Mandy Elliott is a counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom and offers practical, down-to-earth support for people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. Mandy uses a client-centred way of working.

She treats each person as the expert in their own life. Sessions focus on listening, understanding and helping people use their own strengths to make changes.

Background and approach

Her practice covers a wide range of concerns, including relationship problems, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem, grief, sleeping difficulties, parenting strain and anger. She also supports people coping with chronic pain, illness or disability, financial worries, career uncertainty and life-purpose questions. Mandy’s background includes mindfulness and meditation that grew from her personal Buddhist practice.

She brings these techniques into sessions when they match a person’s needs, for example to help with stress, grounding after trauma, or interrupting negative thought patterns. In sessions she aims to create a calm, non-judgemental space where people can talk things through at their own pace. The focus is on practical steps and clearer thinking rather than labels.

She encourages self-understanding, confidence and gradual change. People start by describing the problem they want to address and together they agree the next steps and goals. Mandy helps people work towards increased self-worth, improved relationships and better day-to-day coping skills.

How client-centred work translates to online therapy

Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and respect. The counsellor follows the person’s lead and helps them make sense of their feelings. This approach is useful for anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship worries and coping with life changes.

Mandy also draws on mindfulness and meditation practices where helpful. Simple breathing or grounding exercises can be introduced during sessions to reduce stress and improve focus. These techniques often help people pause and respond rather than react to difficult emotions.

Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Mandy works collaboratively to decide what fits each person’s needs, goals and preferences. She will review what’s working and change course if another method would help more.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give practical flexibility. Video calls are good when face-to-face conversation helps, phone sessions work with limited bandwidth, and messaging can suit quick check-ins or people who prefer writing. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, study and family commitments, and to keep momentum between sessions.
