About Amanda
NCPS. 5 years' experience. Amanda Crane works from the United Kingdom and offers counselling grounded in person-centred and solution-focused ways of working. She uses these approaches to help people with stress, anxiety, relationship and family concerns, grief, parenting challenges, addictions, LGBT issues, trauma and abuse, intimacy-related issues and other life changes.
Amanda describes her practice as person centred, which means the conversation is guided by the client’s priorities and experiences. She also uses solution-focused work to identify small, practical steps that can make day-to-day life easier. Those methods are applied to a wide range of concerns, from sleep and eating difficulties to anger, self-esteem and career questions.
She draws on elements of cognitive behavioural and mindfulness approaches when helpful, alongside motivational interviewing and psychodynamic ideas. That mix is used to address areas such as ADHD, attachment and relationship patterns, body image, chronic pain and caregiver stress. The emphasis is on talking through problems and finding practical ways forward.
Amanda has stated experience supporting parents and family-related problems, and she mentions work with issues such as divorce, blended family adjustment and commitment concerns. She also notes work with trauma, dissociation and antisocial personality concerns, and with ageing and geriatric matters.
Sessions are offered in English. International clients are not currently accepted. Prospective clients are asked to use the site process to be matched and to schedule a first appointment.
How Amanda applies counselling approaches in online work
Amanda uses client-centred counselling, which means the conversation follows what the person brings and focuses on understanding their experience. This approach suits people who want conversational, reflective work and support naming their feelings and priorities.She also draws on cognitive behavioural therapy, which looks at links between thoughts, feelings and actions and helps people try small practical changes. CBT techniques are often used for anxiety, low mood, sleep and coping with stressful routines.
Finding the right approach is part of the work together. Amanda will discuss your goals, preferences and how you respond to different methods, and then agree a way forward that combines the most useful elements. That decision is collaborative and can change as the work progresses.
