Amy Moreno LPC, EMDR-C
Once upon a time, I was a hot mess of a human.
At the age of 41, I hit absolute rock bottom after a brutal divorce, unprocessed grief from my dad’s death at nine, and a PTSD diagnosis that cracked my life wide open. What came next was nothing short of a full-blown reconstruction of my identity. People kept telling me, “You aren’t broken” but I WAS. I made peace with my broken self and rebuilt myself with intention, part by part. This was one of the most difficult periods of my life and it took time, and a lot of therapy, to get to where I am now. I love who I am; my past and my trauma are a part of that and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
I am the founder of Rebuilding Together Counseling, a private practice in Lakewood, Colorado built not just on theory, but on real-life experience with trauma, grief, self-worth, and rebirth. As a counselor, a certified EMDR therapist, and a woman who has walked through hell and come out on the other side, I understand what it is like to fall apart and have to scramble to figure out who you are. It is now my mission to show up as my whole, messy, authentic self.
Every. Single. Day.
I work with women (and fellow therapists!) who are ready to tear down the walls, internal and external, that keep you small. I want you to look in the mirror, throw off the shame, the doubt, the lack of self-esteem and finally shout, “I deserve to be seen. I deserve to be loved. I deserve to take up space.”
That’s not just therapy, that’s a revolution.

I specialize in trauma, grief, self-esteem, and deep empowerment work. My approach weaves together EMDR, DBT, IFS, and other trauma-informed models to help you get to the core of who you truly are.
I especially love working with other therapists because yes, we need support too. This is sacred work, and it’s okay to need someone who understands both sides of the couch.

Clinicians navigating their own healing.
Women exploring later-in-life identity shifts, life outside of being a mother, divorce, etc.
Women healing from complex trauma or attachment wounds, childhood trauma, current trauma, etc.
Women wanting how to learn to set boundaries and do the deep-self work.

This isn’t just a practice, it’s a purpose. I went back to grad school at 43, as a single mom, because I had to find a career that was meaningful to me that would also pay the bills. I launched this business in the middle of real life: Covid, perimenopause, parenting pre-teens, supporting a child with an eating disorder, and navigating a blended family of five neurodivergent humans and four needy rescue dogs. Through it all, I built something powerful, a business that helps change lives, including my own.
My practice is rooted in radical honesty, deep empathy, fierce vulnerability, and a whole lot of swearing. I believe that you can be both falling apart and rising strong and I’m here for all of it.
Come meet me; I am really fucking good at what I do.

When I’m not holding space for others, I’m probably:
Tending (or neglecting) my gazillions of houseplants
Completely reinventing this website depending on my mood
Rearranging furniture, or hunting for treasures at the thrift store
Binge watching ridiculous shows with my husband, our kids, and the dogs
