Amaris Raiana , BACP

Amaris Raiana is a counsellor who helps people untangle difficult feelings around relationships, intimacy and daily life. She welcomes straightforward conversation and aims to create a calm space with no judgement. Her style is warm, honest and down to earth, and she works alongside people to find manageable next steps.

Amaris has seven years of experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She often supports people facing anxiety, stress and depression, and those coping with grief or major life changes. She also helps with relationship strains, intimacy-related concerns and sexual wellbeing issues.

Her practice covers a wide range of challenges, including issues linked to attachment, abandonment, and communication problems. She also addresses complex areas such as addictions, compassion fatigue, ADHD, eating and sleeping difficulties, and concerns connected to fertility and fatherhood.

Sessions are practical and paced to each person. Amaris aims to uncover what is happening beneath the surface and then work on realistic steps forward. Conversations may include exploring patterns in relationships, communication skills, and ways to manage intense emotions.

People who prefer a straightforward, non-judgemental approach tend to find her helpful. If someone wants a therapist who listens, asks clear questions, and helps shape achievable goals, Amaris offers that kind of support.

Practical approaches for online relationship and wellbeing work

Amaris uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people with relationships, intimacy and emotional distress. One approach focuses on identifying patterns in how people relate to others and respond to stress; this helps make sense of why communication breaks down and what small changes can improve connection. Another method works on regulating emotions and building coping skills, which is useful for anxiety, anger and overwhelming feelings.

Working out which approach fits best is part of the therapy process. The therapist and client will assess needs, goals and preferences together and try methods that suit the person. That collaborative style helps tailor sessions so work feels relevant and manageable.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people use visual cues to strengthen connection, while phone sessions can be quicker to arrange and use less bandwidth. Live chat and messaging are useful for short check-ins or people who prefer to write rather than speak. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments, and to maintain consistency over time.
