About Mandy
Mandy Hedges offers person-centred counselling with practical tools to help people manage difficult feelings. She greets clients with a calm, approachable manner and creates a space to talk through stress, anxiety, grief and depression. Her style is straightforward and warm, aimed at helping people feel heard and understood from the first session.
With 15 years of experience Mandy blends client-centred work with cognitive behavioural techniques. She helps people spot unhelpful thinking, try small behavioural experiments and build coping strategies that fit daily life.
Background and approach
She also draws on Jungian ideas to explore personal meaning and Solution-Focused methods to set clear, short-term goals. Mandy routinely supports people dealing with addictions, trauma and abuse, relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and body-image concerns, and self-esteem problems. She also works with those facing chronic illness or pain, bipolar moods, and the strain of major life changes.
She pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues when these affect current relationships. She is registered with BACP and NCPS, which are shown as her listed credentials. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging.
She practises from the United Kingdom. To begin, Mandy asks people to complete a short matching questionnaire and then schedule sessions that suit them. Her approach aims to be collaborative, helping each person choose which techniques feel most useful and practical for their life.

Approaches Mandy lists
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
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. Mandy will talk with each person about their goals and preferences and suggest a way forward. That plan can change as progress is made, and decisions about techniques are taken collaboratively rather than imposed.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat and text messaging to make counselling easier to fit into life. Video is useful when visual cues matter, phone calls can be easier when bandwidth is low, live chat suits shorter check-ins, and text messaging lets people reflect in writing between sessions. These options aim to give practical flexibility so therapy can continue around work, childcare and other commitments.
