About Amanda
Amanda Walsh is a BACP counsellor based in the United Kingdom with eight years of professional experience. She works with people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, sleep problems, low self-esteem, depression, addictions and anger. She also supports clients with relationship and intimacy issues, grief, career stresses, bipolar difficulties, ADHD and compulsive behaviours.
Amanda keeps conversations straightforward. Sessions focus on what is happening now, what increases distress, and what small changes could help. She listens for patterns that feed anger or anxiety and helps people try different ways of responding when they feel overwhelmed.
Her background includes work with trauma and abuse, and with behaviours such as hoarding and obsessive compulsions. That experience informs how she plans practical steps for safety, routines and clearer thinking. She encourages gradual changes rather than big one-off fixes.
Therapy sessions include talking, setting short goals and practising skills between meetings. Amanda explains ideas in everyday language and checks that techniques fit the client’s life. This practical focus aims to make time spent in sessions feel useful and directly relevant.
If someone is unsure about starting, she asks about their main concerns and what they hope to change. The first work together often establishes simple ways to reduce anger spikes, improve sleep or manage anxiety so other areas become easier to face.
Practical approaches for online working
Amanda uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on changing how people respond to strong feelings. Cognitive-style methods look at unhelpful thoughts and test them against real-life evidence, which can reduce anxiety and the intensity of anger reactions.Behavioural techniques target routines and habits. This can include small experiments to alter sleep patterns, reduce compulsive actions or introduce calmer ways to handle frustration at work or at home.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss options and agree on methods based on the client’s needs, goals and preferences. Decisions are collaborative and can change as progress is made.
Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week and reduce travel time. Please confirm which session formats are offered before booking, as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Many people find shorter check-ins useful between longer sessions, and phone or video choices can help when quieter surroundings or lower bandwidth are needed.
