Person-focused counsellor for stress and trauma
About Amanda
Amanda Osman works from a person-focused approach and centres the conversation on each individual’s experience. She uses Client-Centred Therapy and Internal Family Systems to help people make sense of stress, anxiety, trauma and low mood. Amanda makes straightforward, practical space for people to talk and reflect.
She holds a BACP credential, which is recorded in the UK. Amanda draws on 12 years of professional experience supporting people who are managing depression, low self-esteem and ADHD-related struggles.
Background and approach
She also focuses on communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and women’s issues. Sessions with Amanda aim to be conversational and respectful. She treats the person in front of her as the expert on their life and looks for strengths to build on.
People can expect to talk through feelings, behaviours and the practical patterns that keep problems stuck. Using Internal Family Systems, she helps people notice different parts of themselves and how those parts interact. Through a Client-Centred stance, she offers a warm, non-judgemental presence that follows what matters most to the client.
Her approach is paced to the individual. Amanda works at a practical pace, helping people set small, manageable goals and notice small changes. She encourages honest conversation about expectations and progress so therapy can be adjusted as needed.

How Amanda's approaches work online
Client-Centred Therapy places the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The therapist follows the client’s lead, reflects what is said and helps people clarify their own goals and values. This style suits worries such as anxiety, low mood and self-esteem issues.Internal Family Systems looks at the different parts inside a person and how they relate. It helps people identify protective parts and vulnerable parts, and to develop different ways of responding to stress or trauma. This approach can be useful for working through trauma, shame and internal conflict.
Choosing the right approach is a joint process. Amanda will discuss options with the client and together they will decide what feels most helpful for the problem at hand. This collaborative planning includes trying things out and adjusting the way of working as progress is made.
Online sessions can be arranged as video calls, phone conversations, live chat or text-based messaging. Video is useful when visual connection helps the conversation. Phone sessions can be a good fit when bandwidth is limited or a quicker check-in is needed. Messaging and live chat let people work in shorter bursts and fit therapy around busy days. These formats make it easier to access regular support from wherever the client is in the United Kingdom.
