About Amanda
Amanda Salvara is a counsellor with five years' experience supporting people across the United Kingdom and internationally. She holds BACP accreditation and focuses on helping clients who are struggling with stress, anxiety, depression and trauma. Amanda aims to create a calm, respectful space where people can speak honestly and be heard.
Her style is collaborative and down-to-earth. She listens for patterns that keep people stuck and helps them test small, practical changes.
Background and approach
Amanda uses proven conversational methods to reduce overwhelm and rebuild confidence in day-to-day life. In sessions she draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and mindfulness practices among other approaches. That mix allows her to support a wide range of issues from low self-esteem to post-traumatic stress and relationship difficulties.
She explains tools clearly and helps clients practise them between sessions. Amanda also works with concerns such as abandonment, attachment issues, body image and guilt and shame. She pays attention to cultural context and the ways life transitions, money worries and isolation can affect mood and purpose.
People who prefer practical steps, a compassionate listener and a flexible, personalised plan tend to find her approach helpful. She offers video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging to make it easier to fit therapy into busy lives.

Online support
The choice of approach is something to explore together. Amanda treats the process as collaborative and will help you find which methods suit your needs, goals and personal preferences. Therapy can be adapted over time as priorities shift and new coping skills are practised.
Online sessions make it easier to fit therapy into daily life. Video calls let you work face to face from wherever you are. Phone sessions or live chat can be useful when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection and shorter exchanges between scheduled sessions. Registered and accredited professionals, including therapists like Amanda, offer these formats to increase access and flexibility for people seeking help.
