About Amanda
Amanda Brady is a therapeutic counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She works with people facing depression, anxiety, relationship strains and low self-esteem. Amanda offers practical, down-to-earth support and values clients' strengths as part of change.
She has five years' experience supporting people through trauma, emotional abuse and addiction concerns. Amanda also helps those managing ADHD and autism-related challenges. Her work covers practical life issues too, such as parenting stress, career changes and sleep or eating difficulties.
Background and approach
Amanda draws on a few different approaches to suit each person. Sessions focus on understanding past patterns, noticing how thoughts affect feelings, and building more helpful day-to-day routines. Conversations aim to be clear, respectful and paced to what each person can manage.
In sessions she listens for attachment and relationship patterns that can shape current struggles. She uses client-centred techniques to make space for a person’s perspective and to follow what matters most to them. Cognitive work may be used to try out new ways of thinking and acting.
People come to Amanda for support with grief, intimacy concerns, anger and major life transitions. She also works with issues such as abandonment, family of origin problems and communication difficulties. Her approach is practical and collaborative, helping people make small changes that add up over time.

Online support
She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. CBT offers practical exercises and short experiments you can try between sessions to reduce symptoms like low mood, anxiety or unhelpful routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the therapy process. Amanda will work with each person to decide which methods fit their goals and preferences. This is a collaborative decision and can change as therapy progresses.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to suit different needs. Video is good when visual connection and body language help the work. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or a quieter check-in is needed. Chat and messaging suit people who prefer written reflection or who need short, flexible contact during the week.
