About Amanda
Her work commonly addresses stress and anxiety, relationship strain, family conflict and responses to trauma and abuse. She also supports people dealing with depression, grief, eating issues, anger, bipolar mood difficulties, ADHD and the life shifts that follow major change. LGBT concerns and multicultural issues are part of her practice too.
Amanda focuses on listening closely and following each person’s pace. She helps people notice patterns in thoughts, feelings and behaviour, and then tries out small changes together. Sessions aim to be straightforward, practical and grounded in what the client needs now.
With a background in counselling over 15 years, Amanda draws on experience gained across different settings in the United Kingdom. Her BACP registration is listed as a professional credential. She invites people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or unsure about the next step to explore what matters most to them.
To begin, she asks for a short matching questionnaire and then scheduling is arranged according to availability. The subscription model used for sessions can be cancelled at any time, and fees vary with location and therapist availability.

How client-centred therapy works online
Amanda’s main approach is client-centred therapy. This means sessions concentrate on listening closely and following what the person brings. The counsellor aims to reflect feelings and help the client find their own solutions, which can suit worries like anxiety, anger and relationship strain.She also uses simple, practical ways to look at problems and small steps to try out new behaviour. This helps with coping in daily life, managing mood swings and handling stressful events. The focus is on what each person wants to change and how they prefer to work.
Finding the right way to work together is part of the process. Amanda will discuss different approaches and decide with the client which methods best match their needs, goals and preferences. That collaboration helps tailor the sessions to what feels most useful.
The biography does not list specific session formats, so please confirm current options before booking. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It can also allow shorter check-ins, quieter conversations when needed, or meetings without travelling to an appointment. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these practical benefits while helping people explore change and manage difficult emotions.
