About Amy

Amy Wright is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. She works one-to-one with adults and lists stress, anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem, depression, grief and guilt and shame among her areas of focus.

Amy uses a person-centred approach, often called Client-Centred Therapy, which keeps the conversation focused on the person sitting in front of her. She aims to help people talk through what brought them to counselling and to identify the changes they want to make.

Over her career she has supported people through major life changes, bereavement, trauma and family and relationship problems. She has more than ten years of experience dealing specifically with problematic gambling and the impact it has on both the person gambling and their loved ones. She also describes her practice as inclusive of LGBT people.

Amy offers mostly open-ended counselling but can be flexible about short-term work when that fits a person’s goals. Sessions are one-to-one for adults aged 18 and above. She frames the work around building a trusting relationship and helping clients find their own ways to resolve the issues that are affecting their day-to-day life.

To begin, clients are asked to use the site process to match and schedule a first session. Amy encourages people to check the online options and complete a short questionnaire before booking a session.

Client-Centred practice and online counselling

Amy works from a Client-Centred model, which means sessions focus on the client's own perspective. The counsellor listens to what matters to the person, reflects it back and helps them make sense of their feelings. This approach is often useful for worries about shame, guilt, identity and relationship problems because it keeps attention on the client's experience rather than on labels.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amy will discuss how Client-Centred ways of working fit your goals and adapt the pace and length of sessions to what you prefer. That collaborative planning helps decide whether to aim for shorter or longer term work.

The biography does not specify particular online formats, so confirm the session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, appointments or childcare and can reduce travel time. It can also allow for shorter check-ins when life is busy or for conversations without video when bandwidth is limited. Therapists and registered or accredited professionals commonly work with clients this way to help integrate therapy into everyday life.
