Amanda Canavan MNCS (Accred)
About me
I offer every session with a warm, sensitive and confidential approach, as I take pride in understanding in-depth the issues that are having an impact on your life. We will work together, so you won't feel alone and feel comfortable in our sessions. I give all my attention to help each client to see potential in themselves in our sessions.
I provide a non-judgemental service to every client. It is important for me as a counsellor to provide a safe environment to help with any issues that may be presented in the counselling room. Examples of theories I use are Person-Centred, CBT and psychodynamic. I believe it is important to provide such approaches as everyone is unique, and their journey in counselling will be my priority.
