About Amy

Amy Neave is a counsellor registered with the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) who offers a calm, compassionate space for people to reconnect with themselves. She supports those feeling anxious, low in mood, overwhelmed, or disconnected and helps them slow down, reflect, and prioritise their needs. Amy works with people who want to better understand their emotions, thought patterns and relationships.

Her approach is gentle and relational, emphasising empathy and active listening. Sessions often explore attachment styles, habits of self-criticism, and beliefs such as "I’m not enough" in plain, practical terms. Therapy may include learning grounding tools, noticing thought patterns, and practising self-compassion.

Amy draws on a mix of humanistic and solution-focused ideas alongside somatic techniques to meet each person’s pace and goals. She also uses approaches like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy where helpful. Work is tailored for the individual rather than following one fixed method.

She has five years of experience and mentions particular experience supporting people who are neurodivergent, including those with ADHD and autism. Amy describes helping people who feel misunderstood, who struggle with emotional regulation, or who want to stop masking parts of themselves.

Amy practises from the United Kingdom and offers services in English. People who live outside the UK can also be matched, and sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

How Amy’s therapeutic approaches guide online work

Amy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice thoughts and feelings without getting swept away by them, and to take steps that match their values. This can be useful for anxiety, low mood, and codependency patterns. Attachment-Based Therapy is used to look at how early relationships shape current styles of relating and to build new ways of connecting that feel safer and clearer. That approach can help with relationship worries and feelings of abandonment.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amy aims to talk about goals and preferences in the first sessions and to try methods that fit each person’s needs. She works collaboratively, checking in about what helps and adapting the plan as therapy progresses.

The biography indicates Amy offers online counselling, but it does not list specific formats here, so please confirm available session types before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around busy days, or making it possible to meet from different locations. Many people find it simpler to keep therapy consistent when sessions slot into their usual routine.
