About Amie

Amie Mottram is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who draws on three years of professional experience to support people facing stress, anxiety, grief and depression. She invites clients to speak about what matters to them and treats each person as the expert in their own story. Her style is encouraging and direct, aimed at helping people take manageable steps forward.

Amie offers help with relationship and intimacy-related difficulties and with problems connected to addiction and anger.

Background and approach

She also works with concerns linked to family dynamics, self-esteem and coping with life changes. Practical conversations focus on what can be tried between sessions as well as what comes up in the room. She has worked with people affected by chronic illness, cancer and pain, and with those dealing with domestic violence and other trauma.

Amie pays attention to how past experiences influence current reactions and decisions. She helps clients notice patterns and try new ways of responding. Amie holds BACP and NCPS credentials.

BACP stands for the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and NCPS is the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society. These reflect her professional registration in the UK. Sessions are run in English and may be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging.

International clients are not currently accepted. Therapy uses a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time.

Online support

How therapeutic techniques translate to online care

Amie works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that help people understand patterns and try new responses. One common approach focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and changing them into more balanced thinking; this can reduce anxiety and low mood by shifting how someone interprets situations. Another approach emphasises coping skills and practical strategies to manage stress, anger and cravings, giving people tools they can use between sessions.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or has not helped in the past. Together they decide which techniques to try and adjust the plan as progress is made.

Online therapy here is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to fit different needs. Video is useful for face-to-face conversation and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions work well when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit people who prefer writing and want ongoing written contact. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments.
