About me

Hi, I’m Amanda, a dedicated and compassionate integrative counsellor. I work exclusively online and strive to create a warm and understanding space where clients can explore and enhance their mental wellbeing.

I work with a broad range of presenting issues, including; anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship challenges and life transitions.

My Approach:
As an integrative counsellor, my practice is rooted in the person-centred approach, which emphasises empathy, unconditional positive regard, and genuine understanding. I also incorporate techniques from other therapeutic models to best suit your individual needs.

Why Choose Me:
I am committed to creating a safe, non-judgmental space where you can openly explore your thoughts and feelings. My goal is to empower you with the tools and insights needed to navigate life’s challenges and achieve personal growth. Whether you’re dealing with a specific issue or seeking general support, I am here to help you find clarity and balance.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
