About Amie

Amie Carson is a BACP-registered counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years' experience. She works with adults facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also focuses on issues such as abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, body image, fertility and caregiver stress.

Amie uses a mix of practical approaches in sessions. She draws on client-centred listening to understand what matters to each person. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques help people spot patterns of thinking and try small changes. Attachment-based ideas are used to look at how past relationships shape current reactions.

Sessions are conversational and task-oriented when useful. Amie offers straightforward tools for managing anxiety and for responding to distressing thoughts. She also works on relationship patterns and coping after loss or major life change.

Her background includes a foundation course with the British Infertility Counselling Association and training as an integrative counsellor. Integrative work means she brings together several approaches to suit the person in front of her rather than following a single script.

People who come because they feel stuck in work or life often begin by mapping what matters now and what a small next step might be. Amie asks practical questions, sets simple tasks between sessions when helpful, and reviews progress regularly. This straightforward way of working aims to make decisions and actions feel more manageable.

How Amie's approaches work in online sessions

Amie draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current reactions. This helps people who notice repeating patterns in relationships or who find it hard to trust others. Client-centred work means conversations are led by the person’s priorities and concerns, with the counsellor offering reflection and questions to clarify what matters most.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to identify unhelpful thoughts and try practical experiments. CBT-style tasks can be used between sessions to test small changes and build new habits. Together these approaches aim to make thinking and relationship patterns clearer and more manageable over time.

Finding the right way of working is treated as a collaborative process. Amie will discuss approaches and agree what to try based on a person’s goals and preferences. She reviews what is helpful as you go and adjusts techniques if needed.

The site describes how to proceed to book a session, but please confirm the current session formats before you book. Online work can make it easier to fit regular sessions around everyday life, allow shorter check-ins when needed, and avoid travel time. Practical benefits include being able to choose a quieter time in the day, use a telephone check-in when you prefer not to use video, or schedule sessions that fit a work break.
