Hello and thank you for looking at my profile. I understand how hard it can be to chose the right counsellor. I offer my clients an understanding person-centred approach that is non-judgmental and honest/friendly. The focus of my counselling is decided by the client, who can discuss what might help. I encourage the client to lead the session as I believe that it is the client’s journey since they are experts about their own lives. This allows me to be in the client’s world, supporting them emotionally along their journey to recovery.

I facilitate the process by supporting the client to look at their life journey and help them clarify what they think and how they feel it. My results have shown this process is effective for a wide range of problems and issues. I talk about things they wish in a context that is supportive and facilitative.

Most clients come to me with some form of a loss. This could be in the form of low mood, anxiety, grief, relationship problems, transitions in life, addictions, sexuality and anger issues among others.

I am open minded, approachable, friendly, understanding, and a caring person. I myself have experience some of life’s traumas. I know what it is like to want to talk to someone about how you really feel inside but you don’t because you don’t want people to gossip or be upset for you. Everyone needs a release their emotions at some point in their life and I a safe non-judgmental environment for you to do that.

Online counseling, sometimes called teletherapy, refers to talk therapy delivered remotely through digital platforms, such as video calls, phone calls, or chat. It can be a great option for people who face barriers to traditional face-to-face therapy, such as those living in remote areas, individuals with mobility issues, or people with busy schedules that make it difficult to attend in-person sessions.

Teletherapy also offers greater convenience and flexibility, allowing clients to access care from the comfort of their homes. Research shows that the treatment outcomes with online counseling are often just as effective as with traditional therapy, providing a viable alternative for individuals seeking mental health support.

Amanda is the first therapist that actually gets me. I feel 100% safe to share my most chaotic and deepest thoughts with her. I always leave our sessions feeling empowered and strong. Even tho sometimes it feels like it’s impossible to get up on my feet. She makes my life so much easier by giving me great advice and tasks to work on. On top she always replies to messages quick. She helped me through one of the hardest times and was there for me. It’s obvious that she cares deeply about her patients and wants to do everything in her power to help. Thank you Amanda ❤️

I've been in therapy many times and I've had many different therapists, but Amanda is the first one that makes me feel heard. I don't feel like I'm just another piggy bank to her or another checklist, she genuinely listens and seems to care as well. I've made more progress in a few months with Amanda than with other therapists for years. I strongly recommend her and I'm grateful we got matched.

I have been having regular session with Amanda for almost a tear now. She has helped me so much, I still can't truly comprehend how much I have learned, realised and healed during and thanks to our sessions . She is very positive and understanding, creates very friendly and safe atmosphere for me to talk about everything. She does remember specific details about my story, even things I have shared long ago, and this helps so much in understanding emotions and habits. I truly recommend her as a therapist as she very human and understanding while being professional and competent and always leave me with the feeling that she is eager to help me.

Amanda has been great from the beginning, really understanding and easy to talk to. She asks all the right questions and gives you space to talk. I've had 3 different experiences with other therapists outside of better help and Amanda is by far the one I feel I can truly make some meaningful, positive changes with.
