About Amanda

Amanda Parry is a BACP counsellor in the United Kingdom with three years' practice. She works with stress, anxiety, relationship and trauma-related concerns and draws on several psychotherapeutic models to guide sessions.

She describes her work as integrative and client-centred, combining talking therapy with dream work and imagery to help people notice new perspectives. Sessions are conversational and reflective; she aims to open up how people make sense of their experiences rather than give quick fixes. People bring issues such as grief, low self-esteem, intimacy struggles, depression and compassion fatigue.

Parry also works with more specific themes including abandonment and attachment issues, body image, commitment concerns, dissociation, family of origin problems and the emotional impact of cancer. She supports people coping with life changes such as divorce, midlife shifts and questions of life purpose. ADHD related difficulties and feelings of emptiness or isolation are within her stated focus areas.

Her approach references psychodynamic and Jungian ideas alongside trauma-focused and existential perspectives. That means she pays attention to patterns from past relationships, inner imagery and the meanings people make, as well as responses that follow traumatic events. Therapy includes regular supervision as part of her professional practice.

Sessions are offered in English and Amanda asks prospective clients to use the site process to select options, complete a short questionnaire and book a first meeting. Costs vary with location and sessions use a subscription that can be cancelled at any time.

How her approaches shape online counselling

A Client-Centred way of working focuses on listening and helping people find their own solutions. It is suited to worries about anxiety, stress, relationships and changes in life because sessions are driven by what the person brings. Existential ideas attend to questions of meaning and choice, and can help with feelings of emptiness, life-purpose concerns and midlife shifts. Psychodynamic and Jungian-informed work looks at recurring patterns, early relationships and inner imagery such as dreams, which can reveal how past experiences affect present behaviour. These approaches can be useful for attachment difficulties, family of origin issues and complex emotional responses to trauma. Finding the right approach is part of the process. The therapist will work collaboratively to identify which methods fit a person's needs, goals and preferences. That may mean trying different ways of working over several sessions and reflecting together on what helps most. Confirm the session formats before booking as the biography does not list specific delivery methods. Online sessions can make it easier to fit therapy into daily life, for example by reducing travel time, allowing shorter check-ins during a work break, or avoiding video when bandwidth is limited. These practical benefits can help people maintain regular attendance and integrate therapy with everyday commitments.
