Ways of working Amanda names
Naming an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor lists and does not check training records.
Person-centred care online and what it offers
Amanda works mainly from a person-centred perspective. This approach emphasises the client as the expert in their own life and focuses on creating an accepting, empathic relationship where people can reflect on their feelings and choices. It can help with low mood, anxiety, grief, and questions about identity and purpose.She also draws on relational ideas, which pay attention to how people connect and form patterns in relationships. This can be useful for addressing attachment issues, codependency, jealousy, and difficulties that repeat across relationships. Together these approaches aim to help people better understand themselves and make changes that feel right for them.
Finding the right approach is part of the process, and Amanda works collaboratively to decide what suits each person. She will discuss goals, preferences and practical needs and adjust the way sessions run accordingly. That collaborative work helps shape how therapy proceeds.
Online therapy is offered through video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls are a close approximation of face-to-face work and suit longer sessions. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or someone prefers not to use a camera. Live chat and text-based messaging can fit short check-ins, brief reflections between sessions, or people who communicate better in writing. These options make therapy more flexible and easier to fit around work, family life or other commitments.
