Background and approach

Sessions are friendly and direct, with a focus on what matters to the person sitting in the room. Her work often begins with helping a person map what’s going on in their life. That can mean looking at mood, relationships, or recent losses and changes.

Amanda then supports them to make sense of difficult feelings and to spot small, manageable steps forward. She blends client-centred ways of working with cognitive behavioural ideas and mindfulness exercises when these fit the person’s goals. This mix is used to tackle common problems such as low mood, anxiety, grief and coping through life transitions.

Amanda also works with people facing addictions, issues around intimacy, self-esteem, parenting stresses and career worries. She has an interest in attachment matters, abandonment and adoption and in supporting those affected by eating, sleeping or substance difficulties. Sessions are available online by video, phone, chat or text messaging.

People start by completing a short questionnaire and then book sessions that match their schedule and needs.

How Amanda uses different approaches in online therapy

Amanda combines client-centred listening with practical techniques to support change. Client-Centred Therapy means she follows the person’s lead, offering empathy and reflective listening to help them make sense of their feelings. This approach helps when someone needs to talk openly about loss, identity or life changes.

Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, is used to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and to try small behavioural experiments. It is often helpful for anxiety, low mood and stress by giving clear steps to test out between sessions.

Mindfulness Therapy introduces simple awareness exercises and breathing practices to reduce overwhelm and improve focus. These tools can be used alongside talking work to manage stress and improve sleep.

Finding the right mix is a collaborative process. Amanda discusses options with each person and adjusts methods to fit their goals and preferences. She works alongside clients to plan what to try and to review what helps most.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text messaging. Video is useful for in-depth dialogue and non-verbal cues. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can suit shorter check-ins. Chat or text messaging can be convenient for brief updates or when typing feels easier. These options aim to make therapy more flexible and easier to fit into everyday life.
