Amanda Brady , BACP

Amanda Brady is a therapeutic counsellor registered in the United Kingdom with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, a professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists. With five years of clinical experience, she works with people facing a range of emotional and practical challenges and aims to create a supportive environment where strengths can be noticed and developed.

Amanda has worked with individuals dealing with depression and anxiety as well as those navigating relationship difficulties, parenting concerns, workplace stress, and low self-esteem. She also supports people living with OCD, autism spectrum conditions, and ADHD, and she has experience helping those who have experienced trauma or emotional abuse. Her practice emphasizes practical tools alongside exploration of underlying patterns to help clients move toward clearer goals.

Amanda approaches therapy with the belief that people already have resources they can draw on, and that reaching out for help is an important first step. She works collaboratively to identify priorities and to build steps clients can take between sessions, offering calm, attentive support while focusing on each person’s unique needs and goals.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Amanda integrates several evidence-informed approaches to tailor therapy to each person she meets. Attachment-Based Therapy looks at how early relationship patterns affect current connections and emotional responses - it is useful for people struggling with trust, abandonment, or intimacy concerns. Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes empathic listening and the client’s own capacity to find solutions - it helps people feel heard and supported while they decide on meaningful changes. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or CBT focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and behaviors and building practical strategies to reduce distress and improve daily functioning.

Finding the right approach is part of the therapeutic journey and Amanda works collaboratively with clients to determine which methods fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She discusses options openly and adjusts the focus over time so therapy stays responsive and practical.

Online sessions are offered by video call, phone, live chat, or text-based messaging, providing flexibility for different schedules and situations. These formats make it easier to maintain continuity of care, access support from different locations, and choose the way of communicating that feels most comfortable for the client.
