About Amie
Amie Coates offers practical, steady support for people feeling overwhelmed by anxiety, stress or life changes. She writes plainly and listens closely so parents can talk through day-to-day worries and difficult moments. Sessions are focused on what matters to the individual and on small, manageable steps forward.
Amie has worked in the United Kingdom for 17 years in independent practice, schools, further education and with charities. She uses an integrative approach that draws on several ways of working.
Background and approach
That means conversations and activities are shaped to fit each person's needs rather than following a single formula. In a session she will help you spot unhelpful thought patterns and try simple experiments to change them. She also gives space to feelings and relationships, helping clients understand where strong reactions come from and how to respond differently.
Practical tools and reflective conversation are mixed according to what feels most useful. Areas Amie commonly supports include stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also works with issues such as adoption and foster care, attachment, body image, caregiver stress, chronic illness, relationship breakdown, eating difficulties and financial worries.
Her approach is respectful and non-judgemental. Amie aims to help people regain a sense of agency and clearer direction. The focus is on realistic goals and steady progress over time.
How Amie’s approaches work in online therapy
Amie uses Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy as core ways of working online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding your experience. The therapist reflects what you say, helping you to make sense of feelings and decide what matters next. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviour link together. It uses simple experiments and exercises to reduce anxiety and improve mood.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Amie will collaborate with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. Conversations include checking what feels safe and useful, then trying practical steps and reviewing what helps over time.
Online sessions can be scheduled as video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when you prefer seeing expressions. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a short break. Live chat and messaging suit brief check-ins, continued reflection between meetings or when typing feels easier than speaking. These options offer flexibility for different routines and needs, and make it easier to keep continuity of care when life is busy.
