About Amanda
Amanda Burridge works with people facing stress, anxiety, depression and life changes. She welcomes conversations about grief, loss and health-related concerns such as coping with cancer. Amanda also helps with relationship strain, self-esteem, sleeping difficulties and parenting challenges.
She is a BACP counsellor and presents as calm and easy to talk to. Across sessions Amanda focuses on building a trusting relationship. She uses a gentle, curious and compassionate manner that can include light humour when appropriate.
Background and approach
The aim is to help people notice small shifts and possibilities rather than rush to fix everything at once. Amanda draws on Client-Centred Therapy to place the person’s experience at the centre of the work. She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy to help people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and try practical changes.
These approaches are used alongside conversation about real-life pressures such as caregiving, career stress and midlife transitions. People bring concerns about parenting, pregnancy and postpartum changes, ageing and end-of-life matters to sessions. Amanda also supports those facing guilt, shame, attachment questions and communication problems.
Her background includes work with bereavement and hospice-related situations, which informs how she discusses loss and grief. Sessions are offered in English and take place online by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Amanda has four years of professional experience and is registered with the BACP, the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Approaches Amanda lists
Listing an approach is not evidence of training in it. This directory copies what each counsellor names and does not check training records.
Online support
She also uses Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT to help identify unhelpful thoughts and test small behavioural changes. CBT is practical and often useful for anxiety, low mood and sleep problems where thinking patterns affect feelings and actions.
Choosing an approach is a collaborative process. Amanda works with each person to decide what feels most useful for their goals and preferences. She adjusts the way she uses these methods as the work progresses so it fits the individual’s needs.
Online sessions offer flexibility for different situations. Video calls are good for face-to-face conversation and reading body language. Phone sessions can fit into a short break or when bandwidth is limited. Live chat and text-based messaging suit brief check-ins, ongoing support between sessions or when someone prefers writing to speaking.
These formats make it easier to arrange appointments around work, family commitments or health constraints while still working with registered or accredited professionals and therapists.
