Amy Marshall, BACP

Amy Marshall is a BACP counsellor with 12 years' experience who helps people tackle worry, low mood, relationship strains and the daily habits that make life harder. She works in a calm, respectful way and focuses on practical steps people can try between sessions. Amy pays close attention to thoughts and everyday habits that keep problems cycling. Her approach is flexible and draws on several therapy styles so sessions fit the person rather than the other way round. Amy uses client-centred listening to help people feel heard, and she often brings in cognitive behavioural ideas to look at how thoughts, feelings and actions link together. She also uses attachment-based thinking when relationships and early experiences matter. Sessions are tailored to the issue at hand, whether that is anxiety, depression, grief, addiction concerns, anger or life changes. Amy also supports people facing chronic illness, caregiver stress, parenting strain, body image worries and work-related pressures. She gives clear, simple techniques alongside time to talk things through. Amy is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP. She works in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. Her way of working aims to help people build resilience and make steady change at a pace that feels right. To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. Costs vary with location and the service uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Amy uses different approaches in online therapy

Amy commonly blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural ideas. Client-centred therapy focuses on listening, acceptance and helping people find their own solutions; it suits people who need space to understand their feelings. Cognitive behavioural therapy looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical tools to change unhelpful habits and reduce anxiety or low mood. She also draws on attachment-based ideas when relationships or early experiences are relevant. This approach considers patterns in close relationships and helps people understand how those patterns affect current connections and emotional reactions. Finding the best approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most useful, and then adapt methods as therapy progresses. That collaborative process helps make sessions relevant and practical. The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the current options before booking. One practical advantage of online or remote sessions is fitting therapy into a busy life - for example arranging appointments around work or caregiving, or choosing shorter check-ins when needed. Another benefit is that some people find it easier to focus without travelling, or can use lower-bandwidth options if a video call is difficult. Registered and accredited professionals can offer these flexible ways of meeting while helping you apply therapeutic tools between sessions.
