About Amanda
Amanda Brady is a therapeutic counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and has five years of practice in the United Kingdom. She works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and relationship difficulties. She also supports those dealing with ADHD, addiction concerns, trauma and issues around intimacy and self-esteem.
Amanda uses a mix of evidence-informed approaches to support people who feel stuck after a change in work, relationships or health. In sessions she focuses on what is happening now, and on patterns that repeat in relationships. Conversations are practical and direct, looking at ways to manage feelings and improve day-to-day functioning.
She draws on attachment-based ideas to look at how early relationships affect current bonds and closeness. Cognitive behavioural techniques are used to spot thinking patterns that increase worry or low mood, and to try small, manageable experiments to change them. When trauma is present, she uses trauma-informed methods to help people talk through painful memories safely.
Amanda also uses client-centred and psychodynamic ways of working to listen for underlying themes such as abandonment, family of origin issues, or difficulties with commitment and control. She pays attention to how past experiences can show up in current choices, relationships and career decisions.
Sessions can cover parenting stress, grief, body image and eating issues, communication problems, and coping with life transitions. For people wanting a sharper focus on direction and purpose, she combines therapeutic work with practical coaching to clarify next steps.

How Amanda uses different approaches in online work
Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current closeness and trust. Online sessions can use these ideas to understand repeating patterns in relationships and to try new ways of connecting. Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) focuses on the links between thoughts, feelings and behaviour. In an online setting CBT helps people spot unhelpful thinking, try small behavioural experiments and build coping strategies for anxiety or low mood.Finding the right approach is part of the work. Amanda will talk with each person about their needs and goals, and together they will choose which methods to use. That collaborative decision is reviewed as therapy progresses, so the plan can change if something does not fit.
The original biography does not list specific online session formats, so confirm the current options before booking. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. It also allows people to use techniques such as worksheets, thought records and paced exposure tasks during or between sessions to support progress.
