Amy Wright, BACP

Amy Wright is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. She offers a person-centred approach that helps people talk through what has brought them to counselling and decide where they want to go next. Amy works with adults aged 18 and above and aims to make the first steps feel less daunting.

Her practice focuses on common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, grief, relationship and family problems, and parenting strains. She also supports people facing life changes, addiction-related difficulties, trauma and abuse, and compassion fatigue. Amy is inclusive of LGBT clients and has particular experience supporting those affected by problematic gambling and their loved ones.

In sessions she emphasises an equal, trusting relationship. The work is guided by the client’s aims, using listening and reflective conversation to build insight. Counselling can be open-ended or time-limited, depending on what an individual needs.

Amy also addresses related issues like attachment and abandonment worries, body image, chronic illness and disability, fertility and fatherhood concerns, and family of origin patterns. She aims to help people discover their own ways to manage and move forward.

If someone thinks Amy might be a good fit they are invited to start the process by completing the initial matching steps and arranging sessions according to her availability.

How person-centred work translates to online therapy

Amy uses Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on building a respectful, non-judgemental relationship. The therapist listens closely, reflects what she hears, and helps people explore their feelings and choices. This approach can be helpful for anxiety, depression, relationship concerns and navigating big life changes.

The aim is to work at the clients pace and follow their priorities. Amy will collaborate with each person to agree how the work proceeds, adjusting length and focus as needs change. Finding the right approach is part of the process and is decided together based on goals and preferences.

Practical benefits of online work make it easier to fit counselling into busy lives. Please confirm current session options before booking, as formats are not specified here. Online sessions can reduce travel time, allow a shorter check-in when that helps, or remove the need to be on camera if someone prefers. Registered or accredited professionals often use these options to help people keep therapy manageable alongside other responsibilities.
