About Amanda

Amanda Parry is a UK-based counsellor who works in a warm, exploratory way. She draws on several therapeutic perspectives to help people who are feeling overwhelmed by stress, anxiety, grief or life change. Amanda keeps sessions simple and direct.

She listens first, and then helps people name what feels hard. Conversations may include talking, working with dreams or using imagery to open up new ways of seeing a problem. Her practice suits people coping with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, compassion fatigue and feelings of disconnection.

Background and approach

She also supports those facing decisions around separation, body image concerns, or questions about life purpose and intimacy. Amanda has three years of clinical experience and holds BACP accreditation from the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. She continues her own therapy and receives regular supervision as part of her professional development.

Sessions are offered in English and run online by video or phone, plus live chat and text messaging. Practical matters such as cost and scheduling use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time. To begin, clients complete a short matching questionnaire and book according to therapist availability.

Therapeutic approaches for online support

Amanda uses client-centred work that focuses on the person in the room, listening carefully and following what each client brings. This approach helps when someone needs a steady, non-judgemental space to talk through anxiety, stress or relationship worries.

She also draws on psychodynamic ideas which look at patterns from past experience and how they turn up now. That perspective is useful for issues like attachment, recurring relationship problems, feelings of emptiness or unresolved grief.

Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda will discuss your needs, goals and preferences and together you will decide which methods to try and how to pace the work. She frames therapy as a shared exploration rather than a fixed programme.

Online sessions are offered by video, phone, live chat and text messaging, giving flexibility in how people connect. Video is helpful for more in-depth sessions where visual contact matters, phone can be an easier option when bandwidth is limited, and live chat or messaging suit shorter check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family and daily life while still having access to registered professionals.
