Amy Butterworth is a BACP-registered counsellor and psychotherapist practising in the United Kingdom. She works from a person-centred stance and adopts a holistic, collaborative and pluralistic approach – at times integrating elements from other modalities to help clients move toward the outcomes they want.

Amy aims to meet people where they are, offering a warm and supportive space in which clients can feel heard, accepted and able to work through difficult feelings at their own pace. Her approach emphasises safety, respect and a steady therapeutic presence.

She has experience supporting people with a wide range of difficulties, including stress, anxiety, depression, bereavement, relationship and financial pressures, domestic violence and sexual abuse. In her private practice she frequently works with antenatal and postnatal challenges, pregnancy loss and related issues such as miscarriage, baby loss, abortion, birth trauma and grief.

Amy brings nine years of maternity experience from work within the NHS and is an accredited practitioner with the Foundation for Infant Loss. In recent years she has developed a particular interest in neurodiversity, especially ASD and ADHD, influenced by her experience caring for a child with additional needs. She is interested in working with parents and carers of family members with SEND.

Amy’s background also supports work around parenting, compassion fatigue, addictions, intimacy and relationship concerns, eating and sleeping difficulties, anger, self-esteem, coping with life changes and career-related issues. As a female, non-religious therapist she offers coaching alongside therapeutic work where relevant.
