About Amy

Amy Wright is a counsellor who uses a person-centred approach to help people talk through what’s brought them to therapy. She has 14 years of experience and works with adults aged 18 and above. Amy aims to create a calm space where people can explore their feelings and decide on changes at their own pace.

She commonly supports people dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps with relationship and family issues, self-esteem and navigating big life changes such as bereavement or fertility challenges. Amy is LGBTQ+ inclusive and has particular experience with problematic gambling and with supporting affected loved ones.

Amy describes her work as collaborative and non-judgemental. Sessions are usually open-ended but can be shorter term when that suits someone’s situation. She focuses on building an equal and trusting relationship so people feel able to talk honestly about difficult subjects.

Her person-centred style means the conversation is guided by the client’s priorities rather than a fixed programme. That approach is often useful for working through attachment or abandonment concerns, forgiveness, guilt and shame, and for learning how to manage chronic pain, illness or caregiving stress.

People who come for counselling with Amy can expect to explore practical ways to cope day to day, reflect on family of origin patterns, and work on commitment or control issues. If her way of working sounds helpful, the next step is to select Start Therapy and complete the short matching questionnaire to book.

How a person-centred approach works online

Amy works from a person-centred perspective that places the client’s concerns at the centre of each session. This approach focuses on empathy, active listening and helping people find their own solutions, which can be helpful for issues such as anxiety, depression, relationship strains and self-esteem.

She also draws on simple practical conversations to address specific problems like gambling harm, caregiving stress, or managing life changes. Those discussions tend to be led by what the person brings and aim to identify steps that feel doable in everyday life.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Amy will work collaboratively to decide what feels most useful for your goals and preferences, and she can adapt the pace and focus as you go. The choice of methods is guided by what you need rather than a fixed plan.

Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling around work or family routines, reduce travel time and allow brief check-ins when a shorter appointment is needed. Registered or accredited professionals can offer online sessions that help people make steady progress while fitting therapy into busy lives.
