About Amy

Amy Griffiths is a counsellor who works with people feeling overwhelmed, confused or isolated. She draws on five years' experience and a BACP credential to offer steady, non-judgemental support. Many come to her with anxiety, stress, grief or trouble sleeping and she listens to what feels most urgent for each person.

She uses a person-centred way of working that keeps the client's experience at the heart of each session. That means conversations focus on the person's feelings and priorities rather than a fixed agenda. Sessions make space for hard topics, searching questions and emotional reactions without criticism.

Amy also uses mindfulness-based ideas to help people notice thoughts and bodily sensations. These techniques can be useful when anxiety, sleeplessness or chronic stress make it hard to pause and think clearly. She explains practices simply and helps clients try them in ways that fit day-to-day life.

People bring a wide range of issues including ADHD, trauma, relationship struggles, addiction, depression and compassion fatigue. She also supports those navigating gender identity and neurodiversity-related concerns, and works with lifecourse issues such as ageing and end-of-life matters.

Amy offers sessions in English from the United Kingdom and accepts international clients. If someone wants to start, they use the site Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule according to availability.

How Amy uses person-centred and mindfulness approaches online

Amy draws on two main approaches in her work. Person-centred therapy focuses on listening without judgement and following the client’s lead. It helps when someone needs space to make sense of feelings and decide what matters most to them.

Mindfulness therapy involves simple exercises to notice thoughts, body sensations and breathing. These practices can reduce reactivity and support better sleep, lower anxiety and steadier mood when used alongside talking work.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amy will work together with each person to decide which methods fit their needs, goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as people try techniques and see what helps.

Session formats are not specified in the supplied biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around daily life, such as shorter check-ins at lunch, avoiding travel time or choosing quieter surroundings. It can also help people practise mindfulness between meetings and maintain continuity when life circumstances change.
