About Amanda
Amanda Osman works from a person-centred perspective that puts the individual’s experience first. She holds BACP accreditation and brings 12 years of professional experience to her practice. Amanda focuses on helping people manage stress, anxiety, trauma and abuse, low self-esteem and depression, and the challenges of ADHD.
Her approach starts with listening. She treats each person as the expert on their own life and looks for strengths to build on.
Background and approach
In sessions she offers a calm, non-judgemental space to talk through difficult feelings and confusing thoughts. Amanda uses Client-Centred Therapy to reflect what clients say and to help them feel heard. She also draws on Internal Family Systems ideas to help people understand different parts of themselves and how those parts affect behaviour and emotions.
She supports people working through communication problems, guilt and shame, isolation and loneliness, and issues commonly experienced by women. Amanda aims to help clients find clearer ways to make decisions and cope day to day. Taking the first step can feel daunting, and Amanda encourages small, practical steps.
She works collaboratively to set goals and to adapt the pace and focus to what makes sense for each person.

How Amanda works online
She also draws on Internal Family Systems, a way of understanding different ‘parts’ of a person and how they influence feelings and choices. This can be useful for working with trauma responses, shame or patterns that keep repeating.
Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amanda will work with clients to identify goals and try methods that fit their needs and preferences. That decision is collaborative and can change as the work progresses.
Confirm the session formats before booking, as specific online options are not listed in the biography. Online work can make it easier to fit therapy into a busy life, for example by reducing travel time or allowing shorter check-ins during work breaks. It can also help when someone prefers not to be on camera or needs lower bandwidth. Registered or accredited professionals can adapt pace, tools and exercises to suit each person’s day-to-day routine.
