Amanda Blok uses a client-centred approach to help people feel heard and understood. She encourages open conversation and listens without judgement. Amanda aims to make the first steps toward change feel manageable and supported.

She has 15 years of experience working in the United Kingdom and focuses on stress, anxiety and depression. She also helps people deal with relationship and family tensions, trauma and abuse, grief and eating concerns. Amanda works with a wide range of mood and behavioural difficulties including bipolar and ADHD-related challenges.

Background and approach

Sessions are straightforward and conversational. Amanda helps clients name what matters most, sort through emotions and try practical ways to cope. She pays attention to attachment and abandonment issues, communication problems and feelings of isolation or jealousy.

She also supports people facing caregiver stress, divorce and separation, money worries and career uncertainty. Multicultural concerns, guilt, shame and issues around forgiveness are part of her practice. Amanda offers a calm presence while helping people test new ways of relating and making choices.

Therapy is tailored to each person’s situation and goals. Amanda works with clients to set clear priorities and build small steps toward change. Her aim is to help people feel steadier and better able to manage life’s challenges over time.

Client-centred therapy online and how it helps

Amanda practices client-centred therapy, which puts the person’s experience at the heart of the work. The counsellor listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people make sense of their feelings. This approach is useful for anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties and issues around grief or identity.

In sessions Amanda offers a calm, accepting presence and helps clients set their own goals. She works collaboratively to find what style and pace suit each person. Deciding which approach to use is part of therapy, and the therapist will check in regularly to adjust methods based on the client’s needs and preferences.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video lets people see non-verbal cues and have longer, face-to-face style conversations. Phone sessions can be simpler when bandwidth is limited or a quieter voice-only check-in is needed. Live chat and messaging suit short check-ins, reflective writing and people who prefer not to use video. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, caring duties or travel and help maintain continuity when life is busy.
