Her list of interests includes body image, attachment issues, codependency and communication problems. Her working style is collaborative and person-centred.

These include client-centred methods, cognitive behavioural techniques and attachment-based ideas. She believes people can grow when given respectful space and practical support. She holds the NCPS credential, which is shown as NCPS.

Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which focuses on identifying patterns of thinking and behaviour and trying practical alternatives. CBT techniques often suit problems like anxiety, depression and stress because they include clear strategies and exercises you can use between sessions.
Finding the right approach is a shared process. Amanda will talk with each person about their goals and try ways of working that fit those aims, adjusting methods as needed. This helps clients test what feels useful and change course when something does not fit.
Online work is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging, which gives flexibility for different schedules and needs. Video is useful for a fuller conversation, phone can be easier when bandwidth is limited, and messaging or chat can suit short check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it simpler to fit therapy into work breaks, travel or busy family days.
