About Amy

Amy Griffiths is a counsellor with five years' experience supporting people through difficult moments. She meets clients with warmth and compassion and listens without judgement. Many come when they feel raw, confused or isolated and need space to make sense of their emotions.

She focuses on helping individuals who are adjusting to change or facing ongoing stress. That includes people managing anxiety, grief, relationship concerns or struggles with self-esteem and sleep. There is also attention to issues linked to neurodiversity and gender identity, and to the impact these can have on daily life and relationships.

Amy works in a person-centred way, which means she follows the person’s agenda and helps them explore what matters most. Sessions are a place to talk openly about feelings and thoughts, with the counsellor guiding understanding rather than giving instructions.

Mindfulness approaches are used alongside the person-centred style to help people notice what is happening in the moment. These methods are often helpful for anxiety, stress and problems with sleep because they encourage small, practical ways to respond to difficult thoughts.

People come for a wide range of concerns, from coping with life transitions to dealing with addiction, compassion fatigue or career stress. Amy also supports those facing bereavement, end-of-life matters and long-term health challenges. Her work aims to help people find clearer thinking and kinder ways of relating to themselves as they make change.

Sessions are offered in English and she works from the United Kingdom. If you want to explore whether her approach fits your situation, use the Start Therapy process to match and book a first appointment.

Person-centred and mindfulness approaches online

Amy draws on person-centred counselling, which puts the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps the person name and understand feelings. This style is helpful for people trying to make sense of life changes, low mood or relationship worries.

She also uses mindfulness-based methods to support noticing thoughts and bodily reactions without getting overwhelmed. These simple practices can help with anxiety, sleep problems and stress by offering small, repeatable ways to respond differently to difficult moments.

Finding the right approach is part of the process and will be decided together. The therapist will work with the person's goals and preferences, checking what helps and adjusting the way sessions are used over time. This collaborative stance means plans can change as needs evolve.

Many people appreciate online sessions for fitting therapy into a busy day, avoiding travel and making shorter check-ins easier to arrange. If you need advice on how a particular format might suit your routine, raise this when you complete the matching questionnaire and schedule your first appointment.
