Calm, practical support for difficult life challenges
About Amanda
Amanda Wild is a counsellor who helps people facing stress, anxiety, low mood and relationship problems. She supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, eating concerns and issues around self‑esteem. Amanda also works with life transitions such as parenting challenges, career questions and midlife changes.
She practises a blend of approaches so sessions are shaped around the person in front of her. Conversations tend to be straightforward and focused on practical steps and understanding patterns that keep problems going.
Background and approach
Amanda draws on both short‑term strategies and longer‑term exploration depending on what someone needs. Amanda is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. That registration means she follows an ethical framework and professional standards.
She has eight years of experience working in a range of settings with differing session lengths. In therapy she offers a calm, attentive presence and encourages clear goals so progress can be measured. Sessions can include talking things through, noticing unhelpful thoughts and trying out new ways of coping.
She aims to build trust and help people find manageable next steps. People often come to her wanting relief from overwhelming feelings or help to make decisions after a difficult event. Amanda welcomes conversations about personal values, identity and recovery from abuse.
Her approach is flexible and keeps the client’s priorities at its centre.

How Amanda’s approaches work online
Amanda uses several established approaches to guide online work. Client‑centred therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead, helping people feel heard and clearer about their own choices. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at the links between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical exercises to reduce worry and low mood.Choosing the right approach is a shared process. Amanda will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful in early sessions. Together they will review whether a more exploratory or problem‑solving route is best and adapt the way they work as progress is made.
Online formats make therapy more flexible. Video calls suit deep, conversational work when clients want to see facial cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text‑based messaging offer shorter check‑ins, quick problem solving and a way to keep momentum between sessions. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, use these options to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
