About Amanda
Amanda Turner is a counsellor with seven years' experience helping people through difficult times. She works in the United Kingdom and holds BACP registration. Amanda offers a warm, non-judgemental approach that lets clients guide each session. She aims to make talking about painful things feel manageable and straightforward.
Her style is person-centred, so the client decides the focus and pace. Amanda listens for what matters most and reflects back observations to help people make sense of their feelings. She draws on practical tools from cognitive behavioural therapy to challenge unhelpful thoughts when needed.
Mindfulness techniques are also used to help with stress, sleep and anxiety. Amanda helps people notice their present experience and build small habits for calmer days. She combines these methods with simple coaching to support life changes and goal setting.
People see Amanda for a range of concerns including low mood, grief, relationship stress, addictions, anger and identity questions. She also works with issues such as body image, attachment difficulties, ADHD and career stress. Sessions tend to focus on what the person wants to change and what feels achievable next.
Amanda describes herself as approachable and understanding, and she draws on her own experiences of trauma to stay empathetic. To start, people complete a short matching questionnaire and then arrange sessions according to the therapist's availability. Sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.
How Amanda’s approaches work online
Amanda combines person-centred listening with clear techniques from cognitive behavioural therapy and mindfulness to support people online. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on the individual's own goals and experiences, with the counsellor offering empathic listening and gentle reflection to help clarify feelings and choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour and uses practical exercises to change unhelpful patterns. Mindfulness Therapy brings attention to the present moment and teaches simple practices for stress reduction and improved sleep.Choosing the right mix of approaches is a collaborative process. Amanda will work with each person to decide which methods feel most helpful, based on their concerns, aims and preferences. Together they set small, achievable steps and review what’s working as therapy progresses.
Practical benefits of online therapy include easier fitting of sessions into a busy day and fewer disruptions to travel. Online work can allow shorter check-ins when time is tight, or sessions that focus on breathing and grounding without needing any materials. Confirm the current session options before booking so you know what formats are available, and expect the therapist to help adapt techniques to your day-to-day life.
