About me and my therapy practice
Hello and welcome. I'm Amanda, a warm and friendly counsellor who is focused on you getting what you need from your therapy.
Whatever life looks like for you now, talking can help. During sessions with me, we would aim to build a relationship where you feel comfortable enough to explore everything you need to, at a pace that suits you.
If talking isn't quite enough I have a wealth of creative and practical tools we can use to help you understand what's going on and empower you to find a solution.
These can be really helpful for times when you might be feeling lost or 'stuck' or simply just not sure what to say. I'm always willing to adapt to my client's needs and will suggest things that might help, so you don't feel alone in those 'stuck' times.
I can offer short or long-term therapy, both online and in person. If you would like to get in touch, I offer a free 20-minute session or call to have a chat, so you can decide if I'm the right person for you.
Practice description
My practice is grounded in authentic connection.
Warmth, empathy and understanding are the key parts of how I work, with a little humor thrown in when appropriate! This means in sessions, I hope to help you feel safe and supported, and that this one hour a week is your time to focus on you.
This hopefully helps you get the most from your therapy.
My first session
Being a Gestalt counsellor means the relationship we build is really important, so ensuring you feel comfortable being yourself is one of my key aims.
In the first session, we will start to build this relationship. You can tell me about what's been happening for you, and I'll ask a few questions to make sure I understand. A room with me is totally free from judgment, so whether you're living with anxiety, depression, OCD, grief, a new diagnosis or any of the other things life throws at us, you can share your experience in your own words safely.
I believe counselling is a shared space, and working with me, I hope that whatever journey you are on, you know I'm in your corner.
