About Amanda
Amanda Turner is a counsellor with seven years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She presents herself as warm and approachable, and offers a client-focused, person-centred way of working where the client directs the session. Amanda uses a straightforward style and encourages people to talk through what matters to them most.
Amanda aims to be non-judgemental and honest while helping clients name thoughts and feelings. She supports people who are dealing with loss, low mood, anxiety, grief, relationship strain, life transitions, addictions and anger. Sleeping and eating concerns are also included among the issues she addresses.
In sessions she helps people follow their own pace and make sense of their life story. She asks questions that encourage clarity and reflection, and she stays alongside clients as they consider next steps. The work is conversational rather than directive, with room for emotion and practical planning.
Amanda draws on approaches such as Client-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness Therapy to shape conversations and exercises. These methods are used to explore thinking patterns, build coping skills and increase present-moment awareness.
She is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP, and works in English. To begin, people use the Start Therapy button and complete a short matching questionnaire before scheduling sessions according to availability.
How Amanda’s approaches work in online counselling
Amanda uses Client-Centred Therapy to keep the client's experience at the heart of sessions. This means the conversation follows what matters most to the person and the counsellor offers empathic listening and reflective feedback to help make sense of feelings.She also applies Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, which looks at how thoughts, feelings and behaviours connect. CBT techniques can help with anxiety, low mood, sleep problems and unhelpful habits by teaching simple coping strategies and ways to test unhelpful thinking.
Mindfulness Therapy is used to develop present-moment awareness and reduce reactivity. Short mindfulness exercises and breathing practices are offered to help manage stress and support better sleep patterns.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda discusses options with each person and adapts the mix of listening, practical exercises and reflective tasks to match goals and preferences. The plan is agreed collaboratively and reviewed as work progresses.
If you are considering online sessions, please confirm the exact session formats available before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit meetings around everyday life, avoid travel time and maintain continuity when schedules are busy. Different session arrangements also allow for shorter check-ins or longer therapeutic blocks to suit your needs.
