About Amie

Amie Coates is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who aims to help people manage stress, anxiety, grief and low self-esteem. She has a straightforward style and focuses on practical ways to make daily life feel calmer. She works in English and brings 17 years of experience to her sessions.

Amie is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which is shown as BACP. Amie often combines simple, evidence-informed tools with a warm, listening approach.

Background and approach

She encourages people to set small, steady goals and to notice what changes help in real life. That might include learning ways to reduce worry, working through painful losses, or building more confidence after difficult experiences. Her background includes independent practice and work supporting charities and educational settings.

This variety means she is used to helping people with different day-to-day pressures and life transitions. She has supported issues such as adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, and family problems. Amie uses client-focused conversations alongside elements of cognitive behavioural work and emotionally-focused ways of looking at relationships and feelings.

Sessions are shaped to fit the person in front of her, and plans are adjusted as people progress. People who contact Amie can expect a calm, respectful space to talk and try practical steps. She aims to help people find clearer ways to manage emotions, cope with pain or illness, and navigate change.

The emphasis is on small, achievable progress rather than quick fixes.

Therapeutic approaches and online support

Amie commonly draws on client-centred work, cognitive behavioural techniques and emotionally-focused ideas in online sessions. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and working at the client’s pace so people can use their own strengths to make changes. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) offers practical exercises to spot and change unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours, which can help with anxiety and low mood. Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) looks at how emotions shape close relationships and helps people express and reframe strong feelings in ways that improve connection.

Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Amie will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and then shape an approach together. This collaborative process means the plan can change as needs become clearer and progress is made.

Online sessions offer flexibility for people with busy lives or limited local options. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation across distance, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or times when writing feels more comfortable. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, caregiving or medical needs while keeping the focus on practical, achievable steps.
