Amie is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has five years of experience supporting people through worry, bereavement and work-related strain. Her background also includes work with issues connected to adoption and foster care, attachment difficulties, body image, and caregiving stress.

She brings attachment-based understanding to relationships and patterns of connection. She also uses client-centred principles to keep sessions focused on the person’s pace and priorities.

Sessions are collaborative and practical. Amie aims to help people identify manageable steps, build coping skills, and find ways to manage ongoing symptoms. She encourages mindfulness practices when they fit the client’s preferences.

People who choose Amie can expect straightforward language and calm support. She values the strengths people already have and works alongside them to make changes that feel achievable.

How Amie’s approaches work online

Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current patterns. It helps people understand why they connect or withdraw in relationships and is useful for relationship stress and attachment concerns. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing them with practical experiments. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and stress and helps build new thinking and coping habits. Client-centred therapy puts the person’s perspective at the heart of the session, offering empathy and a steady focus on what matters most to the client.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Amie will listen to what matters to the client, discuss options, and agree together on which techniques to try first. This collaboration means the method can change as goals and needs evolve.

Online sessions give practical flexibility. Video calls let people use facial cues and full conversation when that is helpful. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text-based messaging allow brief check-ins, ongoing reflection between sessions, or a lower-intensity way to share what’s on your mind. These formats make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and medical commitments, and to maintain continuity when life is busy.
