About Amanda
Amanda Guest is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who supports people facing stress, anxiety, addictions, trauma and abuse, and life changes. She works with concerns such as self-esteem, grief, relationship and intimacy issues, eating concerns, parenting stress, anger, depression, bipolar, ADHD and compassion fatigue. Amanda uses a collaborative style and treats each person as an individual. She encourages people who are ready to try something different to take that first step.
Amanda believes people do best when they are given space and respect to work on what matters to them. In sessions she listens closely and helps clients set practical goals they feel able to try between meetings. The emphasis is on clear conversations, small steps and building confidence over time.
Her approach draws on attachment-based ideas, client-centred work and cognitive behavioural techniques to help people understand patterns and make changes. Emotionally-focused and existential perspectives are also part of her toolkit when clients want to explore feelings or life meaning.
She has eight years of experience as a practising counsellor and holds NCPS as a professional credential. Amanda works with people from different backgrounds and accepts international clients. She encourages people to consider what they want from counselling and to choose a pace that feels manageable.

Therapy approaches that translate to online counselling
Amanda uses attachment-based work which looks at patterns in close relationships and how they shape present feelings and reactions; this can help with relationship strain, abandonment worries and issues with trust. Client-centred therapy features warm listening and invites clients to set the pace and agenda; it suits people who want a respectful, person-led space to talk. Cognitive behavioural therapy, or CBT, focuses on identifying unhelpful thoughts and testing practical experiments to change behaviour and mood.Finding the right approach is part of the process. Amanda aims to work collaboratively to decide which methods fit a person’s needs and goals. She will adapt sessions based on what a person prefers and how they respond over time, so the plan can change as progress is made.
Please confirm available session formats before booking, as the biography does not list them. Online work can make it easier to fit counselling into a busy week, reduce travel time and allow shorter check-ins when needed. Many people find that remote sessions help them keep momentum between appointments while still working on relationship patterns, coping after trauma or managing anxiety and addictions.
