Amanda Brady , BACP

Amanda Brady is a therapeutic counsellor registered in the United Kingdom with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. With five years of clinical experience, she supports people facing a wide range of concerns, including depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, parenting challenges, career uncertainty, and low self-esteem. She also works with obsessive-compulsive patterns, autism spectrum conditions (ASD), attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), and the aftereffects of trauma or emotional abuse.

Amanda approaches therapy with the belief that each person brings strengths that can be developed to overcome their current difficulties. Reaching out for help is viewed as an important first step, and her work focuses on identifying resources and practical steps that build resilience and promote meaningful change. Her practice combines evidence-informed methods to tailor support to individual needs and goals, aiming to create a collaborative and respectful therapeutic relationship grounded in professional standards.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Support

Amanda commonly draws on Attachment-Based Therapy, which explores patterns formed in early relationships to help people understand current emotional responses and improve connection and trust. This approach can be helpful for issues such as abandonment, attachment difficulties, and relationship challenges.

She also uses Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to identify and shift unhelpful thoughts and behaviors, offering practical strategies for managing anxiety, low mood, and stress. For those affected by traumatic experiences, Trauma-Focused Therapy provides focused work to process painful memories and reduce their ongoing impact.

Choosing the right approach is part of the therapeutic process, and Amanda works collaboratively with each person to identify methods that fit their needs, goals, and preferences. She adjusts techniques over time as therapy progresses to ensure the best possible fit.

Online therapy with Amanda is offered via video calls, phone sessions, live chat, or text-based messaging, which provides flexibility for people balancing work, family, or other commitments. These options make it possible to access consistent support from licensed professionals without needing to travel, and they allow therapy to continue across different life circumstances.
