About Amy
Amy Murray helps people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, low mood or relationship difficulties. She introduces a calm, non-judgemental space where people can say what they really feel and start to make small changes. Amy holds a BACP credential, which is shown as BACP in her profile.
She has five years of professional experience supporting people through grief and loss, dips in motivation, and struggles with self‑esteem and confidence.
How Amy works
Amy also works with concerns such as anger, trauma and abuse, bipolar mood challenges, and the strain that comes with caregiving and compassion fatigue. Her practice includes practical conversations about career pressures, communication problems, and coping with life changes like separation or bereavement.
Amy pays attention to how past experiences such as abandonment, adoption or attachment issues can affect present relationships and choices. She also offers help with body image, codependency and blended family issues. Sessions are straightforward and centred on what matters to each person.
Amy listens, reflects, and helps explore options for change so people can try things that might work for them. The focus is on realistic steps and clearer thinking rather than long theoretical explanations. People can expect a warm, steady approach that treats their concerns seriously.
Amy aims to support clients to build confidence, manage difficult feelings, and make decisions that fit their lives.

How therapeutic approaches work in online sessions
Amy uses evidence‑based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and clearer thinking. One common approach is structured talking therapy that helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and try alternative ways of thinking and acting; this can help with anxiety, low mood and self‑esteem. Another approach focuses on coping strategies and behavioural tasks that build small wins over time, which can be helpful for stress, motivation and managing mood swings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amy will collaborate with each person to decide which techniques match their needs, goals and personal preferences. She adapts the pace and methods based on how someone responds and what fits their life circumstances.
Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone, live chat and text messaging to give flexibility. Video calls are useful when face‑to‑face style conversations are needed, phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check‑ins and text messaging can support shorter, ongoing contact between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and other commitments.
