About Amreeta

Amreeta Chapman-Aujayeb is a BACP-registered counsellor practising in the United Kingdom with 15 years of professional experience. She works with people dealing with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, anger, low self-esteem and depression. She speaks English, French and Hindi and draws on broad international experience from living in Mauritius, India and England.

She trained initially with a Masters in Clinical Psychology and later moved into therapeutic counselling and hypnotherapy. She is currently undertaking doctorate-level training aimed at teaching counselling and psychotherapy. Her background includes work with complex trauma, sexual abuse, domestic violence, and post-traumatic stress concerns.

Amreeta offers both longer-term work and shorter-term, technique-focused support. Shorter work can include confidence building, sleep and insomnia strategies, anxiety tools and anger management techniques. She describes therapy as a collaborative effort to understand symptoms and find practical ways to reduce the problems they create in daily life.

Her approach draws on Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, attachment-based ideas, client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques. Sessions combine attention to emotion and relationships with practical exercises when useful. She aims to help people name difficult feelings and change recurring interaction patterns.

People who prefer a mix of emotional exploration and concrete strategies may find this style helpful. Those looking to address the impact of past trauma or to work on communication and commitment concerns will find these themes are within her stated practice. To begin, readers should use the site matching flow to choose session options and schedule a first meeting.

How her approaches are used in online sessions

Emotionally-Focused Therapy (EFT) focuses on recognising and working with core emotions and the patterns they create in relationships. It helps people name hard-to-reach feelings and change recurring interaction habits that cause distress.

Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then take values-based steps forward. It is often used for anxiety, low mood and ongoing stress.

Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current feelings and behaviours. It can be useful when past connection problems affect trust, communication or commitment in adult relationships.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will discuss what feels most useful based on a client’s goals, symptoms and preferences. Decisions about mixing approaches are made together so sessions reflect what the client needs.

Session formats are not specified here, so please confirm current online options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, allow shorter check-ins when time is limited, and remove travel time. Registered or accredited professionals often offer ways to adapt pacing and tasks to everyday life so therapy can work alongside family and work commitments.
