About Amy
Amy Marshall offers direct, practical help for people feeling overwhelmed by stress, sleep problems, anxiety or major life changes. She works in a calm, client-centred way and focuses on what each person needs right now. Amy is a BACP member which means she follows the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy framework. She has 12 years of experience supporting people through low mood, relationship pain, grief, addiction and a wide range of other concerns.
In sessions she listens closely and helps people name what is getting in the way of better rest and daily functioning. Amy draws on an integrative approach, combining different methods to match each person. She uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, among other approaches, to look at how thoughts, feelings and actions interact.
Her style is straightforward and collaborative. Clients can expect to talk through recent problems, spot patterns that affect sleep and mood, and try small, manageable changes between sessions. The work often links practical routines with emotional understanding.
Amy also attends to longer standing issues such as attachment and life meaning, using attachment-based and existential perspectives when relevant. She adapts the pace to the person and aims to help people build steadier routines and clearer thinking.
Overall, Amy focuses on helping people find ways to rest better, manage stress and move forward with more confidence and choice.
Approaches in online counselling and how they help
Amy commonly draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and can help with anxiety, sleep problems and low mood by testing unhelpful thoughts and trying small behavioural changes. Attachment-based work focuses on patterns in close relationships and can be useful when early relationship wounds affect current stress or intimacy. Client-centred therapy gives space for people to tell their story while the therapist follows their lead and helps them find their own solutions.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will talk through what feels most useful and adapt methods as goals and needs become clearer. This is a collaborative process where the person and therapist agree what to try and review progress together.
Confirm the available session formats before booking because the biography does not list specific online or in-person options. Online therapy can make it easier to fit counselling around everyday life by reducing travel time, allowing a quieter check-in during a lunch break, or offering shorter discussions when needed. Many people find that a mix of talking and practical homework transfers well to remote sessions and helps with routines, sleep and stress management.
