Amanda Wiffen, BACP

Amanda Wiffen is a trained counsellor practising in the United Kingdom who aims to create a warm, calming space where people can move at their own pace. She draws on a natural ability to put others at ease and supports clients to explore their feelings and circumstances so they can feel more in control of their future.

Amanda positions herself as a guide when life feels overwhelming, offering practical resources to use between sessions if that is helpful. She works collaboratively, staying alongside clients through each step of change and helping them find pathways forward when decisions or emotions feel difficult to navigate.

Her experience includes supporting people with stress and anxiety, relationship and family conflicts, parenting challenges, low mood, ADHD and autism, loss and grief, and workplace difficulties. Amanda holds BACP, which is the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, the UK professional body for counsellors and psychotherapists, and she brings that professional framework to her practice.

Therapeutic Approaches and Online Care

Attachment-Based Therapy focuses on how early relationships influence current emotional patterns. It helps people explore connection, trust and attachment issues, and can be useful for those experiencing relationship difficulties, abandonment concerns, or patterns that repeat across relationships.

Client-Centered Therapy emphasizes a compassionate, nonjudgmental therapeutic relationship in which the therapist listens attentively and follows the client's lead. This approach supports self-exploration, builds self-esteem, and can help with stress, low mood, and life transitions.

Amanda treats choice of approach as a collaborative process. She works with each person to identify the methods that best fit their needs, goals and preferences, adjusting techniques as understanding grows so the work feels relevant and manageable.

Online therapy with Amanda is offered by video calls, phone sessions, live chat and text-based messaging, providing flexible options to suit different schedules and communication styles. These formats make it easier to access consistent support from registered professionals without needing to travel, which can help maintain momentum in therapy and fit ongoing care into busy lives.
