About Amy

Amy Wright is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people talk through difficult feelings. She offers a calm, non-judgemental space where adults can explore stress, anxiety, relationship worries and self-esteem concerns. Amy works in the United Kingdom and has 14 years of experience in counselling.

Her practice often focuses on common life stresses such as depression, grief and coping with big changes. She also supports people facing addictions and the strain that brings to loved ones. Amy is open and inclusive of LGBT clients and has particular experience supporting people affected by gambling harm.

Sessions are tailored to each person and can be shorter or longer term depending on what feels helpful. Amy prioritises building a trusting relationship and listens closely to what each person wants to achieve. She aims to help people gain clearer insight, name difficult emotions and find ways to move forward.

Over the years Amy has worked with a wide range of issues including family and relationship problems, trauma and abuse, parenting stress and compassion fatigue. She has additional focus on attachment and abandonment concerns, body image, chronic illness and fertility-related distress. Her person-centred base informs all of this work.

How a person-centred approach fits with online therapy

A person-centred approach focuses on listening and understanding the person rather than directing them. It involves building a warm, accepting relationship and allowing people to speak about what matters most to them. This style can help with stress, anxiety, relationship concerns and self-esteem by giving space to reflect and make decisions.

For people worried about addiction, grief or trauma, the same person-centred stance helps by slowly building trust and pacing conversations according to what feels manageable. Amy’s practice emphasises hearing the person’s experience and working at their pace, which can make difficult topics easier to talk about over time.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will ask about needs, goals and preferences and try ways of working that suit the individual. That collaborative decision helps shape whether sessions are brief check-ins or longer discussions.

Session formats are not specified in the original profile, so confirm available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into daily life, for example by saving travel time or allowing a shorter session during a break. It can also suit people who prefer not to be on camera or who need lower-bandwidth options, depending on what is offered. Registered or accredited professionals aim to make sessions practical and relevant to everyday life.
