About Amie
Amie Mottram works with people on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief and loss, depression and related concerns. She uses an evidence-based therapeutic approach and has three years of professional experience. Amie is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS).
Amie sees each person as the expert in their own life and focuses on practical steps that build on existing strengths. In sessions she helps people talk through what feels difficult and identify small changes they can try between meetings. Her approach is direct and practical, aimed at reducing distress and increasing day-to-day coping skills.
She also works with issues such as addiction, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related concerns, parenting stress, anger and self-esteem. Additional areas she supports include chronic illness and pain, cancer, domestic violence, guilt and shame, isolation, and life-purpose questions. Amie offers help with panic attacks, phobias, self-harm thoughts, personality disorder related difficulties, and stopping smoking or vaping.
Amie uses techniques drawn from evidence-based therapeutic methods to address symptoms and patterns that maintain problems. She and the client agree goals and review progress in straightforward terms. Sessions focus on clear steps, practical coping strategies and exploring the thoughts and behaviours that keep difficulties going.
People meet Amie to work through immediate problems and to build skills for longer-term resilience. She encourages active participation, regular review of goals and setting manageable tasks between sessions. The emphasis is on practical change rather than abstract theory.
Using evidence-based approaches in online counselling
Amie works from evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. One common approach she uses helps people identify unhelpful thought patterns and test new ways of thinking and behaving; this is useful for anxiety, depression and social fears. Another approach targets specific behaviours and teaches step-by-step skills for coping with panic, cravings, anger or intrusive thoughts; it suits people who want concrete tools to manage symptoms.
Finding the right way of working is part of the process. The therapist will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try and how to adapt them. This is a collaborative process with regular review to see what helps and what to adjust.
If you are considering sessions online, please confirm the exact session formats before booking because the biography does not list them. Online counselling can make it easier to fit appointments around work, childcare or treatment appointments, and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when needed, or sessions without video when bandwidth is limited. Ask about the available formats when you book so arrangements suit your day-to-day life.
Sessions take place through BetterHelp by video, phone or messaging. We will earn a commission if you sign up.
