About Amanda
Amanda "Mandy" Roberts helps people who are struggling with stress and anxiety, as well as related concerns like sleep problems, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports people coping with grief, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy issues, and career or life transitions.
Mandy works with clients who identify as LGBT and addresses a wide range of other concerns such as ADHD, compassion fatigue and communication problems. She is based in the United Kingdom and brings 14 years of experience to her practice.
Background and approach
Mandy uses a person-centred style that keeps the client in charge of pace and focus. Short-term practical tools are offered when they suit the moment, such as cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness-based ideas to reduce overwhelm. At the same time she is willing to explore deeper patterns when a client wants to look into them.
When clients want to examine long-standing dynamics, Mandy may gently introduce attachment-based ideas and work that touches on inner child themes. She aims to help people name underlying feelings and see how past patterns show up now, so daily life becomes easier to manage. Mandy often creates short meditations or exercises to use between sessions.
She encourages small, steady steps and developing skills to sit with uncomfortable emotions without being overwhelmed. Her approach is flexible and adjusts to each person’s goals and needs. She holds the professional credential NCPS, which is shown as NCPS.
Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients. Online and phone formats are available to fit different schedules and preferences.
How therapeutic approaches work online
Amanda blends Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in ways that focus on practical change. CBT is about spotting unhelpful thinking and trying different behaviours to test new outcomes, which can help with anxiety, sleep and mood. Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) emphasises noticing feelings and choosing actions that match your values, which can be useful for managing distress and moving forward.Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist will talk with clients about what feels most helpful and try different techniques to see what fits. Goals, preferences and everyday pressures guide which methods are used and how sessions are paced.
Online therapy offers flexible ways to connect. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions work when bandwidth is limited or a shorter check-in is needed. Live chat and text-based messaging suit people who prefer written support or need to fit therapy into a busy day. These options make it easier to access consistent support while using approaches like CBT and ACT in practical, workable ways.
