Amy Neave

Amy Neave is a counsellor who offers a calm, compassionate space to slow down and reconnect with yourself. She is NCPS registered, and works with people who are feeling anxious, overwhelmed, or disconnected. Amy aims to help clients notice thought patterns, make sense of emotions, and find gentler ways of relating to themselves.

In sessions she focuses on understanding how past experiences shape present responses. That can include looking at attachment, feelings of abandonment, or patterns such as people-pleasing and codependency. She also supports those coping with trauma, grief, eating and body image concerns, and the stresses of daily life.

Amy uses a blend of approaches including Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, alongside attachment-based and client-centred ways of working. This mix is used to help people build emotional clarity, practical coping skills, and more helpful perspectives on difficult thoughts.

She has around five years of experience and describes her style as gentle and relational. Amy offers a flexible approach for neurodivergent clients, including people with ADHD and autism, and adapts pace and tools to each person’s way of thinking.

Many people come with questions about relationships, boundaries, self-esteem, or patterns linked to narcissism and control issues. Amy aims to create space to explore these concerns without judgement, and to support practical steps toward feeling more like yourself.

Therapeutic approaches for online counselling

Amy uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people notice unhelpful thoughts and refocus on what matters to them. ACT often involves values work and simple practices to move toward meaningful action despite difficult feelings.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That approach helps people understand their attachment style, notice recurring relationship dynamics, and try different ways of connecting with others.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amy will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and suggest which methods to try together. She adapts the pace and exercises to suit how you prefer to think and respond, whether you need practical tools or reflective conversation.

If you are considering online work, please confirm current session options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments into a busy week, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also support people who prefer to work from their own familiar environment or who need more flexible scheduling.
