About Amy
Amy Heyes is a person centred counsellor who supports people facing parenting stress and many other concerns. She offers calm, steady conversation and help to work out what matters most. Amy works in English and practices from the United Kingdom as a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP.
Amy keeps sessions simple and direct. She gives people space to talk and encourages them to notice what matters to them.
Background and approach
She listens without judging and will sometimes offer reflections to help bring clarity. That approach often helps people untangle difficult decisions and take practical steps forward. Her work covers a wide range of issues.
These include anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem, grief, addictions, sleep and eating concerns, and parenting strains. Amy also supports those living with chronic pain, illness or disability, and people who have experienced trauma, domestic violence or sexual assault. With three years of experience, Amy draws on person centred practice to shape each conversation.
Sessions focus on what a person brings in the moment, and on building understanding together. She aims to help people feel heard and to discover the choices available to them. Amy uses video, phone, live chat or text-based messaging for online sessions.
People who want to begin are invited to complete a short matching questionnaire and book a first appointment that fits their schedule.

Approaches and online counselling options
Amy practises person centred counselling, which focuses on listening closely and helping the client find their own answers through clear reflection and support. This approach is helpful for people dealing with emotional overwhelm, parenting stress, depression, or relationship concerns.She also draws on evidence-based techniques that help with anxiety and trauma-related symptoms, using practical reflections and pacing to help people manage difficult feelings and painful memories. These techniques aim to make emotions easier to understand and act on, rather than offering quick fixes.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Amy will work with each person to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. She adapts the style of sessions over time, checking in about what helps and changing course where needed.
Online therapy is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited, and brief matters or check-ins can be handled through chat or text. These options make it easier to fit counselling around work, childcare and daily life while keeping continuity of support.
