About Amy
Amy Murray welcomes people who are feeling overwhelmed, stuck or struggling to cope. She aims to make first steps easier to take and offers steady support while someone finds their feet again. Amy works from a straightforward style.
She invites people to talk about stress, anxiety, low mood, grief and relationship concerns in a calm, non-judgemental way. Sessions focus on what the person wants to change and practical steps that can help in day-to-day life.
Background and approach
She has five years of professional experience and is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That background informs how she plans sessions and sets realistic goals with each person. Typical conversations cover self-esteem, motivation, coping with life changes, compassion fatigue and work-related stress.
Amy also helps people who are dealing with trauma and abuse, anger, bipolar mood challenges, ADHD and issues linked to adoption, attachment or separation. Her approach is collaborative. She listens first, then works with the person to identify useful strategies and small experiments to try between sessions.
Practical tools and clear goals are used alongside emotional support. Amy offers sessions in English and works with international clients. She provides a range of online formats so people can pick what suits their routine and comfort.

Approaches you can use online with a counsellor
Amy uses evidence-based techniques that focus on practical change and emotional understanding. One common approach helps people notice unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with more useful thoughts. This can reduce anxiety and lift low mood by changing how situations are interpreted.Another strand concentrates on coping skills and behavioural experiments. Sessions may include planning small, achievable tasks to try between meetings and reviewing what worked. This approach is helpful for building confidence, improving routines and managing stress or anger.
Finding the right mix of approaches is part of the work. Amy collaborates with each person to choose methods that match their needs, goals and preferences, and adjusts over time as things change.
Online therapy offers practical flexibility. Video calls let people have a full face-to-face conversation from wherever they are, while phone sessions can suit those with limited bandwidth or who prefer not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging provide shorter check-ins or a way to keep working between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare or travel and to continue support when routines shift.
