About Amy
Amy Wright uses a person-centred approach to help people talk through the issues that brought them to counselling. She is based in the United Kingdom and has 14 years of experience in the counselling field. Amy describes her work as empathic and non-judgemental, and she offers one-to-one counselling for adults aged 18 and above.
Her counselling focuses on understanding what matters to each person. She helps people explore anxiety, depression, stress, self-esteem and relationship concerns.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with grief, trauma and major life changes, as well as those affected by addictions and perimenopause or menopause related worries. Amy has particular experience supporting people affected by problematic gambling and their loved ones, drawn from more than ten years working in that area.
She is LGBTQ+ inclusive and aims to build an equal, trusting relationship with each person she sees. Sessions are commonly open-ended but can be adapted to short or long term work depending on individual needs. Her practice pays attention to family of origin issues, attachment and abandonment concerns, and the practical strain on caregivers.
She also addresses body image, fertility and fatherhood issues, chronic illness, and the guilt or shame that can come with difficult life events. The goal is to help people gain insight, make sense of feelings and find ways forward.
If someone feels Amy might be a good fit, they are invited to start the process via the site and complete the short matching questionnaire to arrange sessions.

How Amy works online
In sessions she offers a warm, accepting presence and works at the client's pace. That collaborative stance helps identify goals and the kind of support that feels most useful. Together they decide whether short term or longer term counselling is the right path for the person's needs.
If you are considering online counselling, check the session options before booking to confirm what formats are offered. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy life, reduce travel time and allow regular check-ins from different locations. It can also suit people who prefer not to use video for every meeting, depending on the session choices available. The therapist will help match approach and practical arrangements so sessions fit around your goals and everyday routine.
