About Amy
Amy Russell is a counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with a BACP credential and seven years of experience. She works with people facing relationship strain, low self-esteem, career uncertainty and the stress of life changes. Amy offers a calm, respectful space and adapts sessions to each person’s needs.
She helps people untangle relationship and family issues using straightforward conversation. Practical problem solving is mixed with attention to feelings, so clients leave with clear next steps and a better sense of themselves.
Background and approach
She also supports people dealing with grief, depression and compassion fatigue. Amy pays close attention to how identity and labels matter. She works with LGBT concerns and gender dysphoria in ways that centre the person’s experience.
Body image, guilt and shame, social anxiety and feeling isolated are all topics she commonly addresses. Sessions often focus on building confidence, improving communication and finding purpose at work or in life. Amy can offer coaching-style tools for motivation alongside longer therapeutic work when that helps.
Conversations are shaped by the client’s goals and pace. She speaks English and French and will tailor language and style to what each person prefers. People who want direct, practical support alongside emotional listening often find her approach helpful.
The first steps are simple and Amy guides clients through arranging their initial session.

Online support
She also draws on emotion-focused ways of working to help people understand and process difficult feelings. That approach helps with issues such as grief, depression, shame and relationship pain by naming emotions and tracking how they affect behaviour.
Choosing the best approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client will discuss goals, preferences and how much structure feels right. Together they decide whether plain coaching tools, deeper emotional work or a mix of both will be most helpful.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is useful for a fuller conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can fit into a busy day or need less bandwidth. Live chat and text are useful for shorter check-ins, ongoing reflection and people who prefer typing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
