Amber Rampley

There are times in all our lives when speaking to someone outside our immediate friend or family group can be really helpful. Whatever you’re facing right now, I offer a warm, holding and confidential environment in which to explore your issues.

A little about me and how I work
I am a psychotherapeutic counsellor working in private practice in Buckinghamshire. I offer face-to-face and online counselling and psychotherapy to adult individuals.  I trained in Transactional Analysis psychotherapy and I work relationally, this means putting the relationship that we develop at the heart of the work, so we can begin to explore and ultimately heal from a place of safety.

Qualifications
I trained at the Metanoia Institute, London, in collaboration with Middlesex University. I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Transactional Analysis Studies and a Diploma in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapeutic Counselling.

Experience 
As well as my private practice, I have several years combined experience working with a broad range of issues both in NHS primary care and charity/not-for-profit sectors.

How can therapy help you?
Very often, just talking and sharing your worries with another person can offer immediate relief. Ongoing, I believe that within us all there is capacity for positive change. By exploring your unique experiences and looking at the dynamics that emerge in our sessions, we can start to untangle and understand those issues that brought you to therapy and possibly more. The aim is to reach a place where you feel content and not held back by past experiences/traumas, persistent worries, unhealthy relationships or behaviours.

Special interest
I have always worked with, and welcome new clients, who bring a vast array of issues and experiences. I also have a special interest in working with individuals who are directly affected by autism. This includes late-diagnosed adults; those currently in the autism assessment process; parents/guardians of autistic children; and individuals who perhaps live with, or have a close relationship with an autistic adult.

My other special interest is working with women and trauma, in whatever form that may take.

I invite all new clients to meet for an initial assessment session, which gives us the chance to get to know one another and decide if we might work well together.  It will also give you the opportunity to tell me a bit more about what brings you to therapy and to ask any questions you may have.  

We will meet in a calm and peaceful dedicated therapy room.

The fee for this initial assessment session is £35.  If we decide to continue to work together ongoing, my fee is £65 per 50-minute session.
