About Mallory
Mallory Dee Armstrong is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) practicing in Colorado with six years of experience. She focuses on addictions, relationship challenges, trauma and abuse, parenting concerns, and self-esteem. Mallory works with people who notice repeating patterns that cause distress and wants to help them find clearer choices.
Mallory describes her work as trauma-informed and grounded in empowerment. She aims to identify the patterns that keep people stuck and to help them build different habits and responses. Sessions are practical and focused on what someone can do between meetings to feel more in control of their reactions.
She brings attention to attachment and communication problems, and also addresses issues like codependency, substance use, domestic violence, and dissociation as they appear in someone's life. Mallory pays attention to how identity and marginalization affect mental health and decision making.
In conversation she helps people name painful feelings like guilt, shame, or impulsivity and then tries concrete ways to reduce their impact. She also supports people dealing with divorce, blended family complications, and parenting strains by focusing on manageable steps forward.
Mallory offers care in English and practices across a range of behavioral health concerns. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is used and a first session is scheduled so practical goals and next steps can be agreed on.
How sessions work
How therapeutic approaches translate to online work
Many of the evidence-based techniques Mallory uses focus on recognizing patterns and building new responses. One common technique involves skills training to manage strong emotions and impulsive reactions; that helps when someone struggles with substance use, shame, or sudden outbursts. Another approach centers on trauma-informed care, which looks at how past harm affects current behavior and helps people develop safer ways to respond in relationships.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Mallory collaborates with each person to decide which techniques fit their goals, needs, and comfort level. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan if a method isn't working or if priorities change.
Practical benefits of online sessions include fitting therapy into a busy schedule and reducing travel time so it is easier to keep appointments. If you plan to try online work, confirm available session formats before booking since session options are set by the practice. The process begins with a short matching questionnaire and scheduling a first session, where practical steps and appointment details are clarified.
