About Amanda
Amanda Walsh is a counsellor who focuses on practical help for anxiety and stress. She works with people coping with low mood, sleep problems, addictions and self-esteem struggles. Amanda is listed with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and has eight years of professional experience.
She aims to make sessions straightforward and down to earth. Conversations tend to focus on what is getting in the way day to day, and on small changes that can make life easier.
Background and approach
Common topics include trauma and abuse, relationship difficulties, grief, and challenges around intimacy and identity. Amanda also supports people with more specific concerns such as hoarding, obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviours. She helps clients manage symptoms linked to ADHD, bipolar mood changes and eating and anger issues.
Work often includes building coping skills, improving sleep routines and addressing unhelpful thinking patterns. Her approach is collaborative and respectful. Amanda talks things through at a pace the person feels comfortable with and adapts practical strategies to each situation.
She encourages honest conversation about goals and what a good outcome would look like. Sessions can be done online by video, phone, chat or messaging, which makes it easier to fit talking therapy into a busy life. If someone wants to begin, they complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that suit them.
Practical approaches and online therapy options
Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on helping people manage symptoms and build daily coping skills. One common approach helps identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replaces them with more balanced thinking; this can be useful for anxiety, low mood and stress. Another approach focuses on developing routines and behavioural changes, such as sleep habits and activity planning, which can improve energy, motivation and day-to-day functioning.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, try different strategies, and adjust methods to match what works best for the person's needs and preferences. This collaborative process helps make sure sessions stay relevant and practical.
Online therapy is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to suit different schedules and situations. Video sessions are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone calls work well when bandwidth is limited, live chat can fit a short check-in and messaging allows ongoing reflection between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family life and travel while keeping treatment consistent and flexible.
