About Amanda
Amanda Burridge welcomes people who are struggling with sleep, stress or low mood and who want practical help and calm support. She is Amanda Burridge, a counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Her manner is gentle and down to earth, and she aims to make talking about hard things feel straightforward.
Amanda listens without rushing. She works collaboratively to help people notice small changes that make a difference day to day. Sessions are conversational and grounded in what matters to each person rather than in jargon or tests.
Her background includes work supporting people through grief and loss, and helping those coping with cancer and serious illness. She has also worked with common concerns such as anxiety, depression, low self esteem, relationship strain, parenting pressures and difficulties with sleep.
Amanda draws on Client-Centred Therapy to keep the focus on the person's experience and feelings. She also uses elements of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, offering simple, practical ways to spot patterns and try small behavioural changes.
With four years of recent professional experience and BACP registration, Amanda aims to combine warmth with clear, usable steps. If someone wants a calm, human approach to getting better rest, managing stress or finding direction, she invites them to begin with a short matching questionnaire and then schedule a session.
How Amanda uses talking therapy approaches online
Amanda works with two core approaches that translate well to conversations over distance. Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and understanding a person's experience. The therapist reflects back what is said and follows the person's pace so they feel heard and able to explore feelings and choices.Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, or CBT, looks at how thoughts, feelings and actions connect. Amanda can use simple CBT-based exercises to help identify unhelpful patterns and try practical changes that may improve sleep, mood and stress management.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda collaborates with each person to decide which methods to try based on their needs, goals and preferences. She checks in regularly and adjusts the plan as things change so the work stays relevant and manageable.
Session formats are not specified in the original profile, so confirm current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into everyday life by removing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins around commitments, or offering alternatives when being on camera is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals can offer these practical ways of working to help maintain continuity of care and make sessions easier to attend.
