About Amanda
Amanda Lacey is a counsellor working in the United Kingdom. She helps people who are struggling with stress, anxiety, grief, low self-esteem and depression. She also supports those dealing with family problems and relationship difficulties related to separation and communication.
Amanda keeps sessions straightforward and calm. She aims to build an open space where people can talk without feeling judged. She invites clients to say what matters most and to set practical goals together.
Background and approach
Her approach draws on several methods, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Existential Therapy and mindfulness. She uses these tools to help people spot unhelpful thinking, notice what gives life meaning, and practise simple awareness skills that reduce overwhelm. Amanda has three years of professional experience and holds NCPS.
She focuses on helping people find clearer thinking and steadier moods rather than promising quick fixes. She encourages gradual steps and realistic changes. Sessions tend to be conversational and reflective.
Amanda listens for patterns in thinking and behaviour, then suggests small experiments or new ways of handling situations. Many clients find this practical style useful for coping with everyday pressures and ongoing worries.

Online support
Approaches you can use online
Amanda draws on Existential Therapy and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to help people untangle difficult feelings. Existential Therapy focuses on questions about meaning, choice and feeling stuck, which can help when life feels empty or overwhelming. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, or CBT, looks at the link between thoughts, feelings and actions and offers practical steps to change unhelpful patterns.She also uses Mindfulness Therapy to help people stay present and reduce reactivity. That approach teaches short practices that can be used during stressful moments and over time to steady the mood. Amanda aims to work collaboratively and will help clients decide which approach fits their needs, goals and preferences rather than relying on a single method.
Online sessions are available by video call, phone, live chat or text messaging, giving flexibility for different lifestyles. Video calls are useful for face-to-face conversation, phone sessions suit people with limited bandwidth, and text or chat can make brief check-ins easier between appointments. These options help people fit therapy around work, family duties or other commitments while keeping focus on steady progress.
