Amy Baglietto
Psychotherapist
You might be here because, on the surface, things look okay.
You manage. You cope. You get on with it.
But inside, you feel tired, overwhelmed, disconnected, or unsure why life feels heavier than it should.
Maybe you think a lot. Feel deeply. Carry responsibility.
And yet still find yourself stuck in familiar patterns, doubting yourself, or emotionally exhausted.
In therapy, my focus is on building a real, human connection.
A space where you can show up as you are. Without masks. Without judgement. Without having to explain yourself away.
My role is not to give you quick answers, but to walk alongside you as you make sense of what you are carrying and why it matters.
I bring warmth, honesty, and presence to each session. Together, we explore what feels heavy, understand where it comes from, and find ways forward that feel authentic and sustainable.
At the heart of my work is helping you feel supported, understood, and less alone in your inner world.
How Counselling Supports You
Counselling offers you space to pause, reflect, and understand yourself more deeply.
It is a place to step out of “coping mode” and begin to explore what is really happening beneath the surface.
In our work together, you may begin to:
• Understand the patterns that keep repeating in your relationships, work, or emotional life
• Feel more confident in your thoughts, feelings, and decisions
• Learn how to manage anxiety, overwhelm, and self criticism with more compassion
• Develop clearer boundaries and stronger self trust
• Feel more connected to yourself and to others
• Reduce the sense of carrying everything alone
Rather than focusing only on symptoms, we look at the wider picture of your life, history, and nervous system.
​
We take time to understand where your responses developed, how they have protected you, and whether they are still serving you now.
Counselling is not about becoming someone different.
It is about becoming more fully yourself.
Over time, many people find they feel calmer, clearer, and more emotionally grounded. They begin to respond to life rather than constantly react to it.
Men and Counselling
Many men come to therapy feeling unsure whether it is “for them”.
You may have learned to deal with things on your own.
To stay busy. To stay strong. To not make a fuss.
You might tell yourself that others have it worse.
That you should just get on with it.
That talking will not really change anything.
And yet, something feels off.
Maybe you feel constantly under pressure.
Maybe you struggle to switch off.
Maybe anger, frustration, or emotional numbness keeps showing up.
Maybe relationships feel harder than they should.
Coming to counselling is not a sign of weakness.
It is a sign that you are taking responsibility for your mental and emotional health.
​
In our work together, there is no expectation to talk in a particular way or share more than you are ready to. We go at your pace, in a practical and grounded way.
We focus on helping you:
​
• Understand what is driving stress, anxiety, or low mood
• Develop healthier ways of managing pressure and emotions
• Improve communication and relationships
• Feel more in control of your choices and reactions
• Reconnect with what matters to you
Therapy offers a space where you do not have to perform, compete, or prove anything. You can be honest, uncertain, frustrated, or quiet. All of it is welcome.
Many men find that counselling helps them feel clearer, steadier, and more confident in themselves and their lives.

ADHD and Therapy
Living with ADHD as an adult can be confusing, exhausting, and often misunderstood.
You may have spent years feeling “too much”, “not enough”, or somehow out of step with others. You may be capable, creative, and intelligent, yet still struggle with focus, organisation, motivation, or emotional regulation.
​
Many adults with ADHD have learned to mask, overwork, or criticise themselves in order to cope. From the outside, things may look fine. Inside, it can feel chaotic, overwhelming, or quietly painful.
​
You might come to therapy with a diagnosis, be exploring whether ADHD fits for you, or simply feel that something about how your mind works is different.
In our work together, we look beyond surface level strategies and explore how ADHD has shaped your self image, relationships, work, and emotional life.
Therapy can support you to
​
• Understand your ADHD in a compassionate and realistic way
• Reduce shame and self blame
• Develop systems that work with your brain, not against it
• Improve emotional regulation and resilience
• Strengthen self trust and confidence
• Navigate relationships and work more effectively
Our work is grounded in psychological understanding, not stereotypes or quick fixes. We focus on helping you build a life that fits how you think and feel, rather than forcing yourself into systems that exhaust you.
ADHD is not something to “fix”.
It is something to understand, work with, and support properly.
What My Clients Say
"Working with Amy Baglietto has no doubt been a life changing experience for me and I have no idea where I would be without her. Although I always had belief that I would find a way to beat Anxiety I lacked the tools, techniques and support to do so but through working with Amy I now feel as though I am truly nearly out the other side of the tunnel. Amy is very patient and genuinely cares about her patients and I would highly recommend working through any hardships you may face"
​
- Thomas M.
“Working with Amy has transformed my on-going healing journey - she has been instrumental in enabling me to integrate and release long-held issues that I had not fully understood before our sessions together. She continuously creates a safe space for me to feel supported and no longer afraid to explore challenging thoughts, emotions and triggers. I am incredibly grateful for her deep expertise, guidance and patience and I would certainly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a kind, encouraging and knowledgeable therapist.
- Sophia D.
Starting therapy can feel like a big step.
It is completely normal to feel unsure, nervous, or even sceptical before your first session. You do not need to prepare anything specific or know exactly what you want to say.
​
The first session is an opportunity for us to meet, talk about what has brought you here, and explore what you hope might feel different in your life.
You are welcome to begin wherever feels most comfortable.
Some people arrive with a clear focus. Others simply know that something is not working but cannot quite put it into words. Both are valid.
​
During this session we will:
​
• Explore what has led you to seek therapy now
• Discuss any relevant history at a pace that feels manageable
• Consider your goals or areas of difficulty
• Talk through practical arrangements and boundaries
There is no pressure to share more than you feel ready to.
Therapy is a collaborative process, and it is important that you feel safe and understood.
​
You are also free to decide whether we are a good fit. A strong therapeutic relationship is one of the most important factors in meaningful change.
If you choose to continue, we will agree on a structure that supports you, whether that is short term focused work or longer term exploration.
