About Amy
Amy uses simple, practical conversation to help people notice what’s getting in the way. She listens without judgement and follows the client’s pace rather than rushing to fix things. That approach can help with stress, low self-esteem, and relationship worries.
She also supports people facing the effects of trauma and abuse, addictive behaviours, and major life changes. Amy includes techniques drawn from cognitive behavioural therapy to help manage difficult thoughts and habits. Mindfulness practices are offered to build calm and present-moment focus.
Motivational interviewing is used when people want to change habits but feel unsure where to start. Solution-focused ideas help set clear, manageable goals and track progress. Together these methods aim to make sessions practical and outcome-oriented.
Amy has five years of experience working with a broad range of concerns, including grief, body image, communication problems, and issues linked to aging or illness. Sessions are carried out in English and take place online by video, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and appointments are arranged according to therapist availability.

How her approaches work online
Amy blends person-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques to make online therapy practical and responsive. Person-centred therapy means conversations focus on the client’s priorities and values while the counsellor listens and reflects. Cognitive behavioural therapy offers clear steps to notice patterns of thinking and test new ways of responding, which can help with anxiety and unhelpful habits.She also draws on mindfulness to teach short practices that bring attention back to the present moment and reduce rumination. These practices are simple to do between sessions and can fit into a busy day. Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the process; Amy works collaboratively to decide what feels most useful based on a person’s needs, goals, and preferences.
Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, giving flexibility for different lifestyles. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat is useful for shorter check-ins, and messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy into work, family life, or other commitments while keeping the focus on practical progress.
