About Mandy
Mandy Greaves is a counsellor and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). She has five years of professional experience and works with stress, anxiety, relationship issues, grief, self-esteem, depression, addictions, trauma and abuse, anger, coping with life changes and ADHD.
Mandy describes herself as an integrative counsellor. That means she draws on ideas from different counselling models and uses a mix of practical interventions. Sessions are paced to suit each person and focus on the issues that matter most right now.
Most sessions include talking through thoughts and feelings, noticing patterns that keep problems going, and trying small changes or new skills between meetings. Mandy aims to make sessions straightforward and down to earth so people can try things out without pressure.
She follows the BACP code of practice and takes part in regular clinical supervision. Her approach is structured around clear goals and practical steps, while keeping to professional standards expected in the United Kingdom.
Information about training and methods is available on her website. Before booking, people are advised to check current session options and any local variations in cost or format.
Therapeutic approaches and working online
Integrative counselling blends ideas from different evidence-based techniques so sessions can focus on what helps most. For example, talk-based work looks at unhelpful thought patterns and teaches simple coping skills to reduce anxiety and low mood. Another common strand is grief-focused support, which helps people make sense of loss and learn practical ways to manage reminders and difficult days.Finding the right method is part of the work. The counsellor will discuss options in early sessions and agree a plan based on your needs, goals and preferences. This is a collaborative process so adjustments can be made as you go along.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online sessions can make it easier to fit counselling into a weekday or work break and can reduce travel time. They also allow for shorter check-ins by phone if that suits a particular day, or video meetings when a fuller discussion is helpful. Registered or accredited professionals can explain which format will best match the work you want to do and practical arrangements for appointments.
