About Amy
Amy Cumber is a counsellor with five years of practice who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression. She works with clients dealing with bipolar symptoms, motivation struggles and life changes. Amy approaches therapy as a partnership and aims to empower people to use their own strengths.
She listens first to understand each person’s story and priorities. Sessions are collaborative and paced to suit the individual. Amy describes her style as both nurturing and gently challenging, and she invites feedback so the work can be adjusted as it progresses.
Background and approach
Amy draws on a mix of practical and reflective methods. She uses client-centred listening to build trust, cognitive behavioural techniques to tackle unhelpful thinking, and mindfulness tools to reduce stress. She also uses psychodynamic ideas and solution-focused steps to help people notice patterns and set achievable goals.
Her work includes support around relationships, grief, trauma and coping with chronic health issues. She also helps with eating and sleeping problems, addiction concerns, ADHD-related challenges and issues tied to identity and intimacy. Amy pays attention to how past experiences, such as abandonment or adoption, shape current feelings and choices.
Sessions are available to people in the United Kingdom and are delivered in English. Amy holds BACP accreditation and brings a practical, steady approach to help people make small, sustainable changes.

Online support
Finding the right approach is part of the conversation. Amy will discuss options with each person and choose methods together based on needs, goals and preferences. This collaborative planning means the work can shift as progress is made or circumstances change.
Online sessions are offered as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues, phone sessions can work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits brief check-ins and text messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and daily routines while keeping the focus on practical change and emotional support.
