About Amelia

Amelia Weir is a person-centred counsellor who creates a calm, compassionate space for people to talk about what matters to them. She offers straightforward support for stress, anxiety, low mood and parenting concerns. Amelia keeps language simple and meets clients at their pace so they can feel heard without judgement.

Amelia holds a diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, bringing in practical tools when they might help to manage overwhelming thoughts and low confidence.

Background and approach

Her practice draws on ten years of experience working with adults on issues such as anxiety, loss and grief, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties and feeling stuck. Sessions combine space for reflection with achievable steps to change unhelpful patterns or cope better day to day.

Parents often seek her out when everyday pressures feel too heavy or when they want clearer ways to manage stress and family life. Amelia focuses on small, realistic changes and on building self-understanding that fits each person’s situation. She aims to help people feel more grounded and more in control.

Together with each client she looks at what’s going on beneath the surface and tries out approaches that help with lasting change.

Online support

Therapeutic approaches you can use online

Amelia blends person-centred counselling with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy techniques. Person-centred work gives you space to talk and be heard without judgement, which helps when you need to understand feelings or make sense of a difficult time. Cognitive Behavioural techniques offer simple, practical steps to manage anxious or negative thoughts and to try different ways of coping.

Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amelia will listen to your concerns, goals and what feels most useful, then suggest ways of working together. You can try different methods and adapt them as you go to find what helps most for your situation.

Online sessions come in several formats: video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls let you have a conversation that feels close to face to face. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or you prefer no video. Live chat and text messaging are useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions, or when you want to write rather than speak. These options make therapy flexible and easier to fit around parenting and day-to-day life.
