About Amanda
Amanda helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety and depression. She also supports those affected by trauma and abuse, and people wanting to build self-esteem and confidence. She aims to tailor conversations and any plan to each person’s particular needs.
Her approach is gentle and practical. Sessions are conversational and aimed at helping people manage day-to-day challenges. Amanda emphasises compassion and sensitivity while working through painful or confusing issues.
She also gives attention to attachment issues, forgiveness, narcissism, post-traumatic stress and self-love. These areas are woven into sessions when they are relevant to what a person brings to therapy. The emphasis is on small, manageable steps rather than quick fixes.
Amanda acknowledges that starting therapy takes courage and she aims to make the first steps straightforward. She works to adapt the pace and focus so people feel heard and supported as they work toward clearer coping and better emotional balance.

Therapeutic techniques and working online
Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on understanding feelings and building coping skills. One common approach she draws on helps people identify and change unhelpful thinking patterns so they feel less anxious or depressed. Another approach concentrates on processing and reducing the impact of traumatic memories so day-to-day life feels less overwhelming.Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will talk through options and adapt methods to match a person's goals, preferences and pace. Together they decide which techniques suit the issue at hand and how to use them practically in sessions.
Please confirm the exact online session options before booking as the biography does not list specific formats. Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and travel. It can also allow a shorter check-in when time is limited or a phone-only conversation when less bandwidth is available. Registered or accredited professionals can help make online therapy a workable part of everyday life.
