About Amaris
Amaris Raiana is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with seven years of experience. She works with adults dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, addictions, grief, parenting strains, and anger. She also supports people facing career pressures, low self-esteem, ADHD-related struggles, and changes such as divorce or fertility concerns.
Amaris focuses on making sense of what is happening in a person’s life and relationships. She listens without judgment and helps identify what lies under the surface of repeated patterns. Conversations aim to be straightforward and practical, with ideas that can be tried between sessions.
Her work often centres on relationship and sexual wellbeing. That can mean helping when communication has broken down, intimacy feels distant, or sexual concerns are affecting day-to-day life. She also helps individuals who feel stuck, disconnected, or overwhelmed in other parts of their life.
Sessions are described as honest and down to earth. Amaris uses clear, practical language rather than clinical jargon. She and the client look at what is maintaining a problem and map small steps that feel achievable in real life.
She also offers focused support around attachment and abandonment themes, codependency, control and communication problems, and care-related stress. For clients with complex or intersecting concerns, she works to untangle the patterns and make a plan for steady change.
To start, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book an initial session. The approach aims to be realistic and direct, helping people build manageable ways to reduce reactivity and improve connection over time.
How sessions work
How Amaris uses evidence-based methods online
Amaris draws on evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on behaviour, thoughts and relationships. One common approach helps people notice patterns that trigger anger or disconnection, then practises small behavioural changes to reduce reactivity and improve communication. This approach suits problems such as snapping at loved ones, workplace frustration, and persistent resentments.Another approach explores attachment and relationship dynamics to understand why certain situations provoke strong responses. This helps with intimacy issues, abandonment fears, codependency, and problems where control and communication repeatedly break down. The aim is to uncover repeating patterns and try manageable alternatives in everyday life.
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will review needs, goals and preferences and will adapt methods as understanding grows. That means the plan can change based on what helps most in real conversations and daily situations.
Practical benefits of having sessions online include fitting therapy around work or family routines and cutting travel time. Different online arrangements can suit quieter check-ins, shorter progress reviews, or deeper sessions depending on what a client needs. Confirm the exact session formats available before booking so arrangements match everyday life and goals.
