About Amanda
Amanda "Mandy" Roberts is an NCPS counsellor in the United Kingdom with 14 years of experience. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and self-esteem concerns, as well as trauma, grief, sleep problems, anger and issues related to intimacy. Mandy also supports people dealing with career change, compassion fatigue and ADHD-related challenges.
Mandy uses Emotionally-Focused Therapy alongside client-centred, cognitive behavioural and attachment-based ideas. Sessions often start with what is happening now and move at a pace chosen by the client. When helpful, she will look at deeper relationship and attachment patterns to name underlying feelings and behaviours.
Her sessions mix practical strategies and reflective work. That can include simple mindfulness exercises, thought-challenging techniques from CBT, and focusing on emotional responses to improve understanding. She sometimes provides bespoke meditations for people to practise between meetings.
Mandy pays attention to how past experiences shape present reactions. She may work with material about abandonment, body image, or family problems when it is relevant. The emphasis is on noticing feelings and learning ways to respond that reduce reactivity and increase calm.
Many clients appreciate an unhurried approach. Mandy encourages clients to take the pace that suits them and to decide how long to continue. International clients can be supported in English, and practical arrangements are explained when getting started.
How her approaches translate to online sessions
A key method Mandy uses is Emotionally-Focused Therapy. EFT focuses on recognising and naming core emotions and how they shape close relationships and personal patterns. It can be useful when feelings are hard to describe but clearly influence behaviour. She also uses Acceptance and Commitment Therapy in some sessions. ACT helps people notice thoughts and feelings without getting stuck in them, and then choose actions that match their values. Attachment-based work looks at early relationship patterns and how those affect current connections and reactions. Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mandy will discuss preferences and goals and adapt methods collaboratively. That might mean spending more time on immediate coping strategies, learning emotion-focused techniques, or combining approaches across sessions. Please confirm the exact session options before booking, as the profile does not list formats. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. They can also be arranged to suit quieter or lower-bandwidth circumstances, and to fit around work or family commitments.Areas of expertise
