About Amanda
Amanda Burridge is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people working through grief, stress, anxiety and low self esteem. She is calm and easy to talk to, and aims to build a supportive therapeutic connection. Amanda brings a warm, human approach to sessions and uses curiosity and occasional humour to ease difficult conversations.
She describes her way of working as gentle and caring. Sessions focus on listening, making sense of feelings, and spotting small changes that help day to day.
Background and approach
Amanda uses Client-Centred Therapy to prioritise the person's experience and perspectives in the room. She also draws on Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions. This can help with managing worry, low mood, sleep problems and stress.
Amanda combines these approaches to tailor practical steps and reflective conversations to each person. Her practice covers bereavement, coping with illness such as cancer, parenting challenges and life changes. Amanda also supports people facing issues around ageing, caregiver stress, attachment, guilt and shame, and end-of-life concerns.
She aims to help people notice strengths and possibilities even in hard times. Amanda is registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, BACP. She has four years of experience working in counselling roles and offers sessions in English.

How Amanda works online
Choosing the right approach is part of the work together. The therapist will discuss goals, preferences and what feels most helpful. This is a collaborative process and plans are adjusted as progress or new concerns emerge.
If you are considering online therapy, check which session options the therapist currently offers before booking. Confirming formats ensures you can fit sessions into everyday life, for example around work or caregiving. Online therapy can make it easier to have regular appointments, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Registered or accredited professionals use these methods to help people put coping strategies into practice between sessions.
