About Amy

Amy Griffiths is a BACP counsellor who aims to make difficult feelings easier to talk about. She speaks plainly and offers a calm, non-judgemental space for people who feel anxious, overwhelmed or unsure. Her style is warm and compassionate and she focuses on helping people make sense of what they are experiencing.

Amy spends time listening closely to what matters most to each person. She uses a client-centred approach so sessions follow the person's priorities and pace.

Background and approach

Mindfulness techniques are available to help with stress, sleep and managing intense emotions. She has five years' experience supporting people through trauma and abuse, grief and loss, and major life changes. Amy also works with concerns such as addiction, relationship and intimacy difficulties, self-esteem, and compassion fatigue.

She can help people who are exploring gender dysphoria or who identify as LGBT. Additionally she supports those dealing with ageing and geriatric concerns, autism and Asperger syndrome, caregiver stress, cancer and hospice related matters, and the strain that can come from first responder roles. She hears clients who feel empty, guilty, ashamed or stuck after separation or infidelity.

Amy offers practical ideas alongside reflective listening. Sessions often include gentle mindfulness exercises, time to name and track feelings, and collaborative planning for small changes between meetings. Her aim is to help people feel steadier and clearer about next steps.

Work begins by identifying immediate needs and realistic goals. Amy encourages a straightforward, paced approach so people can try new ways of coping without feeling rushed.

Ways of working Amy names

Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.

How Amy uses client-centred and mindfulness approaches online

Amy draws on client-centred therapy, which means sessions focus on what matters most to the person. The therapist listens without judgement and follows the client's lead to explore feelings and priorities. This approach is helpful for people wrestling with grief, life changes, identity questions or emotional overwhelm.

She also uses mindfulness therapy to teach simple practices for calming the body and mind. Mindfulness can aid with managing anxiety, improving sleep and reducing reactivity after trauma. Exercises are short and practical so they can be used between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Amy will work with each person to decide what feels most helpful, adjusting techniques as goals change. That collaborative way makes therapy more relevant and easier to stick with.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow a more face-to-face conversation, while phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a work break. Live chat or messaging can suit brief check-ins, ongoing reflections, or people who prefer not to be on camera. These options add flexibility so therapy can fit around daily life and practical constraints.
