About me

I'm Amanda a therapist dedicated to empowering adults on their path to recovery from trauma. If you've landed here, you may have frequent anxiety, depression, complex emotions, or challenges in your relationships. Traumatic events and abusive relationships at any age can effect your identity and leave you feeling stuck in the past.

If life feels like it keeps repeating the same cycles, it may be time for change. You can move forward.

You can expect curiosity, compassion and some respectful challenge in our sessions. Overtime we will create a relationship that helps you to improve your confidence,  boundaries, and connections. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a highly trained UKCP Registered Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapist, with a background in Transactional Analysis. I draw on a variety of evidence-based theories to create a tailored approach that aligns with your needs.

I hold a Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy with seven years experience working in primary care and voluntary agencies.

I primarily work with client's who have complex emotional needs, have experienced historical abuse, and those seeking a neuroaffirmative practice.
