About Amanda
Amanda Wild is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, depression and parenting concerns. She also helps with relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse, addictions, anger and low self-esteem. Amanda works with issues from both the present and the past, aiming to make the conversation clear and practical.
Amanda trained as an integrative therapeutic counsellor and is a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy, often abbreviated as BACP.
Background and approach
That professional membership guides how she works and the standards she follows. She has eight years of experience with a mix of shorter and longer term work. Sessions are conversational and focused on what matters to the person in front of her.
Amanda draws on a range of approaches to match the needs of each person rather than using a single formula. She listens closely, reflects what she hears and helps people try small changes between appointments. She has particular experience supporting people who have survived sexual or domestic abuse.
Amanda also works with concerns around body image, self-harm, grief, midlife change, and complex feelings such as guilt and shame. Her approach aims to balance emotional understanding with practical strategies. Many clients come wanting clear coping tools alongside deeper reflection.
Amanda combines short-term goals with space for exploring longer-standing patterns. That flexibility means sessions can suit people looking for quick-focused work or those wanting more time to look at root causes.

How Amanda uses different approaches online
Amanda often draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening closely and helping people find their own solutions by reflecting their experiences back in a warm, non-judgemental way. This approach helps when someone needs greater clarity about feelings and values.She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, commonly called CBT, to help people spot unhelpful thoughts and try practical steps to change patterns of thinking and behaviour. CBT works well for anxiety, low mood and stress by giving clear tools to practise between sessions.
Choosing the right approach is a collaborative process. Amanda will talk with each person about their goals, preferences and what has or hasn't helped before. Together they decide whether to focus on short-term problem solving, deeper reflection, or a mix of both and then adapt the plan over time.
Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging to give flexibility. Video is useful for a full conversational session, phone can be easier if bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and text messaging allows brief notes or ongoing support between appointments. These options help people fit therapy around work, childcare and other commitments while keeping therapy accessible.
