Amy Skarratts, BACP

Amy Skarratts is licensed to practice in the United Kingdom and brings seven years of professional experience working with people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, relationship difficulties and family conflict. She focuses on helping individuals identify their existing strengths and build practical ways to manage the challenges that have been getting in the way of a more satisfying life.

Amy approaches therapy with the belief that each person is the expert on their own story, and she aims to collaborate with clients to explore options, develop coping strategies, and strengthen resilience. Taking the step to seek change can feel daunting, and Amy offers steady support as people find their own path toward greater well-being and clearer relationships.

Her practice emphasizes respectful listening, practical tools, and empowering clients to use their resources to move through difficult moments and toward goals that matter to them.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care with Amy Skarratts

Amy works with Client-Centered Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) as key approaches in her practice. Client-Centered Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-directive space where the client’s perspective and choices guide the work; it is often helpful for people who want supportive, strength-based exploration of personal concerns. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) involves identifying unhelpful thoughts and patterns and developing practical strategies to change them - it is commonly used for stress, anxiety, and coping with addictive behaviours.

Determining the right approach is part of the therapeutic process. Amy collaborates with each person to understand their needs, goals, and preferences, and will adapt methods so the work fits the individual rather than forcing a single model.

Online therapy offers flexibility in how people access support. Video calls and phone sessions allow for real-time conversation, while live chat and text-based messaging provide shorter, more frequent contact when that suits a client’s schedule. These options make it easier to fit therapy around daily life and to maintain continuity of care across locations, supporting consistent progress with a registered professional.
