About Amelia
She works with a wide range of concerns including trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and mood disorders such as depression and bipolar. She also supports people facing relationship difficulties, addictions, and issues around intimacy and communication. Midlife crisis and questions about life purpose are among the areas she often helps people navigate.
Amelia draws on approaches that centre the person in the room and emphasise relationships and present-moment awareness. Sessions are practical and focused on small, manageable steps that build confidence. She encourages people to notice what’s already working and use those strengths to tackle difficult moments.
Her style is warm and compassionate and she aims to make the first contact less daunting. Amelia listens closely and adapts conversations to each person’s pace and needs. She invites people to say what they hope to get from counselling and to try different ways of working until something fits.
People can expect straightforward talk, gentle reflection and help to translate insight into day-to-day changes. This approach supports coping with sleep and eating struggles, anger, parenting stress, burnout and longer-term patterns such as attachment difficulties.

Therapeutic approaches and how they work online
Attachment-Based Therapy emphasises the effects of early relationships on current patterns. It looks at how connection and trust shape reactions to stress and helps people understand and change unhelpful relationship patterns. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours. It helps people spot unhelpful thinking, test new ideas and build practical skills to manage anxiety, low mood and compulsive behaviours.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amelia will discuss goals, past experiences and what feels comfortable, then together decide which methods to try first. This is a collaborative process and adjustments are made as progress is reviewed.
If you are considering online therapy, please confirm the available session options before booking. In general, online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules demand it. It also makes it simpler to attend from different locations when needed. Discuss practical arrangements and session length with the therapist when you schedule so appointments can suit your routine.
