About Amy

Amy Neave is a counsellor who offers a calm, compassionate space to reconnect with yourself. She is NCPS registered and works with people who feel overwhelmed by anxiety, low mood, relationship strain, anger, or major life changes. Sessions aim to help clients notice patterns and make gentle, practical shifts in how they think and behave.

Amy focuses on helping people understand their emotions, thought patterns and relationships. She uses conversational, relational work to look at things like attachment, shame, perfectionism and people-pleasing. Amy often helps clients who are processing past hurt, coping with grief, or managing mood and concentration differences such as ADHD or autism.

Her style is person-centred and down to earth. She listens actively and reflects what she hears so clients can see their patterns more clearly. From there, she and the client decide on practical steps and small experiments to try between sessions.

Therapy with Amy may include techniques from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and cognitive behavioural ideas to help reframe unhelpful thoughts. Emotion-focused and attachment-based ways of working are also part of her toolbox for relationship and attachment concerns. Everything is adapted to the client’s pace and needs.

Amy aims to help people build self-compassion, clearer boundaries and steadier emotional regulation. For those struggling with anger, addiction or intense emotions, she offers calm containment and practical strategies to respond differently. Her approach encourages acceptance alongside change, so everyday life can feel more manageable.

How Amy’s approaches translate to online work

Amy draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice what matters to them and take small steps towards those values even when feelings are difficult. ACT often uses practical exercises and values work to shift how someone responds to stress or anger.

She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. This can help people who struggle with trust, communication or repeated relationship cycles to see how old strategies still show up today.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amy will talk with each person about goals and preferences, then suggest methods to try. That decision is collaborative and can change as needs shift during therapy.

The listing indicates Amy offers online counselling but does not specify session formats, so confirm options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions around work or family, reduce travel time, and allow quieter, shorter check-ins when life is busy. It can also make it simpler to continue therapy when moving or travelling, depending on the arrangements you agree with the therapist.
