About Amanda
Counsellor Amanda Carberry-Tully is a BACP member with six years' experience working in the United Kingdom. She focuses on stress, anxiety, relationship issues, trauma and abuse, self-esteem, coping with life changes, addictions and grief. Amanda also lists help for parenting, anger, career concerns, bipolar and depression among her areas of practice.
Amanda uses a Person-Centred approach that places the client at the centre of the work. She listens without judgment and aims to understand each person's experience. Sessions are aimed at helping people identify their own solutions and set achievable goals at a pace that suits them.
Her way of working includes clear listening and honest feedback. Amanda describes her role as one of support while people find their own answers. People can expect a focus on practical steps and on making things more manageable day to day.
She draws on Solution-Focused ideas when appropriate, helping clients identify small changes that have a real impact. This can be useful for issues like stress, coping with life changes and rebuilding after loss or abuse.
Amanda also works with concerns linked to intimacy, obsessive or compulsive behaviours, phobias and social anxiety. She lists ageing and geriatric issues, domestic violence, infidelity and sexual assault among additional focus areas. The emphasis is on clear conversations about what matters now and what can be done next.
People who wish to try counselling with Amanda are asked to follow the normal sign-up steps on the site, complete a short questionnaire and arrange an initial session. Sessions are offered in English and she accepts international clients.
How Amanda uses Person-Centred and Solution-Focused work online
Person-Centred Therapy puts the client at the centre. The therapist listens attentively, reflects what she hears and helps the person make sense of their own experience. This approach can help with feelings of shame, low self-esteem, grief and recovery after abuse.Solution-Focused Therapy looks for small, practical steps that move things forward. Sessions focus on identifying what is already working and building on it. This can be useful for stress, coping with life changes, and setting clear short-term goals.
Choosing an approach is part of the work. Amanda will talk with the client about needs, goals and preferences and decide together what fits best. The aim is a collaborative plan that can be changed as the work progresses.
