Amanda Durrell , BACP

Amanda Durrell is a UK-based counsellor with four years of professional experience who supports people facing stress, anxiety, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, and challenges with motivation, self-esteem and confidence. She works from the view that each person is the expert in their own life and that existing strengths can be drawn on to navigate difficult moments and build new ways of coping.

Amanda is accredited with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which reflects her commitment to recognised professional standards in the United Kingdom. Her practice focuses on creating a respectful, nonjudgmental space where clients can explore emotions, understand patterns and set practical goals. Taking the first step toward therapy often takes courage, and Amanda recognises and affirms that decision as an important start on the path to change.

Client-Centered Care and Accessible Online Sessions

Amanda primarily uses a client-centered approach, which focuses on listening deeply to each person and helping them find their own answers. This style emphasizes empathy, respect and collaboration, and is well suited to issues like anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship struggles and grief because it fosters a trusting environment where clients can explore their thoughts and feelings at their own pace.

Finding the right therapeutic approach is part of the work together. Amanda will collaborate with each client to identify the methods and pace that best match their needs, goals and preferences, adapting the way she works as trust and insight develop.

Online therapy offers practical flexibility - sessions can take place by video call or phone, and shorter conversations can be held via live chat or text messaging. These options make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, support continuity of care when schedules change, and allow clients to access licensed professionals and therapists from locations across the United Kingdom.
