Amaris Raiana, BACP

Amaris Raiana helps people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure about their relationships and emotional lives. She writes in plain, direct terms and aims to create a non-judgemental space where clients can talk honestly about what is happening. Her approach is warm and down to earth, and she focuses on practical steps that feel manageable in day-to-day life.

Amaris has seven years of experience and holds BACP registration, which is listed as BACP. She offers support for relationship and intimacy concerns, including communication breakdowns, feeling disconnected, and sexual wellbeing. She also assists people facing stress, anxiety, depression, grief, addiction-related concerns, and challenges with self-esteem and life changes.

Her practice includes work around attachment and abandonment issues, codependency and commitment worries, plus specific areas such as BDSM, kink and alternative sex culture. She also supports those dealing with caregiver strain, fatherhood questions, fertility concerns and family of origin problems. The focus is on understanding what lies beneath the presenting struggle and finding realistic ways forward.

Sessions use plain language and aim to be collaborative. Amaris helps clients notice patterns, try small changes and build coping strategies that fit their lives. She explains ideas clearly and checks in about what feels useful as therapy progresses.

Amaris sees clients in the United Kingdom and runs sessions in English. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, and works through a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Practical approaches and online support

Amaris works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on relationships and emotion regulation. One common approach she uses helps people understand attachment and abandonment patterns - it looks at how early relationships shape current expectations and reactions, and it helps with communication and closeness issues. Another frequent focus is practical coping and skills-based work that targets stress, anxiety and mood; this involves learning concrete strategies to manage symptoms and test small changes in daily life.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with the client about goals, preferences and what feels most helpful, and then try methods together rather than imposing a single path. That way the work evolves as needs change and progress becomes measurable.

Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow for face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can fit into a short break and need less bandwidth, while live chat or text-based messaging give a way to check in between sessions or for those who prefer writing. These options make it easier to keep therapy going around work, childcare and daily life.
