Amanda Balaam approaches therapy with empathy, patience and understanding. She strives to provide a safe, non-judgemental space where people can explore their feelings, concerns and personal challenges without pressure.
Her practice draws on a blend of person-centred, cognitive-behavioural and psychodynamic techniques, applied together to address a broad spectrum of emotional and mental health issues.
Having worked for 17 years with individuals facing a wide range of difficulties, Amanda brings considerable experience to her sessions. Whether someone is coping with a recent loss, struggling with anxiety or depression, or simply needs someone to talk to, she offers professional guidance informed by both clinical knowledge and real-world experience.
She holds an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling, reflecting training in combining different therapeutic approaches. Amanda is a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists and adheres to their code of ethics and guidelines, ensuring that sessions are conducted with professionalism, respect and careful attention to the client’s well-being.
Many people wonder whether online therapy can genuinely help. For common concerns such as stress, anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties or navigating life changes, online therapy has been shown to be just as effective as traditional in-person sessions.
A key advantage is flexibility - you can choose the mode of contact that suits you best, whether that is video calls, phone sessions, live chat or in-app messaging. That flexibility can make it much easier to fit therapy into a busy life.
Therapists offering online sessions are licensed professionals, and you have the option to change therapists at any time if you feel a different fit would be better. Online therapy can therefore provide effective support for many everyday mental health and relationship challenges while accommodating individual schedules and preferences.
