About Mandy
Mandy Hedges offers a warm, client-focused approach to counselling. She draws on 15 years of experience to help people who are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed or stuck. Mandy aims to create a straightforward space where people can talk through what is happening and work toward practical change.
Her practice blends Client-Centred Therapy with Cognitive Behavioural Therapy and Jungian ideas. That means conversations start with what matters to the person, then may include looking at unhelpful thought patterns and personal meanings that affect mood and behaviour.
Background and approach
Mandy works with a wide range of concerns including stress, addictions, trauma and abuse, grief and compassion fatigue. She also supports people dealing with relationship and intimacy-related issues, eating and body image problems, bipolar difficulties and major life changes.
She gives attention to attachment and abandonment worries, communication and control issues, chronic pain or long-term illness, and the fallout from divorce, separation or domestic violence. Mandy also addresses gender dysphoria, LGBT questions, fatherhood concerns and issues around guilt, shame and forgiveness. Mandy is registered with BACP and NCPS.
She offers sessions in English from the United Kingdom and uses straightforward therapeutic tools so people can try out different ways to cope and feel better.

Approaches Mandy 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 (CBT), which breaks problems into thoughts, feelings and actions. CBT is practical and can help with anxiety, depression, addictions and unhelpful coping habits through exercises and short-term experiments.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. Mandy will collaborate with each person to choose methods that match their aims, needs and preferences. That might mean trying a few approaches and adjusting as progress is made.
Online sessions offer flexibility and make it easier to fit therapy into a busy schedule. Video calls allow face-to-face conversation, phone sessions are useful when bandwidth is limited, live chat suits quick check-ins and text-based messaging supports ongoing reflection between sessions. These options help people maintain continuity of care and access support from different locations.
