About Amaris
Amaris Raiana is a counsellor who helps people make sense of difficult feelings and confusing relationships. She listens without judgement and aims to create a calm space where people can say what they need to. Her approach is practical and straightforward, with a focus on small, useful steps that feel manageable.
She has seven years of clinical experience and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Background and approach
Much of her work centres on relationship and intimacy concerns, including communication problems, sexual wellbeing, and feelings of disconnection. She also supports people facing stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, and life changes. Sessions often look at what is happening beneath the surface - patterns that keep repeating, attachment and abandonment worries, or the impact of family of origin issues.
She also helps people navigate specific areas such as addiction, ADHD, parenting strain, carer stress, fertility worries, and difficulties around kink and alternative sex culture. Her manner is warm, honest and down to earth. She aims to meet people where they are and work alongside them to build practical ways forward.
Conversations are intended to be clear and direct, not full of jargon, so clients can use what they learn straight away. Amaris works with people in the United Kingdom and offers sessions in English. People join via a subscription service, complete a short matching questionnaire, and then schedule sessions to suit their needs.

How therapeutic approaches translate to online sessions
Amaris uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on relationships and trauma-related distress. One common approach looks at attachment and patterns in relationships to help people notice recurring dynamics and change them; this can help with intimacy issues, abandonment worries and communication problems. Another approach works with trauma-informed principles to gently track how past harms affect present feelings and behaviours, helping people build safer ways to relate and cope with triggers.Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will work with each person to identify goals, try methods that fit their needs, and adjust as therapy progresses. Clients are encouraged to give feedback so sessions stay useful and relevant.
Online therapy offers practical benefits for people with busy lives. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation without travel, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or text-based messaging suit shorter check-ins or days when writing feels better than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and caregiving duties while keeping continuity of care with registered or accredited professionals.
