Amanda Wayling-Yates helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship strain and major life changes. She has six years of professional experience and holds NCPS as a credential. Her approach is warm and non-judgemental, aimed at helping people find practical ways to feel better day to day.

Amanda believes each person knows their own story and brings strengths to change. In sessions she listens first, then aims to reflect concerns back in a clear way.

Background and approach

Conversations focus on what is happening now and what small steps could help between meetings. She works with people facing parenting pressures, workplace issues, grief and trauma. She also supports those dealing with mood differences such as depression and bipolar, attention difficulties, and problems with sleep or eating.

Relationship and intimacy topics are part of her practice as well. Amanda uses a client-centred style that puts the person at the centre of decisions. That means sessions are shaped around the individual's goals and pace rather than a fixed agenda.

People can expect straightforward talk, gentle challenge and practical ideas to try at home. Her background includes six years of hands-on work in the United Kingdom. Amanda aims to make the process simple and respectful so people can focus on the issues that matter to them.

Taking the first step can feel hard, and she offers steady support along the way.

How client-centred therapy works online

Amanda uses a client-centred approach, which focuses on listening and following the person's lead. The counsellor reflects back what is said, helps clarify feelings and supports clients to set their own goals. This method can help with anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship worries and coping with life changes.

The first part of work together is finding what fits. Amanda will talk with each person about their needs, goals and style, and together they decide how to proceed. That collaborative decision-making helps shape the pace, focus and techniques used during sessions.

Online sessions are offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation when needed. Phone sessions need less bandwidth and can fit into a shorter break. Live chat or messaging can be useful for brief check-ins, ongoing support or when writing feels easier than speaking. These options make it simpler to fit therapy around work, family life and other commitments.
