Amanda Brady is a therapeutic counsellor who works from a practical, person-focused perspective. She uses straightforward conversation to help people manage stress, anxiety and low mood. Amanda acknowledges strengths people already have and builds on them in therapy.

She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships shape current patterns. That can help with abandonment worries, intimacy-related issues and communication problems. Amanda also uses client-centred methods to keep sessions focused on the person’s experience and choices.

Background and approach

Cognitive behavioural techniques are used when thoughts and behaviours are getting in the way. These give concrete strategies for symptoms such as anxiety, sleep problems, eating concerns and addictive behaviours. Trauma-focused practices are offered for people who have experienced abuse or other traumatic events.

Amanda has five years of experience working with a wide range of concerns including ADHD, autism and family of origin issues. She also supports people facing career stress, parenting strain, grief and compassion fatigue. Her approach blends talking, practical exercises and reflection so the work feels manageable.

Sessions are offered in English and Amanda accepts international clients. She is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. That registration is shown as BACP on her profile.

How Amanda’s approaches work online

Amanda uses attachment-based therapy to help people understand how early relationships affect current patterns. This approach looks at trust, closeness and fears of abandonment and can help with intimacy problems and communication difficulties.

She also uses client-centred therapy which focuses on listening without judgement and following the person’s own pace. That approach helps people feel heard and supports them to find their own solutions in areas like self-esteem, career worries or family of origin issues.

Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss goals and preferences in early sessions and try methods that fit the person’s needs. She adapts the mix of talking, practical exercises and thought-based techniques so the sessions remain collaborative and goal-focused.

Online formats include video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation and visual cues. Phone sessions can be easier when bandwidth is limited or when someone prefers not to be on camera. Live chat and text messaging suit brief check-ins, written reflection, or flexible support between longer sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel commitments.
