About Amaris
Amaris Raiana is a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has seven years' experience. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, relationship strain, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues, codependency and related difficulties. Sessions focus on understanding what is happening and finding practical next steps.
She has particular experience with relationship and sexual wellbeing. That can look like communication breaking down, intimacy feeling out of reach, or a sense that something is not working physically or emotionally. Amaris also works with people who feel stuck, disconnected or overwhelmed in other parts of life.
In sessions she helps people make sense of the pattern beneath their choices and feelings. Conversations aim to clarify what matters, spot repeating dynamics, and test small changes that are realistic to try. She talks in plain language and keeps ideas practical so they can be used between meetings.
Amaris lists a wide range of concerns she supports, including addiction issues, grief, parenting strain, career pressures, ADHD, and attachment or abandonment worries. She also includes work with kink and alternative sex culture and fertility or fatherhood issues in her focus areas.
People come to her to untangle difficult emotions and to practice clearer communication and boundaries. To begin, readers are encouraged to use the site matching process and schedule a first session if the fit feels right.
How sessions work
Therapeutic approaches and online sessions
Amaris works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques and adapts them to relationship and intimacy concerns. One common approach she uses helps people map repeating patterns in relationships and personal reactions. That method focuses on identifying triggers and usual responses so small changes can be practised in everyday life. Another approach focuses on improving communication and emotional expression. This concentrates on clear, concrete skills for talking about needs, listening, and repairing misunderstandings.Choosing the right approach is part of the work. Amaris treats it as a collaborative process. She will discuss the options, try approaches in session, and adjust based on what feels most helpful for the person's goals and preferences.
The therapist's profile did not list which online session formats are offered, so confirm the current options before you book. Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings around work, childcare and travel. They also allow for shorter check-ins when time is tight, or voice-only meetings when video is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals often use these options to reduce travel and keep regular contact while working on relationship, intimacy and codependency patterns.
