Amanda Wayling-Yates

Amanda Wayling-Yates is a counsellor with six years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, anger, low self-esteem and motivation. She also supports those facing big life changes and people working to build confidence. Amanda approaches each person as the expert in their own story and offers steady support through change.

In sessions she focuses on listening and responding to what matters to the individual. Her style is client-centred, which means she follows the person’s pace and priorities rather than imposing a fixed plan. Conversations aim to clarify what is getting in the way and to find practical steps that feel manageable.

Amanda works with a wide range of concerns including relationship and intimacy issues, grief and trauma, sleep and eating difficulties, ADHD and mood conditions. She also addresses workplace stress, parenting strains and questions around identity and LGBT matters. She pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions and helps people explore those links.

The work often mixes short-term practical goals with deeper reflection. Tasks between sessions may focus on small changes that build confidence and reduce reactivity. Amanda encourages people to try new approaches and notice what works for them.

Her NCPS credential is shown to confirm professional standing in the UK. If someone is unsure whether this approach fits, Amanda suggests a first conversation to see how her way of working matches their needs.

How Amanda's client-centred approach works online

Amanda uses client-centred therapy, which means she listens without judgement and follows the client’s lead. This approach helps people who feel overwhelmed by anger, anxiety or life changes to clarify what matters to them and to choose manageable steps forward.

The emphasis is on building understanding and self-direction. Sessions explore how past experiences affect current reactions and support people to use their strengths. This can be useful for issues such as stress, low self-esteem and relationship concerns where personal values and choices matter.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda works with each person to decide which methods suit their goals and preferences. Together they review what helps and adjust the focus as needed rather than sticking to one fixed plan.

Practical benefits of online work include fitting sessions around daily life and reducing travel time. Online options can make it easier to schedule short check-ins or regular weekly sessions during a lunch break or after work. Because session formats were not specified in the original profile, confirm current session options before booking to ensure the setup matches your needs.
