About

About Amanda

Amanda Wild is a BACP counsellor who helps people manage stress, anxiety, depression and relationship concerns. She also supports people dealing with trauma and abuse, addiction, body image and issues around sexuality and identity, including LGBT matters. Amanda uses straightforward, calm language and focuses on what a person needs right now.

Amanda works with both short-term goals and longer-term concerns. She draws on talking therapies that look at current patterns, past experiences and practical coping strategies.

Background and approach

Sessions aim to help people make small changes that add up over time. Her practice includes helping people who face parenting pressures, career uncertainty, midlife change and the emotional fallout from separation or blended family dynamics. She also supports those coping with guilt, shame, self-harm thoughts and recovery after sexual or domestic abuse.

Amanda trained as a therapeutic counsellor and is a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, known as BACP. She has eight years of clinical experience and offers both brief and longer-term work depending on the person’s needs. In sessions Amanda tends to blend practical techniques with space to reflect on personal history.

She aims to create a steady, respectful conversation where people can try out new ways of thinking and behaving. People who contact her are invited to set clear goals and review progress as they go.

Online support

How Amanda's approaches translate to online support

Amanda draws on Client-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in her work. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on creating a respectful, non-judgemental space where a person can speak openly and be listened to; it helps with emotional healing and building self-understanding. Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) looks at how thoughts and behaviours affect mood and offers practical techniques to manage anxiety, low mood and unhelpful habits.

Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amanda works collaboratively to identify goals and to decide which methods feel most useful. She reviews progress together and adapts the plan as the person's needs and preferences become clearer.

Online therapy can make it easier to fit sessions into everyday life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during a workday. Because the biography does not list specific session formats, confirm the available options before booking. Registered or accredited professionals, including therapists, often use online work to maintain continuity of care and to offer flexible ways to engage with therapy.
