About Amber

Amber Sexton is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with five years of professional experience. She aims to make starting therapy a clear and manageable step, and focuses on helping people feel heard and valued from the first session. Amber creates a calm, nonjudgemental atmosphere where clients can talk through painful feelings and confusing situations.

She encourages people to move at their own pace and to set clear, realistic goals.

Background and approach

Sessions are conversational and collaborative, with an emphasis on building trust. Her work often centres on relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, grief, low self-esteem, depression and anxiety. Amber also supports people with stress, LGBT concerns, intimacy-related issues, eating and sleeping problems, parenting stress, anger and career worries.

She can address a wide range of additional struggles such as abandonment, attachment issues and body image concerns. Amber uses several therapeutic approaches to suit different needs. These include Emotionally-Focused Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Attachment-Based Therapy, client-centred methods and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

She draws from each approach to help clients understand patterns and try practical changes. Her background includes a BSc (Hons) in counselling and a Foundation Degree in Counselling. She has worked in NHS settings and community services, and keeps learning through continued professional development in areas such as crisis planning and working with shame.

People who prefer a compassionate, relational style may find her approach helpful. Sessions focus on understanding what matters to the client and finding manageable steps forward.

Online support

How Amber uses emotion-focused and acceptance approaches online

Emotionally-Focused Therapy helps people identify and name strong feelings inside relationships or personal struggles, and then practise new ways of responding. It is often used when emotional reactions feel overwhelming or repetitive. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) teaches practical skills for noticing thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and for taking values-based action even when emotions are hard. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and coping, and aims to create more supported ways of relating.

Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Amber will talk with clients about their needs, goals and preferences and use that discussion to shape which methods to try. The process is collaborative and decisions are reviewed as progress is made.

Online formats offer practical flexibility. Video calls let people see facial expressions and share materials during a session. Phone sessions use less bandwidth and can fit into a busy day. Live chat or text messaging supports shorter check-ins or people who find writing easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to keep consistent contact and to use therapy in a way that fits everyday life.
