About Amreeta
Amreeta Chapman-Aujayeb is a counsellor with 15 years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She holds BACP accreditation, and speaks English, French and Hindi. Her work focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, low self-esteem and depression, and to recover from trauma and abuse.
She explains things plainly and works at a steady pace that suits each person. Sessions can focus on short-term techniques for confidence, sleep or anger, or on longer work to understand how past experiences shape present feelings.
Background and approach
She aims to build a trusting working relationship so people feel able to talk openly. Amreeta draws on several practical approaches, including Narrative Therapy, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Attachment-Based ideas. She uses these methods to help people rewrite difficult personal stories, find what matters to them, and improve close relationships.
Cognitive behavioural ideas and client-centred listening are also part of her toolbox. Her background includes living and working in different countries, which she says helps her recognise cultural differences in how people describe distress. Sessions are offered in English, French and Hindi, and she currently works with people within the United Kingdom.
Practical sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging. Fees vary by location and depend on subscription terms, which can be cancelled at any time. To begin, a short matching questionnaire is completed and then sessions are scheduled to fit the therapist's availability.

Narrative Therapy in this listing
Narrative Therapy appears in this therapist's own list of approaches. That tells you it is part of how she works. It does not tell you how much of a session it shapes, and this directory does not check or rate training.
If a narrative approach is what you are looking for, it is worth asking Amreeta directly how she uses it and what a session usually looks like.
Online session options
How different approaches work online
Amreeta uses Narrative Therapy to help people tell and reframe the stories they hold about themselves. This approach looks at how events and beliefs shape a person's self-view and helps identify alternative, more helpful ways of describing life experiences.She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) to help people focus on what matters most to them. ACT offers simple exercises to notice difficult thoughts and still act toward valued goals, which can reduce the hold of worry or avoidance.
Attachment-Based ideas are used to look at patterns in close relationships and how early connections affect current responses. This can help people understand why they react strongly in some situations and learn different ways of relating.
Choosing the right approach is a shared process. The therapist will talk with the client about their goals and preferences, try methods that fit, and adjust the plan as progress is made. This collaborative stance helps people find what really helps them.
Online therapy offers flexibility for busy lives. Video calls let most sessions feel much like in-person meetings. Phone sessions work well when video is difficult or lower bandwidth is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit short check-ins, regular notes between sessions or people who prefer writing to speaking. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, childcare and daily routines.
