About Amanda

Amanda Walsh works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, sleep difficulties, low self-esteem and confidence, and problems with motivation. She is a BACP counsellor and has eight years' experience in the field.

Amanda uses straightforward, evidence-based therapeutic techniques to help people manage symptoms and make practical changes. Sessions focus on clear goals and small steps that can be put into everyday life. She listens to what matters to each person and works with them to identify helpful patterns and alternatives.

Her practice also covers a wide range of concerns including depression, addictions, relationship and family issues, grief, intimacy-related problems, eating difficulties, anger, career questions, bipolar-related challenges, and coping with life changes. Amanda has particular additional focus on hoarding, obsessions, compulsions and OCD-related behaviours.

She supports clients from LGBT communities and people managing attention and concentration differences such as ADHD. Amanda accepts international clients and offers sessions in English.

Sessions use a subscription model that can be cancelled at any time; costs vary with location. To begin, clients select the Talk to a counsellor online button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule a first session.

How Amanda uses evidence-based techniques in online sessions

Amanda works with evidence-based therapeutic techniques that focus on practical change. Cognitive approaches aim to identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try alternative ways of thinking and behaving; these approaches often help with anxiety, low mood and intrusive thoughts. Behavioural strategies concentrate on changing routines and daily habits, which can improve sleep, reduce avoidance and build momentum for recovery.

Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will discuss different techniques with each person and decide together what fits best based on needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process and can change as therapy progresses.

The practical benefits of remote counselling include easier fitting of sessions into everyday schedules and reduced travel time. Remote sessions can also make shorter check-ins simpler and allow people to choose when to use or avoid video depending on how they feel. Confirm the current session options before booking, as the biography does not list specific formats.
