About Amanda
NCPS. 6 years of professional experience. Amanda Wayling-Yates works in the United Kingdom and offers counselling for a broad range of concerns including stress, anxiety, anger, self-esteem and motivation. She also helps people manage life changes and relationship and intimacy-related issues.
Amanda uses a client-centred approach and describes the person in the room as the expert on their own story. Sessions focus on listening, reflecting and helping clients notice their own strengths. This is practical work that aims to increase confidence and day-to-day coping.
She has experience with mental health concerns such as depression, bipolar and ADHD, and with trauma and abuse, grief and compassion fatigue. Eating and sleeping problems, panic and social anxiety, self-harm and issues around body image also feature in her practice. Workplace stress and career matters are included as well.
The counsellor also lists additional focus areas such as autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, communication problems, dissociation and feelings of emptiness. She names guilt, shame and forgiveness among topics she can help people process.
Sessions are presented as collaborative. Amanda aims to support clients who want to build motivation, manage strong emotions and improve relationships with others. People who value being heard and who want to practise new ways of coping may find this approach helpful.

Client-centred approaches and remote counselling
Amanda uses client-centred therapy, which means sessions begin with listening and reflection. The counsellor encourages people to talk through what matters to them and to notice their own strengths; this approach often helps with self-esteem, motivation and coping with life changes.Finding the right approach is part of the work. She will discuss goals and preferences with each person and together they will decide which ways of working suit the issue and the individual. This is a collaborative process and may change over time as needs evolve.
Session formats are not specified in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Online counselling can make it easier to fit sessions around work, childcare and other commitments, and can reduce travel time. It can also allow shorter check-ins when a quick update is needed or phone conversations when video is difficult. Registered or accredited professionals and therapists use a range of approaches remotely, and Amanda will explain how her client-centred work translates to the session format you agree.
