About Mandy
Mandy Elliott is a therapeutic counsellor and a BACP member with eight years of professional experience in the United Kingdom. She works with adults and younger adults, including people in higher education, and sees a wide range of concerns such as anxiety, depression, stress and sleeping difficulties. Mandy emphasises a respectful, non-judgemental space where people can talk through what matters to them.
Her sessions draw on an integrative mix of approaches, with a foundation in Client-Centred Therapy and influences from Transactional Analysis and Gestalt. She also brings practices from meditation and mindfulness into her work, informed by years of personal study and practice as a practising Buddhist. These elements are used to help people build self-understanding and steady coping skills.
Mandy aims to support people who are coping with relationship strain, family problems, grief, trauma and abuse, or life transitions like separation and career change. She also works with concerns such as chronic pain, isolation, self-esteem, and questions of life purpose. Her way of working stresses listening first, and following the person’s own pace and priorities.
Therapy sessions focus on practical conversation and reflection. Mandy helps people notice strengths, make sense of difficult patterns such as attachment issues or communication problems, and try out new ways of responding. She encourages simple practices that can fit into everyday life, such as mindfulness exercises or brief grounding techniques.
To begin, Mandy asks people to choose the Start Therapy button, complete a short matching questionnaire, and schedule sessions according to availability. She supports international clients and holds sessions in English.
How Mandy’s Approach Adapts to Online Therapy
Client-Centred Therapy focuses on listening and following the person’s lead. It creates space for someone to tell their story, name their struggles, and set their own goals. This approach is helpful for difficulties like anxiety, low mood, relationship strain and sleep problems.Mindfulness and meditation practices are woven into sessions when useful. These involve simple attention exercises and breathing techniques that help with stress regulation, grounding, and easing racing thoughts that can disrupt sleep.
Finding the right blend of approaches is part of the work together. Mandy treats therapy as collaborative and will help clients decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences over time. That choice can shift as therapy progresses and as life circumstances change.
The biography does not specify which online formats are offered, so please confirm the available session options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy around study, work or parenting, reduce travel time, and allow people to keep sessions during relocation or when managing chronic illness. Some people prefer shorter check-ins by phone or lower-bandwidth options, while others value visual connection for deeper conversation; Mandy will discuss what works best for each person.
