About Amanda
Counsellor Amanda "Mandy" Roberts is registered with the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS) and has 14 years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and intimacy issues, trauma and abuse, grief, ADHD and career-related difficulties. Sessions are offered in English and international clients are accepted.
Mandy aims to work in a person-centred way, keeping the focus on what matters to the client right now. Short-term practical tools such as cognitive behavioural techniques and mindfulness are used to help steady mood and thinking. If someone is ready, she may also look at deeper patterns linked to early attachment and past experiences.
She describes using elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy to help people notice and accept difficult thoughts and feelings while focusing on valued actions. Attachment-based ideas are used to understand patterns in close relationships and how past experiences shape current reactions. Dialectical behaviour approaches and client-centred listening are drawn on when emotion regulation or stronger emotional responses are present.
Mandy sometimes offers guided meditations or exercises between sessions to support practice outside the room. The work is paced to the individual, with the option to pause or stop when the person wishes. Sessions look at practical coping, underlying feelings, and ways to respond differently to stressful situations.
People who choose to work with her can expect steady, clear language and a focus on what helps in day-to-day life. She invites clients to explore both present difficulties and, when appropriate, the deeper patterns that maintain them.
How Mandy uses therapeutic approaches online
Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) helps people notice difficult thoughts and feelings without getting pulled into them. It focuses on values and small actions that make life more workable, and can help with anxiety, depression and stress.Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationships shape current patterns in close relationships. It helps people understand why they react in certain ways and can be useful for intimacy, trust and communication difficulties.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mandy will discuss what feels most helpful and try different ways of working based on the person's needs, goals and preferences. The choice is collaborative and reviewed as progress or challenges emerge.
The original biography does not list specific session formats, so confirm which online options are available before booking. People often choose remote sessions because they can fit appointments around work or family, avoid travel time, or use shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists commonly adapt exercises, guided meditations and practical tools so they can be used between sessions to support day-to-day coping.
