Amy Marshall
Experienced counsellor for practical emotional support
About Amy
Amy Marshall offers calm, straightforward support for people dealing with anxiety, low mood, stress and big life changes. She meets each person where they are and focuses on practical steps to feel steadier. Amy uses clear, conversational language so conversations are easy to follow even on a busy day.
With 12 years of experience, Amy draws on a blend of approaches to shape sessions around what helps most. She pays attention to patterns in relationships and attachment, and to how thoughts influence feelings and behaviour.
Background and approach
Sessions are tailored to the individual rather than following a single formula. Clients can expect a relaxed, person-centred tone that emphasises listening and collaboration. Amy aims to help people make sense of difficult experiences, develop coping strategies, and try out new ways of responding.
This can include looking at past relationships, everyday thinking habits, and current stresses. Her background includes work guided by psychodynamic and Jungian ideas, alongside cognitive behavioural techniques. Amy is a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP, and works in line with that professional framework.
Areas she supports include trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, bereavement, addiction concerns, parenting strain, chronic illness and long-term stress. She also works with people who want help around self-esteem, eating and sleeping difficulties, ADHD and bipolar-related concerns.
People who want to begin are invited to use the site’s Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and arrange sessions according to the therapist’s schedule.

Online therapy and how different approaches help
Amy often draws on attachment-based ideas and cognitive behavioural techniques in her work. Attachment-based work looks at how early and current relationship patterns affect how people relate and cope, and can help with intimacy, abandonment and communication problems. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and is useful for anxiety, low mood and unhelpful behaviour patterns.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amy works collaboratively with each person to choose which methods to try first, and adapts them as goals and needs become clearer. Clients are encouraged to feed back about what is helpful so the plan can be changed together.
Practical benefits of online therapy include fitting sessions into a busy life and keeping continuity when travel is difficult. Online work can make it easier to schedule shorter check-ins or to avoid travel time, and it allows people to use quieter surroundings or lower-bandwidth options if that helps. The therapist’s biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm the available online or in-person options before booking.
