Amelia Weir, BACP

Amelia Weir offers person-centred counselling that aims to make talking about hard things feel easier. She creates a calm, compassionate space where people can say what they need to and be heard without judgement. Amelia's first priority is helping clients feel understood and able to take the next step at their own pace.

Amelia holds a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. Over ten years she has supported adults through anxiety, depression, low self-esteem and major life changes. She blends a person-centred stance with practical tools from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy when those techniques seem helpful.

Sessions often focus on reducing overwhelming thoughts and building everyday coping skills. Amelia will listen to your experience and work with you to try approaches that feel manageable. This might include identifying unhelpful thinking patterns, practising simple behavioural changes, or making space to process loss and life transitions.

She has experience helping people who feel stuck, who are managing stress, or who are navigating parenting pressures while looking after themselves. The work is collaborative; Amelia aims to agree small, realistic steps that fit with each person's life.

To start, she asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions according to availability. The emphasis is on making therapy fit into busy lives and supporting steady, practical progress.

How Amelia blends person-centred work and CBT online

Amelia combines person-centred counselling with elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Person-centred work focuses on listening and reflecting so clients can make sense of their feelings and values. It helps when someone needs a non-judgemental space to talk and be understood. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy offers practical tools to spot unhelpful thinking and try small changes in behaviour that can reduce anxiety or low mood.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amelia will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest ways of working that fit their needs. Together they review what is helpful and adjust the approach as the work progresses.

Confirm the specific online session options before booking, as the biography does not list formats. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It can also let people use sessions during a work break or from a quieter spot that suits them, while the therapist helps plan practical steps that translate into day-to-day life.
