children, emergency trauma and hospice. 

For 8 years, she worked at a school and community-based medical clinic providing psychotherapy to all ages – children, adolescents, women with pregnancy/post-partum challenges, couples and families.  At this site, she served many children and adolescents with unique learning needs and enjoyed the integrated approach linking the child, family, school and clinic.  She provided consultation for school and medical staff and supervised graduate level students. Before the birth of her third child (who is now ten years old), she resumed working in private practice.  A majority of her clients are referrals from pediatric offices, OB/GYN offices and both private and public schools.  

Her specialty areas include work with grief and loss, chronic and terminal illness, depression/anxiety, ADD/ADHD, gifted and twice exceptional children, trauma, abuse, infertility, post-partum mood disorders, divorce/children of divorce, play therapy, art therapy and family and couples therapy.  Her therapeutic modality varies among clients, but always comes from a strengths based/empowerment approach.
