About Amanda
Amanda "Mandy" Roberts is an NCPS counsellor working in the United Kingdom with 14 years' experience. She helps people who are dealing with stress, anxiety, relationship strain, sleep problems, anger, low self-esteem, trauma and abuse, grief, and issues connected to family and parenting. Mandy also supports people with career pressures, compassion fatigue, ADHD and intimacy-related concerns.
She uses a person-centred approach that begins with what is happening now. Sessions are practical and paced to the client's needs. Mandy may use cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness to help clients feel steadier and clearer in daily life.
When clients want to go deeper she can explore attachment patterns and earlier life experiences. That can include work with inner child material to look at how old wounds shape current responses. She describes this as a gradual process guided by the person's readiness.
Mandy sometimes creates short meditations or exercises for people to use between sessions. She focuses on helping people identify and sit with the feelings under their difficulties. The emphasis is on learning simple coping skills and building mental resilience over time.
Sessions move at a pace the client chooses. People can focus on one immediate problem in a session, or follow a longer thread over several meetings. Mandy supports clients to pause or change direction whenever that feels right.
How sessions work
How her counselling approaches are used online
Amanda often draws on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, which helps people notice painful thoughts and feelings and decide what matters to them. ACT can be useful for stress, anxiety, difficult decisions and coping with life changes.She also uses Attachment-Based Therapy to look at relational patterns that affect current relationships. This approach can help people understand why they react strongly in close relationships and learn different ways of relating.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss the options with each person and agree a plan based on goals, needs and preferences. That planning is collaborative and can change as the work develops.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the available options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit sessions into a weekday, reduce travel time, and allow shorter check-ins when schedules are tight. Therapists can also set simple between-session practices, like brief meditations or worksheets, to support progress between meetings.
