About Amanda
Counsellor Amanda Osman is a BACP member with 12 years' experience. She works with stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, self esteem, depression and ADHD, and also focuses on communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and women's issues.
Amanda uses a person-centred style. She treats the person as the expert in their own life and aims to listen without judgement. Sessions focus on what matters most to the client and on small, practical steps that feel possible between meetings.
She also uses Internal Family Systems ideas to help people understand different parts of themselves. That approach looks at the roles those parts play and how they affect feelings and behaviour. It can be useful when past hurt or trauma keeps repeating in daily life.
Amanda works in clear, straightforward language. Conversations tend to unpack emotions and patterns, and then test small changes to see what helps. She encourages clients to notice strengths they already have and to try out new ways of coping.
People who want to start are asked to complete a short matching questionnaire, then book a first session. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time. Sessions are offered in English and Amanda does not take international clients.
How Amanda brings Client-Centred work and IFS online
Amanda draws on Client-Centred Therapy, which focuses on listening and reflecting what matters to the client. That approach helps when people feel overwhelmed by emotions and need someone to follow their lead rather than direct them.She also uses Internal Family Systems ideas to identify different parts of a person's inner life. This can help when past hurts or recurring patterns keep affecting day-to-day choices, by naming and working with those parts in conversation.
Finding the right approach is part of therapy. Amanda will work with the client to decide which methods suit their needs, goals and preferences. The choice is collaborative and may change over time as sessions progress.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions into a busy week, cut travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals can use remote sessions to keep continuity of care when meeting in person is difficult.
