Amy Murray is a counsellor who focuses on helping people cope with stress, anxiety and low mood. She supports those facing grief, relationship strain, work pressure and changes that feel overwhelming. Amy aims to make the first step easier and offers calm, non-judgemental support.

Amy uses straightforward conversations to help people sort through upsetting thoughts and feelings. She encourages practical steps alongside reflection so clients can notice small changes in day-to-day life.

Background and approach

Sessions are collaborative - she listens, asks useful questions, and helps clients set achievable goals. With five years of professional experience she has worked with a broad range of concerns, including anger, self-esteem, bipolar mood issues and challenges linked to ADHD. She also offers help for people dealing with caregiving stress, body image, attachment and separation or divorce.

Amy is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration means she follows a recognised professional framework in the UK. She offers sessions in English and accepts international clients.

Therapy can include problem-focused work such as coping strategies, alongside space to process difficult feelings. Sessions aim to leave people feeling better able to manage their lives, whether that means restoring confidence, managing anxiety, or navigating big life changes.

Therapeutic approaches and how online sessions help

Amy uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that combine practical coping strategies with emotional work. One common approach focuses on building coping skills for anxiety and stress, teaching breathing, pacing and thought-challenging techniques to manage day-to-day symptoms. Another strand emphasises processing loss and grief by creating space to tell your story and identify ways to remember and adjust to change.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amy will discuss different methods in the first sessions and make adjustments as goals and needs become clearer. This collaborative process helps tailor sessions to each person's priorities and comfort level.

Online therapy offers flexibility for busy or geographically distant people. Video calls let you work face to face when talking and non-verbal cues matter. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and text-based messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing reflections between sessions, or when typing feels easier than speaking. Registered or accredited professionals can deliver effective therapy through these formats, making it simpler to fit support into everyday life.
