About Amanda
Amanda Guest is a counsellor based in the United Kingdom who helps people with stress, anxiety, addictions and trauma. She also supports people dealing with low self-esteem, relationship and intimacy issues, grief, parenting strain and work-related worries. Amanda works with mood concerns such as depression and bipolar features and with people facing challenges linked to ADHD, eating and anger.
She accepts international clients and runs sessions in English. She uses an individualised approach that gives people space to speak and to think.
Background and approach
Sessions are collaborative - the client and counsellor decide together what to focus on. Amanda says small practical steps and honest conversation can shift things over time. Her practice draws on existential ideas that notice life choices, meaning and personal responsibility.
Attachment-based work looks at how early bonds shape current relationships and emotional patterns. Client-centred methods keep the person’s experience at the heart of sessions and help build trust and self-understanding. Amanda has eight years of counselling experience and holds NCPS as a professional credential.
She values straightforward, respectful conversation and aims to treat each person as an individual rather than a label. People typically meet her by video call, phone, live chat or messaging. The first meeting explores what matters now and how to set goals together.
Amanda says taking the first step is often the hardest part and she welcomes practical, honest conversations about change.

Online support
How Amanda’s approaches work in online therapy
Amanda uses existential ideas to help people think about meaning, choice and the direction of their life. This approach can help when someone feels stuck, questioned about purpose, or faces big life changes. Attachment-based work looks at how early relationships shape current feelings and patterns; it is useful for improving communication, managing emotional triggers and building safer connections.She also uses client-centred methods that prioritise your experience and pace. That means sessions focus on what you say matters and the counsellor offers attentive listening and reflection. Together you decide which approaches to use so the work fits your goals and preferences rather than following a fixed plan.
Online therapy with Amanda can take place by video call, phone, live chat or text-based messaging. Video calls suit face-to-face style conversation, phone sessions can be easier with low bandwidth or when you prefer not to be on camera, live chat works well for shorter check-ins and messaging lets you write between sessions. These options make it easier to fit therapy around work, family and travel while keeping the focus on steady progress.
