Mandy Elliott

Mandy Elliott is a professional therapeutic counsellor and a fully registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) in the UK, with 8 years of professional experience.

Her work follows an integrative approach - she draws on Person-Centred therapy, Transactional Analysis (TA) and Gestalt methods to tailor sessions to each person’s needs.

She is experienced in working with adults and young people and has several years of experience supporting younger adults in higher education aged 16-22. She has helped clients with depression, anxiety, stress, trauma, abuse and other difficulties.

She works from the belief that each person is the expert of their own story and that their existing strengths can support them to overcome challenging situations.

Her passion is helping individuals to heal. She provides a safe and non-judgemental environment where people can discuss their issues and difficulties in confidence, with a focus on fostering self-understanding, confidence and self-worth.

As a practising Buddhist, several years of training in meditation and mindfulness inform her approach. This practice was an important part of her own healing journey and she is passionate about sharing these techniques with others.

Her aim is to empower people to grow in the ways that matter most to them. She recognises that taking the first step toward therapy can be difficult and acknowledges the strength involved in reaching out. She welcomes questions from anyone considering working with her.
