About Amie

Amie Carson is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief, self-esteem and depression. She also focuses on issues related to abandonment, adoption and foster care, attachment concerns, body image, chronic illness and caregiver stress.

Amie uses a mix of practical talking approaches in sessions. She draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to look at patterns of thinking and behaviour, and on attachment-informed work to explore relationship patterns. Mindfulness and solution-focused ideas are used to develop short-term coping strategies and clearer next steps.

Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Amie treats clients as the expert in their own story and helps them notice strengths and small changes they can build on. She has worked with people facing loss, work-related stress and life transitions, and with those dealing with illness and fertility concerns.

Amie completed an integrative counselling training and has a foundation course with the British Infertility Counselling Association. She maintains professional registration as BACP. Her approach is practical and relational, aiming to break problems into manageable parts and find things that make daily life easier.

People who find social settings hard, feel watched in groups or struggle to speak up often find the focus on thinking patterns and attachment helpful. Before booking, readers should confirm current session formats and scheduling options.

How Amie uses therapy approaches online

Attachment-based work focuses on how early and current relationships shape responses to anxiety and social situations. It helps people notice repeating patterns and try different ways of relating in everyday life. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviours and offers clear exercises to test unhelpful thoughts and try new actions. Mindfulness therapy teaches simple attention and breathing practices to reduce reactivity and increase calm in stressful moments.

Choosing the right approach is part of the process. Amie will work collaboratively to identify which methods suit the client’s goals and preferences, and she adjusts plans as sessions progress. The aim is to find practical steps the client can try between meetings and to review what helps.

The biography does not specify session formats, so please confirm current online options before booking. Many people find online meetings easier to fit around work, appointments and caring responsibilities, and some formats make shorter check-ins simpler or avoid the need to be on camera. Discussing practical arrangements during the first contact can help shape sessions that fit daily life and commitments.
